Saxony

Saxony appears in Cromwell's dismissal of a Plantagenet pretender's claim—an alchemist's tale of Edward IV's surviving heir who lived there before plotting a return to England. Cromwell waves it off as irrelevant, a late ghost from Yorkist exile across the Channel. The mention paints Saxony as a shadowy continental haven for dynastic dreamers, too distant and outdated to threaten Tudor power amid fresh religious perils.
