POCAHONTAS II: JOURNEY TO A NEW WORLD

King James made his first appearance in the sequal. When John Smith and the settlers return from Jamestown and bring Ratcliffe to justice before the King for treasoning Ratcliffe frames John Smith for the crime and makes up stuff about the insident in Jamestown to which the King foolishly believes and orders that John Smith be arrested for treasoning and brought back to justice alive. He also sends one of his men John Rolfe to the New World to bring back the Indian Chief in order to decide on war or not. Ratcliffe lies and tells the King that when John Smith was being arrested he accidently fell onto a roof tried to hang onto the roof (Ratcliffe pushed Smith off with his foot and he fell into the water) he accidently let go and Ratcliffe tried to safe him before he fell and that Smith is dead. Queen Anne suggests to her husband that they must wait for John Rolfe to return with the Indian Chief but Ratcliffe says that the Chief will tell lies and that war is the only way. King James orders Ratcliffe to prepare his Armada but states that they will wait for John Rolfe to return with the Indian Chief. When John Rolfe returns he goes to the King and tells him that he didn't bring the Chief but the Chief's daughter Pocahontas and that she is very civilized and very smart and that the King should meet her. With some advice from Ratcliffe King James orders that Rolfe will bring Pocahontas to the Hunt Ball and if she is as civilized as Rolfe claims the Armada will not sail but if she isn't the Armada will sail. At the ball Pocahontas bows to the King and Queen after Queen Anne says Welcome to England Pocahontas and when King James asks her what she thinks of his kingdom she says that King James is a great king to have so many subjects in his kingdom and loyalty of good men such as John Rolfe to which the King is very pleased and happy to hear and he calls Pocahontas a delightful and charming child. He then tells Pocahontas to go and have fun and enjoy the Ball and that they will discuss the Armada later.
