• King Henry VIII

The House of Tudor, Henry: Supreme head of the Church of England, beheader of His wives.
Excommunicated from the Catholic Church!
Dissolution!
Monastery reformation!
Valuable mead-money sapped by the pope. Money for places demanded by Rome.
Church of England!
Who are these girls? Bring me a son! Suitable heir. Fruit of my loins, healthy and strong. Weaklings, no good!
Protest!
Severed from the Catholic Church.
It's not me, it is you, barren womb.
It's not me, it is you, equals doom!
Birth burdens your rule.
Syphilitic, ulcerated, at death's door, wracked with illness, festering greed, always more!
Never learned that women aren't just baby-makers, queuing up for execution.
