In Defense of the King of Sounis

*unfurls flag*

 As many of you from Chatzy probably know I am interested in the King of Sounis. I’ve just about decided I’m the only one and so I’m bringing it to the comm to try and stir up some support.

 There are several reasons why I’d like to see more of the King of Sounis. First and foremost, MWT doesn’t write crap characters and there’s always more going on than you think. Reason, the second: the Magus, who I quite like, admires his king and I imagine the Magus’ good opinion is worth having. And finally, he thinks highly of Eddis and that means he has good taste.

I realize he seems a bit greedy in wanting another country, and that he might manage his barons poorly (he’s missing his best advisor after all), but I seem to recall a certain Lady Monarch we all know and love having some trouble with barons as well. And lest we forget, he’s not the only monarch that has recognized the importance of unifying the countries.

So, anyone else? Why do you (or do you not) want to hear more about the King of Sounis?

Ooh I see...Sounis would look great in that, makes him look more kingly and powerful (which is probably why he's wearing it). I can also see him standing like king Henry in one of his more famous portraits. Quite a striking stance and demeanor really.

Just don't forget the "his hair was a dark gold color and curled around his ears." :) A quote! (TT, page 11)

AND IT PROBABLY ENDEARED HIM TO HIS MOTHER AS A CHILD.

that is what I think of when I think of Sounis.

and then I start thinking about the little baby pearl teeth of the Earl that visits Ella and tries to woo her because of the mushrooms in Ella Enchanted because she tried to imagine him on his mother's lap with those little baby teeth and that too was probably endearing and...I'll just go play with my random connections in the corner now.

(I knew there was another reason that was funny when I read EE...)
