The biggest and the oldest oak tree in the southern part of the nation has witnessed many great warriors's final journey to heaven.
Today being the last rituals of the old king and commander in chief the tree shall again witness the peaceful last journey of a great leader.
It had rained yesterday so the land surrounding the sacred oak tree was still damp but that didn't stop the locals from paying the final visit to their beloved leader, once a cheered young prince but now an old fragile 96years old dead king.
Throughout his lifetime he never declared anyone to be the next king, his nephews are the only ones left to claim the ancestral properties and positions but the people and government will always accept them as their prince and not the king so technically its the funeral of the last Helocian king.
Jareld Incuty was not only the personal secretary to the late king but also as the tradition demands, he is also the incharge of king's last rituals.
The brass platform had not been used since the passing away of Queen 40 years ago. Leaves from the sacred tree were spread all over the platform by Jerald, his one eye is covered with the king's silk made handkerchief and he is to remain barefooted till the last rituals take place.
The old king shall rest upon the brass platform for two afternoons and people from all over the nation would come and pay their leader the last tribute.
Two huge pots are placed near the king's feet, one to be filled by gold coin while the other with green grass. .....
