One of my short stories is going to focus on the Williams-Cromwell family, and all I can think is if Oliver Cromwell hated Catholics that much, his great-great granddaddy surely did.
#he got it from somewhere#and i mean they all got it from thomas and his reasons for so silly in a bad way#this story is called 'cardinal sin'#which features richard and walter#but there are other characters#there is a priest and nun who are niece and nephew to the bishop of winchester#and then there is mary I#and then some of the howard family - the main character he is from the howard family kinda#but a while ago i made a post basically stating that we never know anyone's true reason as to why they act the way they are#i think for t cromwell himself there was like a lot of greed and need for power#but you have richard who was killing catholics#and my personal opinion or at least what im writing in this story is that richard lost someone close to him when he was fighting the rebels#and he went to being decent to catholics to just...flat out hating them#and instilling that in his lineage#and then i mean historically speaking who put his uncle to death??#he keeps some catholics close to him tho - which when the story delves into those catholics being gardiners it's kinda funny#obviously it is more nuanced than that i personally am always pro-catholic during the reformation era#but like ive mentioned so much none of these couriers are black and white and evil for no reason#at least...not all of them#some of them are TRUST#but i am always kinda empathetic toward the cromwells
