The ruler learns that he will be given divine punishment for his wicked deeds and will be killed by his own son.

Cast

gollark: When big companies try and be funny or ironic or whatever on social media, I always wonder if there's some actual human managing the account who thinks it's funny, or a team of marketing professionals trying to ruthlessly optimize humor value to appeal to social media users.
gollark: Well, to some extent, sure.
gollark: It has its own exciting problems too, though.
gollark: That... doesn't really improve the rest of it.
gollark: The compact message display mode?
