Summary:
Laurent has a talk with Damen as he settles into kingship.

Canst thou, O partial sleep, give thy repose
To the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude;
And in the calmest and most stillest night,
With all appliances and means to boot,
Deny it to a king? Then, happy low, lie down!
Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.

- "Henry IV, part II," act III, scene i

I'm happy to get another fic that's been sitting in my GDocs out the door before spring break here. I'm barely making it - there's a half hour before the museling is out of school - but I hit my goal. Hooray! (I love playing in Laurent's voice, I have to say.)
