TNGF
SELECTED
King Eadred
primary
A young man in his early twenties, slender yet with a regal bearing that belies his youth. His fair hair is neatly trimmed, and his pale blue eyes reflect both determination and the weight of his new responsibilities. His face is clean-shaven, as befits a newly crowned king, and his posture is straight, though there is a slight tension in his shoulders.
Archbishop Oda
primary
A tall, gaunt man in his late fifties with a deeply lined face and piercing blue eyes that convey both wisdom and sternness. His thin lips are set in a firm line, and his silver hair is neatly tonsured in the clerical fashion. His hands are long-fingered and slightly gnarled from years of holding a quill.
Ealdorman Aethelstan
secondary
A tall, broad-shouldered man in his late forties with a weathered face, deep-set blue eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard streaked with grey. His hands are calloused from years of wielding a sword, yet his posture exudes noble bearing.
Deacon
secondary
A young deacon in his early twenties, with a slender build and a clean-shaven face. His light brown hair is neatly trimmed, and his pale skin suggests a life spent mostly indoors in study and prayer. His hands are delicate, accustomed to handling sacred texts and vessels rather than manual labor.
Guard Captain
background
A seasoned warrior in his late 30s, with a muscular build and a weathered face marked by old battle scars. His piercing blue eyes constantly scan the surroundings, and his short, dark brown beard is neatly trimmed. His hands are calloused from years of wielding weapons.
Dialog
Archbishop Oda
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti, I anoint thee, Eadred, as king of this realm. May the Lord grant thee wisdom as He did Solomon.
King Eadred
I accept this burden with a humble heart, trusting in God's guidance and the counsel of my lords.
Ealdorman Aethelstan
The crown weighs heavy, my lord, but the realm stands with thee as oak stands with the earth.
Archbishop Oda
Remember, my son, that a king's strength lies not in his sword alone, but in his justice and his faith.
King Eadred
I shall strive to be both shield and shepherd to my people, as my forebears were before me.
