Once upon a time in a faraway land, there lived a very powerful king. He was quite good at being a king, and ruled for longer than any other monarch in the history of the whole world.

Yet his heart was glad because his people called him The Sun King, and not the other nickname he’d so richly earned: The Enema King.
