Thousand's of miles away from antwerp you can see a big prosperous lavish city and Inside of that very big lavish city full of people going about their everyday lives with smiles on their faces, specifically inside of a huge courtroom of a huge luxerious castle full of luxerious dressed nobles you can see a very tall beautiful light skinned woman who looks to be around 5'11 in height with long dark brown hair that looks black, dark brown eyes with a oval shaped face, and a hourglass shaped figure who can be seen gritting her teeth anger while glaring at a very lavished dressed man sitting on a throne with a crown on his head.
(Marguerite de france's POV)
"So, his grace juan has agreed to my proposition to marry my sister off to him before king sigismund's sister princess anna jagiellon who will be wedded In secret and shall be kept secret until politically convenient am I to be clearer." Said the luxerious dressed light skinned middle aged handsome man with a french accent who has a diamond shaped face with a full well groomed beard, dark brown eyes that looks black, long curly hair brushed back and a well 6'5 toned muscular body that could not be hidden under his luxerious attire.
"YES YOUR MAJESTY." Said joseph and all the the nobles in the courtroom loudly in unison with a bow.
Marguerite was trembling and grinding her teeth together in anger and screamed at the top of her lungs "HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME HENRI, DID YOU FORGET WHAT FATHER HAS DECREED, IT IS THAT I SHALL BE ALLOWED TO CHOOSE WHOM TO MARRY."
The whole courtroom fell completely silent in solemnity.
"Princess marguerite…if I may be frank, the previous king is dead, which means that the decree for you to be able to choose a husband no longer holds any value." Said a fat short noble while stepping up and stroking his curly mustache.
"Count claude what is this disrespect, you are in the presence of his majesty, king henri II." Said joseph sternly while getting up from his kneeling position and adjusting his attire.
Count claude sneerd loudly and said with a smirk "I am speaking the truth and shall be allowed to do so since the princess wanted to know why she isn't allowed to marry of free will, woman hold no authority in court so she best know her place by willingly wedding his grace, duke juan manuel de guzman y habsburg."
Suddenly all the nobles in the hall started a uproar, questioning the kings intentions and reign and debating their gains and losses by the princess marrying the duke of medina sidonia, and most definitely wondering why she brought up the previous king's decree.
"HOW DARE YOU, YOU FAT LUMP OF S…" Said marguerite screaming at the top of her lungs with extreme anger being seen on her scrunched face, only to be interrupted immediately.
"SILENCE." Said henri loudly with anger on his face at the nobles questioning their own king of all people.
A heavily armored guard stepped up and screamed at the top of his lungs while placing his hand on his sheath sword that was strapped to his waist "HIS MAJESTY THE KING DEMANDS SILENCE AT ONCE."
The hall became instantly silent, still hearing a few sneers here and their which made a vein appear on henri's forehead from anger.
Marguerite immediately stepped up to the middle of the hall and prostrated herself before henri with a pissed look on her face and said with her eyes closed "Your majesty I may be lacki…"
"I don't care, you are still marrying his grace juan, this marriage is unavoidable and it brings vast amounts of benefits to france and from what I have heard his grace is a upright man so I'm sure he will take good care of you, despite your differences from most women that is." Said henri with a stern voice, looking marguerite straight into her eyes from the throne, which spoke louder than words of we will not speak on this matter again.
Marguerite instantly felt the blood drain from her face and thought while remembering the 6 words, despite your differences from most women "No, no, no, no, no, this cannot be happening, mother and father made sure to prevent this from happening and now he is disrespecting father's decree by invalidating it and choosing france over me, putting his own sister into this position over some mere gains from that so called andalusia."
Marguerite gritted her teeth and clenched her dress tightly in anger and was about to speak but suddenly felt the courtroom start rumbling and heard the nobles erupt into another loud uproar.
"AHHHHHHHHH...F…FUCK" Said henri screaming stutteringly at the top of his lungs in agony as his body started to soak in full sweat as a golden color started to take form around it.
"Y…YOUR MAJESTY ARE YOU ALRIGHT." Said a muscular noble screaming at the top of his lungs stutteringly with a worried and horrified look on his face from what he was currently witnessing and hearing from the king.
"YOUR MAJESTY I'LL GO FETCH THE PHYSCIAN IMM…ARGH." Said the heavily armored guard, only to suddenly fall to the floor and a blue aura like color start to surround his whole body.
"Wha…what is happening." Said marguerite stutteringly while immediately getting up from the floor and looked around at all the nobles in the hall with different colors surrounding their bodies with a shocked and and look full of fear forming on her face like the world was ending.
Henri breathed hardly with large amounts of sweat dripping down his face and looked at both of his hand in shock while clenching them from the sudden newfound rise strength and vigor that he feels and most definitely at the golden color surrounding his whole body and thought "What is this strange strange golden color surrounding my body, I feel like I can control it"
"YOUR MAJESTY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO U…ARGGHHH." Said a random noble screaming at the top of his lungs in agony with his body covered in full sweat on the floor, a red color forming around his body.
"YOUR MAJE…AHHHHHHH." Said another random noble dropping to the floor screaming in ininsurmountable pain as a dark green color started to surround his body.
Henri had a shocked look on his face at the whole courtroom that changed in a matter of minutes from one full of greed to now one of utter agony and was about to speak but was interrupted.
*BOOOM*
A guard burst into the hall and was about to speak up but froze at seeing some nobles screaming on the floor in pain and said loudly with a look of fear and sweat on his face at the golden color surrounding his own kings body "Y…your majesty their has been cases of peasants dropping in pain and developing colors around their bodies all throughout the the cities, we suspect it's a witches doing."
"WHAT." Said henri loudly with shock at the news but suddenly looked a the golden aura surrounding his own body and suddenly had the urge to will for it to disappear which made it disappear instantly and the castle stop rumbling.
"It actually works." Said henri with a genuine smile of happiness appearing on his face.
"Y…your majesty." Said the guard in shock at the golden color surrounding the kings body disappearing and suddenly had a overjoyed look on his face at the feeling of the end of the world disappearing.
Henri immediately stood up from his throne and said loudly with his arms spread open "Send my decree that this is the gift from the one true god and that we shall all develope and master these strange colors and also investigate if there are cases like this happening in other empires and duchies."
"Yes your majesty, I shall complete this order with haste." Said the guard immediately with a bow and started leaving the hall quickly.
"B…brother I shall take my leave to fetch some physicians for the nobles." Said marguerite immediately while leaving quickly out of the hall with sweat on her forehead to fetch physician's with count claude and count joseph who didn't dare to speak and seem to have anything wrong with them and followed after her with sweat dripping down both of their faces also and made eye contact with each other that had a mutual understanding of that the world will not be the same after this.
Henri watched as his sister took her leave with both of the nobles and disappears from sight with them and looked back down at his left hand and internally willed for the color to appear again and suddenly saw the golden color appeare around his hand again while suddenly changing into a huge golden sword that floated over it.
Henri had a astounded but surprised look on his face at his imagination actually being formed from the golden color and thought immediately with obvious worry being seen deep within his eyes "The world is about to change for the better or worse"
…
THE END…
