A Wonder of All Ages

Everybody wanted to see such a historic wonder after all.

When something marvelous happened, whoever arrived earlier had a bigger chance. Everyone had the same view. Nobody wanted to be left behind.

In the Royal Palace, an officer reported to the king, "Your highness. There is a marvelous scene that suddenly happened. It is a hot summer at the moment, yet outside the capital, there appears an ice mountain which freezes the land over a hundred miles away. The ice is so cold that it will never melt. That's a wonderful scene. It must be a good sign. It means the gods are blessing our kingdom… I think…"

All the men in the Royal Palace kept praising the king.

"It must be the reward from the gods for our beloved king who is always hardworking and cares for his people… He is the one true king of all ages…"

"Long live the king!"

"What a wise king!"

"The king… will unite the whole land and rule forever…"
