Setting

Westminster Abbey, London, United Kingdom. The grand interior of the abbey is adorned with early Norman and remaining Anglo-Saxon architectural elements. The nave is filled with a mix of Norman knights in chainmail and Saxon thegns in simpler attire, standing in separate groups. The high altar is the center of the ceremony, draped in rich fabrics and lit by countless candles.

TNGF
SELECTED
William the Conqueror
primary
A powerfully built man in his late 30s, standing taller than most present. His face is weathered from years of campaigning, with a strong jawline and piercing gray-blue eyes that command attention. His dark brown hair is cropped short in the Norman style, and he sports a neatly trimmed beard. His posture exudes authority, with broad shoulders and a stance that suggests both warrior and ruler.
Norman knight
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered Norman noble with a strong jawline and piercing blue eyes. His face bears a few scars from battles, a testament to his warrior status.
Saxon thegn
secondary
A broad-shouldered man with a thick, unkempt beard streaked with gray, his face marked by a recent battle scar. His piercing blue eyes burn with quiet fury.
Archbishop of Canterbury
background
An elderly man with a thin, slightly stooped frame, his face lined with age and the weight of his office. His white hair is neatly tonsured in the ecclesiastical style, and his pale blue eyes reflect a mix of solemn duty and quiet apprehension.
