| Koohii Story 1 | The crazy sovereign stands up from his throne, wearing nothing but a crown and a towel. That´s why they try to keep him locked up in the castle away from the public. |
| Koohii Story 2 | This one is so tricky for me. The key is to remember that the bottom stroke on the standing element takes those little crown "winglets" on the right and left. The most effective image might be of QEII (who is quite short) using her crown as a kind of stool. She´s standing on her crown rummaging through a high cupboard looking for her apron. I guess the sovereign´s servants have the day off. |
