The troop had just begun to adjust to their new leader — the freshly crowned king — when something unexpected happened. The excitement of his rise turned to confusion and concern as the powerful figure suddenly disappeared from sight or began acting strangely.
At first, he ruled with confidence. He marked his place, gathered followers, and kept rivals in check. But in a sudden twist, he started showing signs of stress — aggression turned to silence, and his posture shifted from dominant to defensive.
Some say he may have been challenged too soon, facing a brutal fight that left him injured. Others believe the pressure of leadership — the constant tension, threats, and responsibility — wore him down faster than expected.
There are even whispers that he was pushed out, betrayed by those closest to him, or lured into a trap by a rival still hungry for the throne.
