King Wu stared out impassively over all he ruled, over his entire domain. A slight breeze ruffled his truly ancient beard, and he heaved a deep sigh. He would give up this entire empire for what he truly desired. He felt an inexpressible longing for something that he could not define pounding in his heart, as the last rays of the dying day flickered through the trees.
“Wu! Dinner!” cried the servant.
An immense smile creased his timeworn face. Yes, this was what he was waiting for. A simple meal. He was completely satisfied as he carefully stepped towards his meal.
