Source details and larger version.

Some rather surprising crowned heads are collected in my king gallery.

On December 24th 1165 William I, “The Lion”, was crowned at Scone.

William was red-haired and energetic. Early in his reign he attempted to recover land in Northumberland which had been given to King David in 1149 by King Stephen of England but which had been ceded by his brother Malcolm. The stories of his butchery of the local population were chronicled in detail by later (English) historians. However, he was ultimately unsuccessful as he was surprised by an attack by the English army while besieging Alnwick castle. In the mist, he mistook a party of English knights for his own. He is said to have fought fearlessly but his horse was speared and he was captured. He spent five months as a prisoner of Henry II while the English army plundered the south of Scotland as far as Edinburgh.

William was only released under the Treaty of Falaise. Under this, William was forced to swear allegiance to King Henry II of England and English garrisons remained in the castles which had been captured. This lasted until after Henry’s death in 1189. At that stage he was able to negotiate out of the oath by providing money to King Richard (the Lionheart) who needed finance to go on a crusade to the Holy Land. In 1178 William founded the Abbey of Arbroath which was dedicated to Thomas à Becket who had been murdered by Henry II in 1170. The Abbey was later to be place where the famous Declaration of Arbroath was signed in 1320 by the Scottish nobles in the time of Robert the Bruce.

William failed to assert his authority over the rebellious south-west of Scotland. This was not helped by the fact that he had to first ask permission of his “liege-lord” Henry to be allowed to deal with the matter. William captured one of the ring-leaders but had to send him to Henry to be dealt with. Henry demand an oath of loyalty - and promptly returned the outlaw to Galloway where he immediately attacked William’s garrison.

William is known to have been planning another invasion of England to retake Northumberland early in the 13th century after King John came to the throne of England and there were a number of skirmishes along the border. But he eventually negotiated a treaty instead - he is said to have had a ���divine warning” of the consequences of invasion.

In 1186 William married Ermengarde de Beaumont who at last bore him a son in 1198 (later King Alexander II) when William was aged 53. He also had three daughters (all of whom married English nobles as part of the peace-making process with King John of England).

William died in Stirling in 1214 and lies buried in Arbroath Abbey. His son, Alexander II, succeeded him as king, reigning from 1214 to 1249.

Eric pulled back with a dazed look in his eyes and a smile on his face. "That was better than I could have even imagined." He says a bit breathlessly before nodding. "I agree. I want to take our time. As much as I enjoy sex like any other man, it is not as important to me as forming a bond first. I'm demisexual. And while I admit I feel physical attractiin toward you, I am not ready either." He says pecking him on the lips before pulling away with a caress of his cheek, his hand dropping to take the others and lacing their fingers together. "What does the ideal relationship look like to you? I admit I havent been in a serious relationship in centuries, since Giovanni's mother." He admits.

Therapy 101!!!

King was nervous to meet his new client, especially after reading the strangers case and records given to him by another therapist. He mainly catered to humans, so this was his first experience with a supernatural being in his career. “Hello, my name is Dr. Chang. Please sit and make yourself comfortable.” He says politely with a warm smile. “Would you like some tea or coffee before we begin?”
