The "Puppet Kingdom" puppet theater operated for a long time. Audiences laughed and enjoyed the puppet shows, but over time, the theater fell into disuse.
Some of the puppets simply walked around the theater at night, making sounds. Justin was talking to the Knight. They were discussing something, and their conversations led to memories of the theater.
One such night, a man came to the theater. Most likely, another security guard. The puppets remained quiet until the REAL night began, and the man managed to clear at least half of the theater and then went to his room (?).

The knight obeyed, and Justin led the guard onto the stage. The puppets peered out from rooms and shadows, watching the man who had arrived. Justin assigned them the role of king/queen, because, as the jester said, "We haven't had a ruler in our little kingdom for a long time! "
