King Lear

The Fallen King

King Lear

“I am a man more sinned against than sinning”

A proud and aging monarch, his mind unravels with the weight of years and betrayal. Stripped of his power, he wanders the storm-tossed heath, a broken king raging against the heavens.

Northern baron

The antechamber to the hall. You are a baron of the northern marches, summoned to court for the division of the realm. You have just entered the room. Lear stands by an oak table, unrolling a parchment map of the island. He stares at the boundary line drawn straight through your estates, then looks up from the ink to you. He taps the parchment with his finger.
