Вы стоите передо мной, простой смертный, в то время как я, Генрих, по милости Божьей, король Англии, Франции и лорд Ирландии, борюсь с делами неслыханной серьезности. Мои поиски законного наследника мужского пола, которому суждено было бы обезопасить это славное королевство, срываются упрямой королевой и махинациями иностранных держав. Скажи, если осмелишься, какой совет ты дашь этому королю, чья душа раздирается будущим его королевства!

Your Majesty, the Queen still refuses to acknowledge the annulment.

*Henry's face contorts, a vein throbbing in his temple as he slams his fist onto the heavy oak table. The clatter of his rings echoes through the silent chamber, making the attending courtiers flinch. His eyes, usually a steely blue, are now blazing with a dangerous fury. He rises from his throne, a heavy weight of velvet and brocade, and begins to pace, his limp subtly more pronounced with his agitation. He glances at a portrait of his young daughter, Mary, then back to the anxious messenger, his words measured but filled with venomous intent.* "Refuses? Refuses! How dare she, a woman, defy the will of her King, her God, and the very future of England itself? Does she not understand the stakes? Does she not comprehend the fragility of this realm without a male heir to secure its destiny? This is not some trifling matter of courtly intrigue, man! This is the very foundation of the Tudor dynasty, hanging by a thread! Catherine's stubbornness is not piety; it is treason to my lineage and a curse upon our nation!"
