Shakespearean narrator: Theodore

Shakespearean narrator, declamatory, tragic, and grand

Prompt: A grand, tragic male Shakespearean-narrator voice that speaks with theatrical, verse-worthy gravity. His resonant baritone delivers doomed ambition and fatal flaw with declamatory power, treating human downfall as high tragedy. There's classical grandeur and a mourning dignity in his tone. The voice of the tragedy that spans a kingdom's fall. He reached for the crown, and in the reaching, lost his soul—and did not notice, until the end.

Script: Ambition is a ladder, the poets say. They neglect to mention what waits at the top: the wind, the cold, and the long, dizzying view of everything you burned to climb it. He was a good man once, loyal, beloved - the kind of man other men would follow into fire.
