Synopsis:
The king builds a cozy love nest with no windows for himself and his mistress.

However, she is not loyal to the monarch and associates with the court's troubadour.

In fact, the two are using the king's new game room as a secret meeting place.

When the king learned of this, he summoned the stonemasons.

The masons use stone and mortar to quietly seal the only door to the vault.

The lovers suffocate to death and the movie ends.
