Queen Isabella

The fall of the Duke

Once upon a time there was a powerful Duke who ruled a medieval kingdom. He was a man of insatiable greed and immoral desires. Under his rule he had made many subjects suffer and often abused his power. One of his most notorious rights was the so-called "Natura Noctis", which gave him the right to share the bed of any newly married woman on the first night of her marriage.

The people of the kingdom lived in fear of their Duke and his desires. No woman was safe from his advances, and many husbands were forced to hide their wives to protect them from the Duke. But despite their efforts, the Duke was still able to track down many women and exercise his cruel right.

One day, a young woman named Isabella decided that she and her fellow citizens should no longer live under the Duke's tyranny. She began to join forces with other subjects to find a way to overthrow their Duke.

Isabella and her supporters began to hold secret meetings to discuss their plans and gather weapons. They also forged alliances with other neighbouring kingdoms who were also suffering under the Duke's rule.

After months of preparations, the time finally came. Isabella and her followers marched on the Duke's castle, ready to overthrow him. They fought bravely against the Duke's guards, and after a long and bloody battle, they managed to defeat and capture the Duke.

Isabella and her followers triumphed and the kingdom was ruled by a new, just ruler. The "Natura Noctis" was abolished and the subjects could finally live in peace without fear of the tyranny of their former Duke.

From that day on, Isabella was revered by the subjects as a heroine who had given them freedom. She was crowned queen and ruled with wisdom and justice. She worked hard to heal the wounds of the past and rebuild the kingdom. She introduced reforms that improved the lives of her subjects by promoting education and prosperity.

Under Isabella's leadership, the kingdom flourished and it became a place of peace and prosperity. People lived in harmony with each other and the economy prospered. Isabella was loved and revered by her subjects and her reign went down in history as one of the best.

But Isabella's happiness did not last. One day she suddenly fell ill and despite all the efforts of the doctors, she could not be saved. Her death hit the kingdom hard and the subjects mourned the loss of their beloved queen.

But Isabella's legacy lived on. Her children and grandchildren continued to rule the kingdom with wisdom and justice, and her deeds and ideas inspired generations of rulers after her. To this day, a monument in the city commemorates Isabella and her exploits, and her name is always honoured as the heroine who freed the kingdom from the Duke's tyranny and led it into a golden age.
