The King's word

The King is an animated statue […]

"[…] My lover […] bargained […] in return for his city […]

"I no longer love him. […] But […] I am his heart's desire. […]

"The diamond that is my heart shattered […] a shard was stolen […] Bring it to me, and you shall have your player. […]

Description summary:
The king is a living statue. In the days of the First City he was close to death, and his lover bargained with the Bazaar for their lives in exchange for the city.

The Masters made him a statue and as a heart put in a huge diamond from the Mountain of Light to the South. The diamond shattered long ago, and a shard was stolen by someone and taken to Spite in London.

The King will only allow the Manager to play the Marvellous if you return the shard to him. But he also begs you not to let the Manager win.
