The Sage of Einar

King Mael sat on a chair that he had not destroyed in his attack on Iran and with his hands caressed her hundreds.

'The situation is too critical. Although Baron Aed can stop the attacks of the Norse, it is very likely that things will get completely out of control when his barony ends up being conquered.

If the words of the messenger are true, then the Nordic army is unstoppable and it will not take long for Movistar the barony of Tuam.

So his next point to conquer would be the capital. Then I have to decide whether to stay in this place and fight bravely or escape. '

King Mael sighed and closed his eyes. 'The decisions are quite complicated. To begin with, if I stay I would be honoring my son and my honor.

At least if I die I will do it fighting like that. I do not doubt that there is a place for me in heaven.

But do I really want to die in this place? '

The room was silent while King Mael pondered his options, that lasted until a bishop dressed in white robes entered the room.

"King Mael I heard about what happened on the border with the kingdom of Thomond. I think we should leave this place.

It is very likely that we will lose against the Nordic army however we could visit the baronies of Castlebar and Killala.

Where we could replenish our troops to form at least an army of about 1000 soldiers, I know that they are too few men to be able to face an unstoppable army.

However, we could take some ships that would take us to the kingdom of Breifne, where we could join the army of the coalition that is being formed.

At least that way, we would have the right to get our lands back. I know it will be quite a lonely adventure and maybe not worth it.

But I think that is the only thing we can do because staying here is a real suicide. I am sure that the Nordics would not take more than a week to break our defenses.

However, if we fought with the coalition army, things would be completely different, as we could prepare ourselves to be able to destroy the enemy.

I urge you to please listen to my words as you are the last person in the family line of the kingdom of Ui Maine.

I think that would be the best option we have, although I could also respect his decision to want to stay and fight to the death.

But then what would exist for the kingdom of Ui Maine? "

King Mael took a deep breath and raised his head to look at the bishop. "Suffragan, we've known each other since we were both children.

You know very well that I am impulsive, but I think this time I will listen to you. I will take what is left of our army and we will go to the barony of Castlebar.

Perhaps we could even increase the number of warriors in our hands. Mairead will also depart with us.

She is pregnant with my son, who would say that a relationship with a maid when I was drunk would be the last chance to save the kingdom of Ui Maine.

I hope you do not mind that a simple servant has the heir to the kingdom; I am almost sure that the baby in her womb must be a boy. "

Bishop Suffragan looked at King Mael with a feigned smile. "You can be sure that I will personally take care of the maid Mairead and your son.

Because there is no one else in the bloodline succession, I think it doesn't matter if he is a bastard child or a formed child of marriage.

Although you do allow me to say it, I think the ideal would be for them to have a quick wedding so that the child has been immediately legitimized.

I will personally preside over the wedding so that you are united in sacred marriage and your son has every right to inherit the kingdom. "

King Mael sighed and opened his arms to him. "I think we could get married today because in two days we will leave the capital.

Since I don't think Baron Aed can long stop the Nordic army, those damn bastards are too unpredictable and could even lay siege to Tuam Castle and send troops to the capital.

In that case, we will be in danger because they could reach us in their advance and I am sure that at that moment we would all be completely dead because there is no way we could escape at that moment. "

Bishop Suffragan nodded and left the room. When the door closed as he left that place, his face became one of anger.

This because he was extremely angry that his plan to take over the kingdom could fail, so he decided to advance his plans.

At night, the most important people of the city and some guards were gathered in the battlement tower of the castle.

King Mael had done it that way because his friend Bishop Suffragan had recommended that it was better to have warriors on the outer walls than inside the battlement tower.

Well, he had no point in protecting something that was already a safe place, because everyone in the city was loyal to the king, so it was a waste to overprotect the wedding venue.

Most of the guests and the warriors in the battlement tower were enjoying the beer and food that was available for the event.

Although no one realized that there were a small number of people who did not touch the food or the beer, they just kept talking to the guests while pretending to be drinking or eating.

After an hour, it was start the wedding ceremony for this all the guests gathered around the designated area to be able to make the wedding.

King Mael wore linen clothes decorated with gold thread, while the servant had a white dress that was a little tight because of her state of pregnancy.

When the two were standing face to face, Bishop Suffragan spoke with a gratifying smile on his face.

"Today we are gathered to carry out this sacred marriage ceremony, where King Mael will marry Mairead a simple servant ..."

When he finished saying those words, all those who had eaten food fell to the ground where they could not move any part of their body.

Bishop Suffragan started laughing as he looked at his stupid friend with a big smile.

"Mael, I once told you that you were too naive. You are going to die today and no one will remember that the Kingdom of Ui Maine ever existed.

For in its place, it will be replaced with the sacred name of the Archbishopric of Maine, a place controlled by the holy Church of Our Lord.

Your sacrifice will be remembered as that of the king who died fighting to defend this capital, but don't worry at all. "

Bishop Suffragan bent down and with his hand cupped Mael's chin so she could see the joy on his face.

"When the coalition army triumphs against these damned pagans, we will take back these lands and I will personally rule this place as a king.

I always wanted to be the one to rule this kingdom and thanks to you I will be able to do so. "

With his right hand, Bishop Suffragan took a dagger and slowly buried it in Mael's eye until he pierced through his brain, killing him.

At that moment, he got up and ordered to clean the place.
