The Veil of Lies
Storyboard Text
- Palace Courtyard
- WHAT?!
- Come quickly! The queen has passed away, my prince!
- Shut up! JUST SHUT UP! My mother was the greatest woman alive! You are just a secondary royal, nothing to look at! Right, father?
- Your mother did not really do much but stay in her room or play with you. It was not the kind of behavior I looked for in my first queen. You do cry too much. To your room. Do not let me catch you bad-mouthing your mother ever again!
- Queen Rebecca's Bedroom
- d
- Oh, my! Are you crying again, you stupid boy? Of course, you have nothing better to do in your life! Just like your idiot mother. I wonder why my lord chose her as the first queen.
- They still have not come back yet. I wonder if John and Lily will ever come back. They will both be 16 now, and belittle me for being only 14, but I do not care. I will become king soon. Stepmother loves me. I'm sure her advice is good. I'm sure-
- Y-your highness? Pardon me, but...
- Outside of Matthew's Balcony
- 12 year old Prince Matthew played in his courtyard with his peasant friend, Samuel, all the time. The boys were very close. One day, as they were playing, a knight came up to them, looking scared and panicked. The news given to Matthew nearly scared him to death. If he had died though, maybe he would see his mother one last time...
- Outside of Matthew's Balcony
- Matthew stared at his pale, dead mother and burst into tears. No matter what people said, Matthew would not feel better. There was only one person, however, whose goal in life was to make Matthew's life worst: Queen Margaret. She would always disencourage Matthew's father, King James, from letting Samuel into the courtyard, but Queen Rebecca would always stop Margaret from being stupid to her son. Now, there was no one to knock some sense into James; Queen Rebecca was dead, Matthew's older brother, Prince Jonathan, had gone to study abroad with Princess Liliana, their step-sister and the love of John's life, even though she was Queen Margaret's daughter. These three people were not present to protect Matthew.
- Inside of Samuel's Cottage
- She has got a point! What part of this does not click up here?! *taps head*
- Matthew! It is good to see you, but let us get to the point. You paired up with MY MOTHER OF ALL PEOPLE and let her poison your mind! Did you not hate her?
- Oh no. OH NO. I know this poison! Matthew has been cursed by Queen Margaret. That is why Queen Rebecca died so suddenly and King James followed her path! QUEEN MARGARET IS A WITCH!!
- Upon the night of his 14th birthday, Prince Matthew retired to his room to rest after a long ball in his honor. He walked out to his balcony and looked down at the pure snow, the bits of crystal on the ground and sighed sadly. Was he ever going to get his brother and sister back? His thoughts were interrupted by a soft, sweet voice.
- Inside of Samuel's Cottage
- This is not you, Matthew! Just trust me-
- MATTHEW! What has surrounded you? Why are your eyes red?!
- It was Lora, Samuel's sister. She was a year younger than Matthew and Samuel, and she always ran away to her room whenever she came to visit because she was embarrassed that her clothes were horrible. She was in love with Matthew, and he was in love with her, but neither noticed each other blushing.
- ...m-my brother is requesting y-your presence since your brother and sister are back and would like you to hear their message.
- OH! Oh, of course! Lead the way, Lora!
- Matthew rushed into the cottage and hugged his brother and sister. He had missed them. Suddenly, they tore themselves from his tight hug and yelled at him. He stared at their faces, shocked as to why they had this sudden change in behavior. Then he realized that they were talking about Queen Margaret. He had teamed up with her, but she stood by his side after King James died, and he trusted her! He wasn't exactly sure why he trusted her-NOPE! She was trustworthy, and that was all he needed to know.
- NO! THAT CANNOT BE TRUE!
- Matthew felt a tsunami of anger washing his brain of anything else. He was about to tell them to not tell him what to do. Suddenly, he felt calm. He smiled for absolutely no reason, and collapsed. He was in a dark place with nothing but black everywhere. He looked up and saw what he saw through his eyes normally, except he was not the one making himself laugh evilly. He was horrified. He was trapped in this dark place and his body was hurting his friends! He saw Lora and Samuel panicking. He saw his brother and sister getting slapped across the face, even though he was not controlling himself. Matthew curled into a ball and cried. Then, he strangely passed out...
- FOOLS! HE IS MINE NOW! HIS SOUL IS ASLEEP AND TUCKED AWAY WHERE YOU SHALL NEVER FIND IT! SOFA ASOO LEEPA GADOO!
