"Only Prince Orig Desman and his three knights are allowed to enter the Kingdom of Jasmine,"
said the guard through a device attached to the palace gate, which stood a hundred meters high, surrounded by towering walls that enclosed the entire kingdom. Orig was surprised by the guard's words. They had no problem entering the first gate, so why were they being stopped at the main gate leading to the noble district?
"What are you saying? This is my wife, Taya Desman, and she will be accompanying me,"
Orig said in a cold tone. He hated the complications and strange laws of this kingdom; he never understood and never would understand their way of governance.
"Apologies, Your Majesty, but she does not have the required permission to enter. If you want to obtain a permit for her, you will have to wait until next Saturday,"
