Llywelyn turned the crown in his hands. "A king by the Grace of Corman", he said bitterly. "And if any Cormish king ever decides I'm not behaving in the way I was supposed to - then what?"

Aidan shrugged. "He'll try to express his displeasure. And then he'll learn something that I found out years ago."

"What's that?" Llywelyn said, irritably.

"That it's pretty damn impossible to make you behave in any way you don't want to behave."

"You make it sound easy," Llywelyn murmured.

Aidan sighed. "I won't deny it won't be easy. Corman put you on the throne because they think you'll be easy to control, and they will try to control you. But you're not alone. You've got allies - the best cadfridoc a king could wish for -"

"And the best councillor a king could wish for," Llywelyn said with a slight smile.

Aidan's face remained dark. "There's only one bit of advice this one councillor is ever going to give you. I may alter it from time to time to fit the circumstances, but the message will always be the same.

Keep that throne."


The Rhyddion Chronicles, last chapter

Pencil, parchment, photoshop. (Is it hypocritical to start a sketch at a watercolour workshop and then colour it digitally? ;P)

Keep that throne. Well, that's certainly putting it bluntly. I think I will like this book/s.

This scene has dropped out of it, as the circumstances on Llelo becoming king/prince will be different, but the overall situation will stay :)

Wenn ich so durch deine Gallerie streune erkenne ich, dass ich Aidan wirklich am meisten mag. Ich denke wenn ich es bei all der Arbeit schaffen sollte an deinem Wettbewerb teilzunehmen, dann einfach weil ich mich inzwischen wirklich genötigt fühle ihn mal zu zeichnen.
Ich hoffe ich tue ihm damit nichts schlimmes an. Hatte ja schon genug zu leiden.

Amazing details - the clothing and hands and the window. You always manage to convey a perfect atmosphere.
