In Visigoth
Hispania, the most common method of succession was assassination. King Basis
reigned Hispania, and he lived in his castle with his son, Tales. Basis was a
good king who cared for the citizens of Hispania and had a form of government
that everyone accepted. However, his son Tales was a cruel person who only
cared about himself and wanted to become the king of Hispania. To accomplish
that, he would have to kill his father, so he devised a plan.
One day,
King Basis received a letter that read, “Your reign will end soon.” When the
king read the letter, he got scared thinking they wanted to kill him. After a
while, a strange-looking man came to the castle. That night, the king received
another letter saying, “It will be your last day.” The king got more scared and
decided to lock himself in his suite and sleep.
The next
morning, his son Tales appeared dead in his room. Nobody knew what was
happening and who killed Tales. That morning, the king received news from a
guard: “My work here is done and you’re safe.” The confused king asked the

King Basis
promised to find out who had killed his son Tales. But the mystery lasted forever.
No one could figure out who had killed Tales.

early. She investigated but found nothing.
That same
week, the new king died. The position of king went to the king’s next-youngest
brother. The mother was very surprised because that had never happened before,
and she continued to investigate but found nothing. That day, the king spent an
hour as king and then died. The control passed to the youngest brother. The
mother was very angry and didn’t know what was happening. He was king for three
years.
The mother
discovered, after investigating, that her child who was the current king had
killed all his brothers so that he could be king. One day, she was walking and
found a bottle of poison between the flowers. The youngest son had killed all
of his brothers with the poison in order to be king. That day, he was imprisoned and…
