At night time. All the candles were lit up. The round table in the middle with the biggest candle of all and each individual chair around that table are all facing the big candle. There was a sound of horses approaching. The ground was shaking and all candle lights were shaking, except for the ones on the walls. Which are reserved for their greatest warriors of that time.

Everyone has taken their seat at the table. They all waited for the arrival of the king. As soon as he approached, they stood up and waited for him to set down. It was unexpected of him to go and turn off the candle lights on the walls. He finished and came back. The moment that they all have been waiting for. They were shocked that he was talking about the light traveling from a point to another. It was not making sense. When he just finished briefing. He said, it is probably irrelevant to most or all of you. But, what I wanted to talk about is the decision that we need to take regarding our defenses. We need to improve them and this needs to happen in a speed of light. A necessary action that needs to be taken quickly. Soon, they realized that he was just trying to grab their attention before the start.

À noite. Todas as velas estavam acesas. A mesa redonda no centro tinha a maior vela de todas, e cada cadeira ao redor da mesa estava voltada para ela. Ouviu-se o som de cavalos se aproximando. O chão tremia e todas as velas oscilavam, exceto as das paredes, reservadas para os maiores guerreiros da época.

Todos se sentaram à mesa. Aguardavam a chegada do rei. Assim que ele se aproximou, levantaram-se e esperaram que ele se sentasse. Para surpresa de todos, ele foi apagar as velas das paredes. Ele terminou e voltou. O momento que todos esperavam. Ficaram chocados ao ouvi-lo falar sobre a luz viajando de um ponto a outro. Não fazia sentido. Ao terminar o discurso, ele disse: "Isso provavelmente é irrelevante para a maioria de vocês, ou para todos vocês. Mas o que eu queria discutir é a decisão que precisamos tomar em relação às nossas defesas. Precisamos aprimorá-las, e isso precisa acontecer na velocidade da luz. Uma ação necessária que precisa ser tomada rapidamente." Logo perceberam que ele estava apenas tentando chamar a atenção deles antes do início.
