Would be very interesting to see an alternate history scenario where Edward the martyr wasn't murdered in favor of someone who was famously not ready to rule.

Ah, the evil stepmother trope. This is why you have to be careful about remarrying.

There is a reason for most tropes. That one is historical.

I’m an author and I’d like to talk to you about a Greek mythology novel I wrote.

Sounds interesting. I'd be the first to warn, however, that i am far from an authority on Greek Mythology.
