Before King Alfred could voice his objections, the figure began unwrapping the cloth, revealing a face that was strikingly similar to his own. It was as if he were gazing into a distorted mirror, reflecting back his very features.

A sinister grin spread across the man in the lab coat's lips. "Oh, but my trust in you has long since evaporated, Alfred. Therefore, you must be removed, to make room for my pawn to ascend to your throne."
