Esther was chosen to be the new queen, but she didn't want to be. Esther was related to a man named Mortici who was hated by Hammon. Two men from the village tried killing the King, but Esther told him to move out of the way before the piano fell on him. This only made the king like her more. Hammon found out that one of the kings guards was mortici, so he decided to tell the king that mortici was the one who tried to kill him. Then he told the king to kill mortici and his whole family. Esther tried to tell the king to not have them killed, because her and Mortici were related. Yet, Esther kept backing out and re-inviting them over for dinner. Finally she told the king that Hammon lied, and to not kill her family and he agreed.
