There was once an election for the new King.

  The Magician cried out there was a conspiracy to steal the throne from the Elder One, and argued for fairness.

  The Rogue came out of the shadows and debunked the conspiracy, arguing to vote for the Younger One, for moral causes.

  After a heavy campaign from both sides to elect their respectful Kings, the election was held.

  Turns out the Elder One was poisoned, vacating the empty seat to the Younger One.

  What the scrolls fail to mention was the Magician and Rogue were conspiring for the same result from the beginning.
