The kingdom’s official announcement came two days after that conversation. It was all information that the boys already knew or had predicted so far, like the fact that King Roy had obtained proof of the duke’s connection with the organized gangs, that those left in Orstoll who had assisted in his unlawful doings had now been detained, and that most of the nobility had declared in favor of the king.

However, there was one new fact which shocked them: Roy and Fielle’s marriage was fake, a temporary measure to prevent an attack on Fielle’s life from the duke. Not only was she not married to Roy, but she wasn’t even in love with him. In fact, she loved a completely separate person and only pretended to be married to protect their partnership. The king apologized to his people for the deception and, to prove his credibility, had this proclamation stamped with the seal of the priest who performed their ceremony.

This caused an enormous stir among the citizenry and, of course, the squires.

“Queen Fielle isn’t actually married to King Roy?!” the boys spluttered. “No way!”

Everyone knew they were the image of a loving married couple, but that, apparently, had never been true. The boys had fully bought into this story and were mind-blown.

After all the fuss died down, the real issue dawned on one of the boys. “Wait a minute, if King Roy and Queen Fielle aren’t married...”

The other boys then realized it too.

“The king has another wife...” one murmured.

“Yeah, and she’s our friend,” another said. “And considering she’s married to the king...”

This friend they mentioned in such incredulous tones was King Roy’s “second” wife, the one who sparked completely different kinds of rumors than Fielle. To the squires, she was their resident little devil, the infamous number one troublemaker of the north dorm.

Everyone pictured this slight boy—girl, rather—with her short haircut.

“Wait, so... If the king’s not actually married to his first wife, does that make his second wife his...first wife again? I guess?”

They all tried to imagine their friend Heath standing in Queen Fielle’s shoes. Even if someone cleaned her up and put her in a queenly dress, they knew she would still be wearing one of her devious, most unqueenly grins as she cooked up some new diabolical scheme. The boys put their heads in their hands as one.

“You mean she’s our queen?!” one yelled.

Another cried, “This is going to end so poorly!”

Just then, there was a huge thud as someone at the rear of the group fainted. The squires turned and saw exactly who you would expect—Queen.

“Hey, Queen, are you all right?!” a boy yelled.

“Hang in there, man!” said his friend. “There’s still hope!”

“Yeah! You may have been doomed from the start, and it may be even more futile now, but there’s hope all right!”

The squires had good intentions, even if the execution was lacking.

Queen had little hope that Fie would ever return to him, but at least the story had gone that Roy was in love with Fielle. Fie was, as everyone knew, a third wheel in their relationship.
