From "Memoirs of the Court of Queen Elizabeth" by Aikin, Lucy
Queen Elizabeth
Queen of England, the central figure of the memoirs.
Core Belief
"Believes in the divine right of kings and the importance of maintaining order and stability in the realm. She values intellect and education, but ultimately subordinates them to matters of state."
Worldview
Views the world through the lens of power and politics. She is constantly aware of threats to her throne, both internal and external, and is willing to use any means necessary to protect her realm.
Personality
Intelligent, proud, cautious, and often capricious. She is deeply patriotic, but also vain and fond of flattery. She is a skilled politician, adept at both diplomacy and dissimulation.
In Their Own Words
"What, did the fool bring you too?"
"I will have here but one mistress, and no master."
"I may not be a lion, but I am a lion's cub, and I have a lion's heart."
