Snippet #1388993

Enzo was gathered at the gallows where the Darken boy was going to be killed. There were crowds of people flocking into the clearing that had been empty just moments ago. They were spewing profanities about the Darken and arguing with each other about exactly how they should go about killing the child. It was terrible and the propaganda that was being fed to the people by the king was all a bunch of lies. It was almost ridiculous how easily everyone here was so swayed by this to the point where they felt more powerful than anyone else in the world. Enzo just watched these low level scum bags laugh and flaunt their power over whoever that was watching them. He wasn't exactly sure who they were trying to impress yet; It didn't really matter. The only thing that mattered at this moment was to find a way to get this Darken 'demon' child out of this and to safety to help create a perfect balance within the world.
He began to walk through the crowds as the carriage came into the courtyard of the gallows. He also noticed the king and his son Ray. He knew Ray fairly well and had had several times to speak with him. He was nothing like his father. From what he knew about reading people, Enzo could tell that Ray didn't like the way he ran the Sangar. He thought of him as a tyrant and a dictator who only did things his way. Ray was a smart child and he knew that no one could make up his mind for the child.
Enzo needed to do this now or never. If he waited much longer he would be struggling so much with guards that he wouldn't be able to save him and he could possibly die also. He did want to make this a spectacle though. If he was going to do this, he wanted to sway the trust in the people for their king as well. Make them think this was all his doing. Everything was set up and it was going to go as planned. He just had to wait for the very moment that he saw right to pull this off perfectly.
