There was once a wise King who governs his nation in prudence and righteousness. His delight is to praise God and exercise justice to his people, he is a great leader that knows how to execute and implement his laws and ordinances inspired by God’s love and wisdom. There are times that his kingdom couldn’t avoid wars against other countries and an empire, to defend his territory is the typical thing to do for a King who loves his citizens. He always asks for God’s advice if he will join the legion or stay in his palace, he is an obedient man who walks after God’s advisory and has faith that whatever God said, it is the final say.

One afternoon, while the King is waiting for his soldiers’ homecoming from an enormous battle, he decided to elevate himself and go to the highest part of his fortress, he wants to check if the territorial armies are near the gate, he used his binoculars, amidst of thorough looking to the gate, he starts to wonder what are the happenings around his grand palace and start to sight see for awhile. Accidentally, his sharp binoculars captured something really enticing, a naked woman bathing, and this is not simple scenery of nudity, the woman is extremely pleasing to his eyes. 

As a result, he asked his advisers to tell him who that woman is, after some data gathering, they’ve told him that the woman is the wife of one of his soldier, and he felt disappointed to know she belongs to someone. However, he can’t reject the idea of having the woman on his side, he demanded to summon the woman, and she came, and they slept together. And the woman got pregnant from the kings’. The King felt anxious to know that the husband of his desirable woman will come back from the great battle. He asked a servant to muster the soldier so they could talk, and the King realized that a soldier is an upright man and indeed a loyal warrior who is willing to die for the King’s throne. The King insisted the soldier go back home quick and enjoy his time with his family. The soldier refused, because he believes a soldier should not enjoy unless he confirms that all fellow soldier came home at once, he is willing to prolong his courteousness and will stay to ensure everyone is already in peace. The King have been told that the soldier remains in his palace and didn’t go home, he felt so furious with this news and came up with a wicked plan, he wrote a note to the troop’s leader, and he writes like this; 

“This is your King; I demanded you to send the guy who will bring you this letter to the front row when the war is in heat and make sure he will die, don’t come home unless the order is fulfilled.”
