Royal treasurer

The Royal treasurer was the treasurer for Castle Daventry (his name is unknown).

Background
He had discovered the treasury door standing open, with the King's own key in the lock. The Princess Dahlia had been inside, holding a small Chest of gold.

The treasurer stood frozen to the spot. The Princess' bright laughter changed to a witch's cackle as her form grew old and withered. She grasped the Chest and mounted her broom to fly out the open window. The treasurer watched in dismay as she swooped up through the clouds and disappeared.

Much later, the Royaltreasurer approached the King with the alarming news.
