  • Charlesjsharp, Though it is not used in the infobox, it's a rare piece. The image is actually relevant in both articles because the articles talk about the rise to power, without the help of the king it would impossible. If you read the rise to power section in both article, they talk about him. This image is far better than the image used in the infobox. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 09:46, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
