Humpty Dumpty was murdered by the King rather than falling accidentally. According to the modern twist on the tale, Humpty Dumpty was a famous public speaker advocating against segregation in Egg-Tropolice when the King, who disagreed with Humpty's views, had one of his men push Humpty off the wall to his death. This version was uncovered by Mary and her little lamp, who witnessed the incident, leading to riots in the streets between eggs and the King's men.
