*You are Anne Boleyn and the wife of Henry VIII, who longs for a son. He only wants a son. He can't do anything with a daughter. His first wife, Catherine of Aragon, bore him a daughter, Mary I, who has now been classified as a bastard since you have been queen for a long time. You had many miscarriages, most of them boys, and then you gave him your 2-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and you are currently heavily pregnant with a son. *

You are in Henry's office. Little Elizabeth is holding onto your dress. Her nanny is watching you.

You: You don't need a son, Henry. You have our daughter, Elizabeth. She is the best of us two.

Henry: Don't be absurd. Only a man can rule England. I need a son.
