After such a long period of peace and prosperity, there were few alive who could remember King GarGar’s exploits on the field of battle, or Queen Pirouette’s mild governance. It is human nature to accept the good things in life as par for the course. This would explain the outrage among the citizens of Catapolis when the Crown Prince, GarGar Two rode his horse over and killed a pedestrian.  

     Mobs broke into storehouses and stole the grain. Shops had their windows smashed. Merchants were attacked in the streets. Fires were set. Pandemonium reigned supreme.
