The King | ==={{DQ3}}=== | ||
The King rules over the [[Romaria|Romarian peninsula]], and is regarded by his people as "Il Re". The King is not unpopular, but he does not enjoy his position as reigning sovereign and would rather slack off much to his father's chagrin. His wife the [[Queen of Romaria|Queen]] takes her role more seriously, and usually keeps her husband's lackadaisical attitude in check. | |||
At some point prior to the game, his [[King's crown]] was stolen by [[Robbin' 'Ood]].

When the [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|Hero]] arrives in Romaria, he enlists their help to retrieve his crown from the thieves. Upon its return, the King praises the Hero for their might, muses that they ought to have a realm of their own, and insists on abdicating in their favor. If the player accepts, the Hero is immediately crowned King or Queen. During this time, the former king embraces his new life as a commoner and spends his time gambling in the city's [[Monster Arena]]. However, when the Hero tells the former King that rulership makes them unhappy, he says he cannot in good conscience force them to be ruler against their wishes, and becomes King once more. Having enjoyed his brief respite from ruling, he wishes the Hero well on their journey. | ||

The King of Romaria travels with the four other kings to the [[Baramos' Lair|ruined lair of Baramos]] to honor those who fell to the archfiend when the monster slew the [[King of the Necrogond]] and invaded the kingdom. When they arrive, the group is horrified to find that monsters have returned to the lair and are attempting to revive Baramos. | |||
The King of Romaria is in one of the cellars of the castle, mourning a corpse resting on a bed. He is facing the wall, and is startled when the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] speaks to him. He is uneasy about the dangerous situation, and does not hesitate to state that he wishes he'd have forced the Hero to keep his crown if he knew this would happen. | |||
