| Marguerite d'Anjou |
Ladies and Gentlemen of England, times are changing and this year would be unforgettable. Good bye dear King Henry VI and his French born Queen Margaret of Anjou. Farewell Prince of Wales, Edward of Westminster, heir of the last King and Queen of England. And also adieu to the House of Lancaster which was on the throne since 1399!
Welcome to Edward, last Earl of March, then Duke of York by his poor father's death on the Battle of Wakefield, three months ago. He has been crowned King of England hastily but will he stay king? The battle of Towton will be decisive, but could he reign well at his age? He is ninetheen. Some rumours say he's good-looking, then if you cannot be his wife and Queen of England, being his mistress!
But he won't be just king by title, he will be king of the english people, what do they think of him? This is time to let them say their own thought.
John ; 25. Yorkist Soldier.
I
am a Yorkist soldier. My father and my uncle fought with Richard
Neville, Earl of Warwick. I have a cousin who fought with the
brother of King Edward IV of England, Edmund, Earl of Rutland and who
died during the battle with the king's father, Richard Duke of York.
Sad time ; Earl of Rutland, Duke of York and Richard Neville,
Earl of Salisbury, Warwick's father, had their heads cut off and
put on spikes on the York wall to show everyone what could happen if you become
a traitor. But now Edward IV is on the throne and he's the true heir
of the crown of England. I will give my own life for him. God Save
the King!
Nice to know it dear John, I hope you faith will be considered as it have to. And I hope too you will stay alive too see (perhaps) the official coronation of King Edward IV. God save you.
Gregory ; 41. Loyal man from the House of Lancaster.
I am aghast! How could a boy be King of England?! Then he is a traitor, he has to finish as his brother and father; on a spike! King Henry VI has to come back to the throne and no one could claim as Richard last Duke of York the true heir of the crown! He will come back on his seat! Queen Margaret and him will fight for it. Richard II was a bad king, King Henry IV took the throne and save our England. Edward is Duke of York not King of England. He is an impostor.
A speech which could have repercussion on you Gregory. I hope you know some hiding-place... Perhaps your head will stay where she is. But why are you so contrarian? You do not like your life?
Joan ; 22; Prostitute.
I've heard there's a new King of England by the speechs of my clients. Some of them were angry, some others truly well. I am not a Lancastrian or Yorkist woman. You know what I am, don't you? I am a slut. Yes, I work in the street and actually I really don't care of what happen with this f*cking golden crown. If there is no repercussion in my business, it's good. Then could you go out, I've a client in two minutes...
Then she closed the door, but I am pretty sure your work wouldn't have deals with this new king, perhaps you could meet him...
