King Zero

Once upon a time there was a King. King Zero. [if you are confused with King Nero, you can find his info here]

He has a very big kingdom with truthful people lived their lives in the best possible way. There was everything that a man need to live in the kingdom. Peace, comfort, gold, work, and everything amusing and everything endearing. It was the place to be. People from various kingdoms flew with great interest and were quickly consumed by the wholeheartedness of the truthful people of this kingdom.

The king was omnipotent, omnipresent! There was a no fiasco, there was no war, there was no unsettled thoughts. The kingdom was ruled with utmost efficiency by the numerous ministers elected by the king, though they were his favorites, they worked to the best of the interests of the people of the Kingdom.

The King has a beautiful family. The queen, The Prince and a Princess. Closely followed by his brother and his family. The brother King Zero++ was the think tank and war head for whatever life the people were living. There was nothing the king could not conquer.

Years passed by. The king become more and more powerful, yet he wasn’t proud. He was the same Zero and his brother the same Zero++. But there is the Jr. Zero. He is a worthless successor any father would dread of. He has nothing to feel original. Whatever he did, it was all because of the Great Zero. Hmmm… He has to prove a point. What he did?

He started his own Kingdom.

And as he is the useless, powerless and worthless King a kingdom probably can have, he has no idea how to run it. With no money, no gold and worst of all no people! He pleaded his father for guidence. And the Great King obiliged. He got a plan outta box.

He sent 10000 of his truthful people to the new kingdom. They will still be the people of the Great King Zeros kingdom, but are not allowed inside the fortress and have to confine to the newly established kingdom. Thus forcing them to accept themselves as the people for the new king. 

He started lending out money to his Son, who started to build his kingdom. Various buildings, landscapes, bridges and all.  The people in the new kingdom became happier and richer by day as they have money now without any work. And the new kingdom is growing fast and rich with the funds from the old kingdom. Things started to change.

Slowly the truthful people of the old kingdom were workless as the work is no more providing them neither with food nor with money. All the money is being used up by the new kingdom. There were very few in the old place who really have work. The others were lagging their lives uncertain of what to do.  The King was too busy spending money on his son’s worthlessness. He didn’t listen the outcry.

Time is running out for the people. They started to flee out of the fortress to other fortress where they can find food and work. They were feeling pity for the kingdom they left and happy for their lives. And disaster struck. There is a war that started targetting the old fortress. No money to defend it. The king accepted defeat without fighting. The kingdom crumbled. The new kingdom was merrier as ever.

The new king to the kingdom is happy for the beautiful citadel. He was happy for the few hardworking people left behind. But severly unhappy with the people who couldn’t fetch him gold from the mines. He gave them ultimatum.

Go out of the fortress. Beg, borrow or steal. Find a work. No work. No access to the fortress. Thus left the 10000 truthful people in search of the work that could help them feed themselves and their families, on the mercy of the new king. They have no way to go, but fight to live. They are free to go out of the kingdom to any other kingdom, but were never accepted back once gone. The new kingdom is prospering as usual.

King Zero was jailed and was happy for his son and the fortune in the new Kingdom. He wasn’t sorry for the lives that are threatened. He started playing the guitar.

The kingdom burned. Only the people are left, waiting for…..
