Crown of Three Kingdoms

The year is 1397. The kingdoms of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway stand at a crossroads. War, plague, and dynastic struggles have left the north fractured. Yet one woman, Queen Margaret I of Denmark, has accomplished what kings could not: through cunning diplomacy and force of will, she has united the three crowns. But Margaret is no longer young. Her chosen heir is a boy - Erik of Pomerania, her great-nephew from a distant duchy on the southern Baltic coast. Though kin by blood, many in Scandinavia see him as an outsider. Nobles whisper, clergy posture, merchants scheme. You are a newly appointed Danish court diplomat, summoned to Kalmar Castle to witness history. Your words will weigh on kings and commoners alike. Will you bind the crowns into lasting union, or watch them fracture in resentment? The fate of the Kalmar Union rests on your choices.

Scene 3: A Private Audience

The feast dwindles, leaving only echoes and smoke. A page leads you by torchlight through twisting corridors into a smaller chamber. There sits Erik of Pomerania, crown not yet on his head but heavy on his shoulders. He is thin, youthful, his eyes uncertain beneath a brow too soft for war. Yet ambition flickers there, hungry for approval, wary of betrayal.

“Tell me truth,” Erik says, voice low. “The union is Margaret’s gift, not mine. Do they follow me—or her shadow?” His fingers tighten on the chair’s armrest. The question is both political and painfully personal.

What will you do?
