The four boys died in battle, and the queen and the princes mother died of grief. All that was left of the family was the king and his grandson, so the king remarried for the good of the kingdom. The king died, and the queen took over the duties because the prince, who was seventeen , could not take over the kingdom until his eighteenth birthday. The queen, not wanting to give up her power, proposed that the prince should marry her, but the prince ran off with his love (a farmer's daughter) to return on his eighteenth birthday to reclaim the throne. After the prince had slept with his love under the yew tree, he killed her, so he would be able to blame it on the queen and get the support he need from the villagers
First power, amongst the royal family the mother, Eleanor is the Queen; the father is King Henry, the youngest son John, middle son Geoffrey, and oldest son Richard.

It is not always about war and killing people to prove your powerful, but in Richards’s ways that is the only way. Richard says, “I am a constant soldier, a sometime poet, and I will be king.” This quote describes the type of person Richard wants to be, he wants to have all the power to rein over the castle and do it through war. Each of the family members is jealous of one another especially the children of the king and queen, it is pretty much a sibling rivalry between them. Having power can be a good thing or bad thing, in this situation the king and queens children have a different view on having power and what they would do if crowned

(8). The king will go above and beyond to destroy the boy and prevent him from marrying his daughter. He never clearly states as to why he is opposed to the idea of the princess getting married. The king’s subconscious, or the id, is secretly romantically in love with his daughter, which is why he detests the young boy. “To understand this would mean he must accept the fact that his own emotions may so overpower him that he does not have control over them - a very scary thought” (Bettelheim, 30).
