Golems kill people! How they burst out of the fog, how they swarm in! I tell you for sure! Most likely, it’s all the fault of that upstart—Commander Samuel Vimes. He enlisted all sorts of… well, minorities in the City Watch. And those gnomes—honestly, you can’t give them an axe! One of these days, and the whole of Ankh-Morpork will be strewn with severed legs… And by the way, patrician. Most likely, the same Sir Samuel also poisoned him. The poor fellow barely survived. But he’s not himself anymore… Not himself… We should look for a new ruler. And execute Vimes! By the very first decree!
By the way, there’s a rumor that the City Watch has a real heir to the throne. But no— not that fool, Morcow! The real heir is corporal Snobby Snobbs, Count of Ankh! So what if he’s a proper little rat? Where have you ever seen normal kings?
