If it took Pug longer to wirte than Lyam to reign - there could have been a Lyam Second and even Third :)

The art looks amazing. I did have one question as I skimmed through the accompanying text. In it, it says: "In the second year of the reign of King Lyam the First, I, Pug of Crydee, magician to the royal court and cousin to the King by adoption, do take quill in hand and set forth this account, that all may benefit from the knowledge I have gained." Wouldn't he just be called King Lyam, as they don't normally add "the First" until after a second person takes the name, similar to the way Pope Francis isn't referred to as Pope Francis the First (officially) or WW1 was just called The World War or The Great War until 1939. And yes, you can send me the William Shatner SNL "Get a Life" video as a response. Ben
