# Keeper of Forbidden Knowledge A short comic strip in four panels:
Panel 1. In a dark throne room, King Konstad sits surrounded by his guards and large statues. Kneeling before him is the High Wizard Albrus. High wizard Albrus: Fear not. All of the books which you have asked to be destroyed, I have taken care of them personally. King Konstad: Well done, Albrus!
Panel 2. Albrus rises and leaves the throne room, followed by his wizard assistant who was waiting outside.
Panel 3. As they walk away from the castle, getting outside, the assistant speaks with surprise and curiosity. Albrus’s Assistant: But you did not destroy those books. You merely gave them to the Witch of the North.
Panel 4. Further from the castle, on the bridge, under the day light, Albrus reveals his philosophy. High wizard Albrus: Konstad is my King, but kings come and go, and knowledge is my god... * Original \#microfiction: "Fear not," said the high wizard Albrus to King Konstad. "All of the books which you have asked to be destroyed, I have taken care of them personally." > The king beamed. "Well done, Albrus!" As they left the throne room, the wizard's assistant said, "But you did not destroy those books. You merely gave them to the Witch of the North." "Konstad is my King," said the wizard. "But kings come and go, and knowledge is my god...." * License: CC By-Sa, attribution to 🦋ShouldbeWriting🦋 ( @vanellopemint@mastodon.art ), posted on Oct 21, 2025, 03:21 PM.
