The Usurper

Go To

Once upon a time, not so very long ago, there was a boy born in the nation of Addeh Sikkim, in the royal palace, who wanted nothing more than to lead his people into a new world of prosperity and hope. He was suited to the task: clever and able and well-favoured. I locked him in a steel box and burned him alive. I used his ash to dye my mourning cloth, and I took his kingdom as my own. I needed it, you see, to understand divinity.
Shem Shem Tsien, Angelmaker

Ange: You're fourth in line to the throne.
Princess: With your help, couldn't I be first?
Princess Principal, "Dancy Conspiracy"

"I would rather feed my sons to the dragons, than have them carry shields and cups for your drunken, usurper cunt of a king."
Daemon Targaryen, House of the Dragon

You are no more the Hand than Aegon is king. Fucking traitor!"
Rhaenyra Targaryen, House of the Dragon

I can't believe Tutankoopa was the master here. This kingdom was originally built by Nomadimice, many generations ago. I'll tell you, Tutankoopa didn't look much like a Nomadimouse.
Goombario, Paper Mario 64
