Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"In Episode 2, Riche is present when Cromwell's justification for the Dissolution is shattered by Gregory's moral challenge. In Episode 3, Riche is present when Fitzwilliam publicly mocks Cromwell's power as sorcery, undermining his legitimacy. Both moments test the foundations of Cromwell's authority with Riche as silent witness."
