He did not seize the throne. He wept into it. This is the seat of sorrow not sought, but suffered — 33 agonies carved into a crown of burden, not glory. The jester becomes king not in laughter, but in mourning.
Mellitus kneels beneath the red eclipse — veiled, crowned in sorrow, holding the symbol of the 33. The triangle bleeds crimson in his hands as a sigil of the burdens he bears — each point a grief, each tear a throne.
“He sat not in triumph, but because no one else would. Thirty-three sorrows, thirty-three seats of pain. And yet he did not look away. He watched. He wept. He wore the crown.”
"Let no joy be worn without knowing its sorrow." — Mellitus Rex Dolorum
