Neuschwanstein is quite heavy, and sank to the bottom. Henry VII had a thing for Cleopatra, and kept within reach. William Marshal rose to the top, while James Douglas was of middling skill; both departed Neuschwanstein in the same direction. Cleopatra liked to walk on the edge while keeping her eyes on Neuschwanstein. Maria Theresa felt very alone, unable to see anyone, and Thomas Becket was seen preaching beside James Douglas.
