Amalikiah becomes King of the Lamanites

After Amalikiah gains control of the Lamanite armies he comes back to the Lamanite King and Amalikiah’s servants kill the king.  The kings servants flee. Amalikiah tells everyone the Kings own servants killed him. The queen is sad. Amalikiah uses flattery and convinces the queen he loves her, and marries her. He becomes King of the Lamanites. He now makes the Lamanite armies fight the Nephites.  Moroni has fortified the cities. Amalikiah does not care how many lamanites are killed trying. One night after fighting Amalikiah and his army go to sleep. Teancum (one of Moroni’s leaders) sneaks into the Lamanite camp and kills Amalikiah with a javelin in his heart.  Finally this wicked man who has caused so much death and misery is dead.
