Chapter 5 - This part happens in place apart from the main place.
“Please move your goats, old man.” This is General Majesty speaking. “We are under direct orders of the King Of Europe. Do not defy him!” General Majesty was speaking to a strange old man who was herding a lot of goats across the road. He wanted to march his troops across that road but he couldn’t, because of the goats.
“They are there, General Majesty, because I have something to tell you,” nodded the old man. He smiled, like an old Japanese cleaning woman. General Majesty was kind, and he got people, so he let the strange old man speak, though it was hard to hear him sometimes over the goats.
“Very well, venerable friend. Who are you?” said the General.
“I am the one who will warn you of great danger. Your mission North will end in tragedy and defeat. You will be betrayed, and it will hurt. It will hurt you real bad.”
“I do not believe you. You are just a strange old man.”
But the old man was gone. To General Majesty and Mechanicus and everyone else, it looked as if he just vanished. But the camera focuses on a goat in the herd that looks different. It looks strange and old. It laughs in goat and leads the other goats away, clearing the road. General Majesty shrugs and leads his troops on down the road.
“Who would betray us?” said Mechanicus to General Majesty some time later. “Who would betray the King?”
“Maybe you, Mechanicus. Ever think of that?”
“Well, what about you?” snapped Mechanicus cleverly. At that, General Majesty started crying. He tried not to let Mechanicus know that he was crying, but Mechanicus had known the General since they were both small boys. Mechanicus was sad then, because he didn’t want to have made his friend sad. They hugged and later, Mechanicus made ice-cream for the General and all of his men.
Everyone slept soundly and they forgot all about the strange old man.
