"C'mon Bergamot!" Cardamon frowned, watching as Bergamot, her close friend and neighbor, made his way up the hill slowly. "I'm coming Cardamon," Bergamot shouted back, as he staggered, falling to his hands and knees. "Bergamot!" Cardamon ran back down the hill, kneeling beside him. "Are you alright? Are you hurt?" She asked worriedly, as he struggled to stand. "Bergam-" She gasped, as her gaze met Bergamot's. His eyes were a milky white, giving him the look of one struck blind. "You've gotten The Sight," Cardamon murmured, taking his hand. As the two walked back to the village, Cardamon's mind raced with questions and a deep fear...237Please respect copyright.PENANAp86gwEP77b
It wasn't long after Bergamot had gotten The Sight, that an official, from the king, had come to take Bergamot away. He didn't fight back, like others Cardamon had seen, as the official put Bergamot unto his horse, and rode back to the castle. Cardamon trailed behind, riding one of her father's horses.

The official stood before the king, Bergamot at his side. "Another seer?" The official nodded, pushing Bergamot forward. The king regarded Bergamot curiously. "Alright. Seer, tell me of my future!" He leaned forward on his throne eagerly. "Will I become a more powerful king?" The royal court held its breath, waiting for Bergamot to give the king, a prophecy, as those afflicted with The Sight were known to do...
"A court of corruption, A throne of bones, Betrayal of the King," The court gasped, as Bergamot began. "Shining spears entrenched about the Crown, Shimmering Coins passed around, The King...snared by those he trusted most, The Crown...given to a wicked host... The Splendor of the King reduced to scraps...in a garbage heap..." Bergamot fell silent, the court watching nervously. "Take him away," The king said quietly, and two guards grabbed Bergamot, as the king began to shout. "HE'S A LIAR! TAKE HIM AWAY WITH THE OTHERS!!" 237Please respect copyright.PENANAgHhfrq6IKV
