The line was scratched into the stone floor. Too straight to be accidental, too perfect a line directly between the throne and the door to be anything but a symbol. A symbol of how the Ruler of the land was connected to their people. That they were one and the same, that one could not exist without the other.
Plus those who sat in the throne were told of how it was formed, by the dragging of the then Royal Executioner's axe up to the throne and then used on the King, the last time said ruler forgot the connection.
