Despite all her attempts she has not been able to deceive her husband into abolishment. She'd met with all the important dignitaries and members of the House of Castle. None accepted to support her in her devious plans to empower the king. It was not a reason of respect or due to not seeing eye to eye. They simply feared the king.

Even though the king was an arrogant man and the queen despised him, he always sought advice from his wife, the queen. She was pragmatic and tactical, and so the king used these qualities to his advantage. The king wanted to expand his control and his plan was to invade other towns and villages in the outskirts of his lands and subliminally invade them; “Nothing aggressive or barbaric” said the queen. Diplomacy was key to the occupation of these lands. They were small civic towns and villages that had limited resources and no defenses; therefore empathy would have been the most appropriate diplomatic approach. The queen assisted her king in the process constantly. The king’s initial steps were to voluntarily provide these villages with an excess of necessary resources in addition to several other provisions. Such as mud bricks for construction, chariots and carts to move such heavy equipment and other obstacles that could not be trans located by hand or even by the gathering of several men. At this stage the queen had flipped the switch that turned on her devious and conniving side. She told the king to begin retracting the goods and resources he’s providing these small towns with.

She advised the ruler to start withdrawing the products and assets he's giving these residential areas. At the point when the ruler inquired as to why all she said was, "By taking ceaselessly the things that they never had, you will make shock and unbalance.". The lord was baffled. He didn't comprehend the reason for his significant other's arrangement, so she expounded. "By making unbalance everybody in these town are at hazard from each other, in this manner you coast in on sublime white steed and propose a merger.
