The King and the Attendant
A Truly Heart-Wrenching and Beautiful Story +Some Beautiful Art to go with it~ — Spoiler — Explaination Theory #1: King wants to drag the Attendant along with him to death and along to Hell... *Attendant probably fell for the King which explains the end, and knowing that the Attendant love him, the King had the Attendant commit suicide. *Attendant loves him — pg. 8 as he cries + the line he says on pg. 9 "Your wish is my command, milord." Explanation Theory #2: King knew that he was being poisoned from the start, but since the *King loved the Attendant, he kept silent and continued drinking the poison for ten years. And finally, when on his deathbed, the King calls for the Attendant and holds out a gun, commanding the Attendant to follow him to death together with him. The Attendant cries and (probably waits till the King has passed to kill himself or–) kills himself immediately as the King dies on the bed. *Referring back to pg. 7+8 Explanation Theory #2 probably seems to make more sense.
