this is again part of the plot of King Bendow.

Bursting from the unlocked throne room doors with a sudden hit,
Bendow casts a flame across, causing the nearby candles to be lit,
Touching his sword tip to the brick, “My friends, family, others who squat.”
He calls with a croak in his voice almost sick, “I shall offer all I have got.”
Bendow wakes those asleep, “To who comes with me to find my child?”
He asks, “To go East and ally with the Absarth Exiled?”
He adds, “Find my Webrera and bring her back safe and sound.”
Bendow shakes a little, “To this promise I am eternally bound.”
Cabrera looks up to him, then her eyes look across the crowd,
“I will assist you my lord.” Noit bows, making his lord proud,
Alina and Hue kneel down next to Noit, bowing their heads,
Bendow smiles, pulling his cheeks until the skin shreds,
Cabrera walks near the others and also bows to tell her intent,
“what are you doing?” Bendow asks, not wanting to give consent,
“I want to find her father.” Cabrera takes a breath,
As Bendow thinks for a moment, hoping this will not bring her death,
“Very well.” He slides his sword along the brick before lifting it high,
Placing it between his exposed ribs, knowing he will soon die,
Not wanting his daughter to see this happen again so soon,
For the heartache of losing her father before may not be twice immune.
