Royalty at its Finest at Windsor Castle!

Our tour bus arrived in the regal town of Windsor and parked near the train station before we stumbled out into the winter chill.  Located thirty miles west of London, Windsor Castle overlooks the fertile Berkshire landscape of England and its battlements can be seen from miles around.  One of three magnificent residences of London’s royal family, Windsor Castle, has been inhabited by the rulers…

Ok so been researching some animals when I came across the Titanoboa and I went "Desmond as this would be very funny hehe" because imagine seeing that! A normal snake is pretty anxiety inducing enough, a giant one is a nightmare come true XD

If you wanna know just how long the titanoboa was supposed to be, here you go:

You know what would be funny?

If Desmond was ‘hibernating’ for so long his white scales actually looked like they were stone or mud thanks to all the dirt around him because he was sleeping in…

A very prominent location.

.

Altaïr knew that something strange was going on because he swear some parts of this underground ‘building’ were moving.

He wasn’t going to say it to Malik and Kadar though because he knew that they wouldn’t believe him. Well, Malik wouldn’t believe him but Kadar would definitely be more paranoid, fearing that perhaps they were being played with by a djinn or some other rot.

Then they reached the main chamber where Robert de Sablé appeared and Altaïr confronted him.

He was thrown across the room.

And into a wall…

That started to move against his back.

And all he could do was stare at the walls all started to move.

And golden eyes stared at them from where the supposed treasure was meant to be.

.

Ezio knew something was wrong the moment he stepped into the supposed resting place of God himself.

At least, that was what Rodrigo Borgia believed.

The walls…

They feel like they were moving…

But Ezio couldn’t be entirely sure that it wasn’t just his imaginations getting the best of him. So he continued to walk forward, wary of what lies at the end of this corridor.

Only to freeze when he reached an open room.

Where the head of a giant snake turn to stare at him.

Rodrigo Borgia was wrong.

God did not sleep here.

It was the serpent…

The serpent who had tempted Eve with the forbidden fruit.

.

…

Okay. So the one for Ratonhnhaké:ton is a problem. If we add Edward here, that would be easy because the Observatory is right there. Hell, he could even be an ‘experiment’ that Aita kept hidden.

Or, if you want to go down the route of Desmond being reborn or having the past life of Aita and Juno’s child, their human experiments were all to find a cure to their son who has been turned into a large snake OR all studies on how to keep their son alive during the Solar Flare.

Unfortunately, Ratonhnhaké:ton would be the odd man out of Desmond’s ancestors as he doesn’t enter any Isu facilities that we know of. Of course, we can just make Desmond sleep in the forest near his village or, more dramatically, inside the Grand Temple that he managed to escape from just in time to save Ratonhnhaké:ton from Charles Lee? Those could work?

(Sidebar: Desmond being a giant snake could also make this a “Desmond is Midgarsormen, one of Loki’s children” idea)

Here is my 2023 book list challenge. How many have you read? :)

[scotianostra]

January 1st 1766 saw the death of James Francis Edward Stuart, in Rome.

Born after nine previous children died either at birth or shortly after and a tenth who died at age four, a rumour, likely started by Protestant partisans, was almost immediately spread that a living child had been smuggled into the birthing chamber in a warming pan after the royal child had been born dead. At birth he was created 1st Duke of Rothesay, styled as Earl of Chester and Prince James of Wales. He was also created 1st Duke of Cornwall.

Fearing another Roman Catholic monarch, a Protestant group invited James II’s Protestant daughter by his first marriage, Mary, to take the throne, supplanting both her father and half-brother. Her acceptance resulted in what became known as the Glorious Revolution of 1688.

James was raised in exile in France where he became the focus for Jacobites hopes. Upon his father’s death in 1701, he declared himself king and was recognized as the heir by several Roman Catholic monarchs, but was attainted for treason by Act of Parliament in March 1702 in Britain and his titles were forfeited under British law.

He attempted an invasion of Britain in March 1708, but his fleet was driven off. Another attempt was made in 1715 when he achieved landfall in Scotland but had missed the crucial Battle of Sherriffmuir disappointed by the lack of support instead of attempting a planned coronation at Scone, he retreated back to France.

By this time the French were at peace with Britain and he was no longer welcome in the country. He was invited by Pope Clement XI of the Palazzo Muti to make Rome his residence. In September 1719, he married Maria Sobieski and with her had two sons, Charles Edward and Henry. He presided over his Roman Jacobite court for the remainder of his life.

He died at age 77 in Rome. He was buried within the Vatican City, in what we know as The Monument to the Royal Stuarts. The marble monument is by Antonio Canova, the most celebrated Italian sculptor of his day. It is in the form of a truncated obelisk. It carries profile portraits of the three exiled princes, and the following inscription:

IACOBO·III IACOBI·II·MAGNAE·BRIT·REGIS·FILIO KAROLO·EDVARDO ET·HENRICO·DECANO·PATRUM·CARDINALIVM IACOBI·III·FILIIS REGIAE·STIRPIS·STVARDIAE·POSTREMIS ANNO·M·DCCC·XIX

(To James III, son of King James II of Great Britain, to Charles Edward and to Henry, Dean of the Cardinal Fathers, sons of James III, the last of the Royal House of Stuart. 1819)

Below the inscription are two weeping angels, symbolising the lost hopes of the exiled Stuarts.
