a spy was sent to spy on a neighboring enemy city (to see what it looked like and how it was defended ect.because they have never been able to see what it looked like before) on his way to the city he met a traveler (who guessing he was an enemy spy decided to lie to him) and the spy decided to make his job easier seeing he was from the enemy city decided to ask the traveler what the city looked like. and the traveler said it is a well defended city with high walls and a moat around it with 10,000 strong to keep it safe and how the king and queen had there own personal meat butcher and how the houses were made of the finest hewn stone and after they parted ways the spy knew he had lied how did he know.

im gonna guess that the traveller was wearing rags or whatnot and that the spy assumed that if the city was so good then the guy would be wearing better clothes

Does it have to do with the "Hewn Stone"? Because if I'm not mistaken, Hewn has to do with something chopped with an axe.

if you know a little about midevil times the slip up he made was the butcher a butcher was forced to live outside of villeges and citys because of the midevil rule the street is the dumpster so being a butch he would have thrown dead cows into the street causing disease and living next to the king wouldnt have worked out.

The traveler said the Queen and King had a Personal Butcher, if he is so personal how did the traveler know?

[Guest]

can you have a king and queen ruling together?

could it have something to do with the butcher?

Kings + Queens don't rule cities, they rule kingdoms, and live in castles.

Mayors "rule" cities.

May be he knew it from seeing the body language of the traveler

they are neighboring cities, but they share the same king and queen so he knew that the king and queen don't have their own personal butcher, that's how he knew the guy was lying

a well defended city with high walls and a moat around it doesn't need 10.000 strong to keep it save?
