Mile End Meeting
Wat Tyler and rebel peasants negotiate with King Richard II's representatives outside London, demanding an end to serfdom and oppressive taxes.
Setting
Open field at Mile End, just outside London's city walls. The area is a mix of trampled grass and dirt paths, with scattered trees providing partial shade. The city walls loom in the background, their stone surfaces weathered and stained.

TNGF
SELECTED
Wat Tyler
primary
A rugged man in his late 30s with a wiry, muscular build from years of labor. His face is weathered and lined, with a prominent jaw and deep-set eyes that burn with intensity. His dark brown hair is unkempt, streaked with gray, and falls just past his shoulders. A thick beard covers the lower half of his face, and his hands are calloused and strong.
King Richard II
primary
A slender young man with fair, shoulder-length hair and delicate features. His pale complexion and high cheekbones give him an almost ethereal appearance. His blue eyes are sharp and calculating, though they betray a flicker of nervous energy.
Royal Herald
secondary
A tall, lean man in his late 30s with a clean-shaven face and sharp features. His posture is rigid, exuding an air of authority, and his piercing blue eyes scan the crowd with practiced efficiency. His hands are well-manicured, a sign of his privileged position.
Rebel Peasant
secondary
A wiry man in his late 30s with sun-weathered skin and calloused hands, his frame lean from years of hard labor. His dark hair is cropped short and streaked with premature gray, framing a face marked by deep lines around the eyes and mouth. His left ear bears an old scar from a farming accident.
Royal Guard
background
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late 30s with a weathered face and a closely cropped beard. His piercing blue eyes scan the crowd with military precision, and his muscular frame is evident even beneath his armor. A faint scar runs across his left cheekbone, a testament to past battles.
Dialog
Wat Tyler
We demand an end to the poll tax and the bonds of serfdom! No more shall we toil while the lords feast on our sweat!
King Richard II
Good people, we hear your grievances. The crown shall consider your requests with the wisdom granted by God and our royal council.
Royal Herald
By the decree of His Majesty, King Richard II, all loyal subjects shall lay down their arms and return to their homes, where justice shall be dispensed in due course.
Wat Tyler
Justice? We’ve had naught but empty words while our children starve! Show us deeds, not parchment!
King Richard II
We swear upon our crown, your suffering shall not go unanswered. But rebellion is not the path to redress.
Royal Herald
The king’s mercy is boundless, but his patience is not. Disperse now, lest you invite the wrath of the crown.
Wat Tyler
Mercy? We seek justice, not crumbs from the king’s table! The time for words is past!
