Road to the Crown

Political marriage, war taxes, subsidies, a tribute... All those terms sound nice when one juggles them from behind the screen of his trusty computer! Junk food? Check. Sugary drinks that will cause me diabetes? Check. Two weeks of leave from the work? Check. A fresh copy of the newly released game finishing downloading as I'm going back from the grocery store? Check. Oops! My emotions got better to me, and I tripped on the stairs. I'm so silly! Then... Why the hell am I kneeling in a throne room, watching the marriage and coronation ceremony of the King, dressed in the noble robes with the game itself only flashing in the corner of my eyes?

15th June 1574

"I'm going to come clean before you guys and you, my lord."

Taking a deep breath, the carpentry plant manager whose name I recently learned to be Frank, cleaned his attire from the non-existent dust before picking up his sentence.

"I never dreamed that those houses would be so luxurious!"

Hearing those words, I couldn't help but smile. While something as simple as toilet bowl would have to wait normally about two hundred years to be invented, the basic plumbing system for severs already existed. There was even one anecdote I remembered about Henry, that he was pleasantly surprised that contrary to French palaces, on the royal castle of Wawel, there were designated spots for one's basic needs!

Yet it came without saying that maybe outside the richest magnates in the country, this house that was nearing its finish was the very first, commonly accessible property with a fully-fledged toilet!
