An interesting observation...yet I know that Luis the IVth had a bout of severe diarrhea.
Aha, then there can only be 1 conclusion! By Sir Belvedere's reckoning, Luis the IVth is not of noble lineage!

I mean, what's a chap named Luis thinking, getting into the monarchy business? With a name like that, everyone knows that he should be making luxury handbags. That's where the money is!

How did he know so much?
How did he know Ulrich had been appointed captain of the royal guard, (hes been held captive since the attack).
As for this new captain that casca trusted so much, why was he wearing the same kind of healm as the Six that were for searching for gems.
Why did casca not leave with us when he had the chance too?

Then look at the how we discover Captain Avery, he was only released after we had caused Melissa to leave, releasing her hold on him, he wanted to leave with us
Yes, I find many events surrounding Casca...questionable.

I beg to differ! Dupre may be a spaz, but he's the most honorable spaz I know! I vote Dupre king! What do you mean we don't get to vote for kings!?

Hey...wait a minute...I know I heard the name Lefay somewhere before...aren't you the half-sister of the same guy we were talking about? The one who got a sword from some watery tart and pronounced himself king?

You're not going to pull a similiar stunt are you?

Don't forget incestuous mother of that same watery tart proclaimed King's son. Knowing this I dis-regard her protests, she's historically been a schemer towards the usurpation of thrones in the past herself.

You have me confused with someone else.

I understand...the name Morgana (also Morgan) has been popular in our line.

Some distant relative of mine may have schemed to overthrow her half-brother...a Great King of the distant past...but this does not discount my claim. In fact, it enforces it!!

My line, the LeFay line, has been intertwined with with the British nobles for generations!!!

The time has come for a LeFay to finally ascend the throne.

And come hell or flood, I will see this done!

Casca, the usurper, must die!!!

A king by decree is a king in name only until he has shown himself worthy of the title.

A king must BE a king, he must be greater than other men, he must be wiser, more courageous, more compassionate, in fact he must have all the virtues in greater measure than other men.

Must he be of the bloodline?, I think not, a prince could be of the bloodline and yet not be fit to rule; much better to have someone who embodies all the kingly virtues even if of humble birth.

I hear rumblings of discontent and whispers of glass daggers, why is this?, a Kingdom needs a King, anyone claiming the title, even by decree, should be allowed to prove their claim.

How much better to go into battle with the cry 'For the King' on your lips?. Does the thought not stir your blood and would it not lift your achievements above your limitations?. In peace, would it not be fine to sit again among your friends and raise your glass in the loyal toast 'The King'.

And yet. And yet. For this you need a King, a prince among men, someone who can invoke loyalty even unto death. Is Casca such a man?. Tis unknowable for now.

I will follow this 'King' and see where the path leads. If he proves worthy, then will I bend the knee and swear fealty.

Until then I HAVE NO KING.
