A Well Deserved Retirement

Berengar sat in the countryside of Austria, far away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolis which he created. Living in the village of Hallstatt was a unique kind of peace, one which he was happy to experience in his old age. 

The small mountain village surrounded a beautiful crystal lake, one where Berengar would often sit at the beach with his wives, drink beer, and enjoy the outdoors. Something which he had not been able to properly do for years. 

The stress of running the world's mightiest empire evaporated overnight, as Berengar retreated to the countryside with his wives and concubines. Every day was bliss. He ate the finest home cooked food; he made love to his many beautiful women, and on occasion, his children would visit with their own families, where he would play the part of a doting grandfather.
