The sun shined brightly over the green field. A gentle breeze moved the small sunflower plants as they bloomed.
A wall with a large gate separated the field in half.
Thunderous footsteps of soldiers on the march disturbed the peaceful quietness of the outdoors. Soldiers holding the banners of Prince Rutger marched toward the locked gate.
The gatekeeper stopped them once they arrived at their destination. "What business do you have in the kingdom of Prince Ragnar?" he asked.
The officer in charge looked down at the gatekeeper from atop his horse. "We have orders from Prince Rutger," he said. "We are going to storm his castle."
