Kingdom, there must be a dethroning of Claudius, but could it even be considered dethroned if the seat was taken in deceit to begin with? Hamlet’s purpose to the play is to take the momentum built up from the tension between he and his uncle and put the kingdom back into the molded palms of the descendant of the true king. This action sets a vengeful tone to the rest of the tragedy that is then spread into the mouths of every other character. At rock-bottom and with nothing else to lose, Hamlet reveals himself as the grieving and misunderstood son of the late king. With life moving forward as if the monarchy of Denmark has not undergone a complete turn upside down, Hamlet finds himself at a crossroad. What is his next move and how was he to continue on without his father, should he move on with everyone else or do what is “just”? From this moment forward deception takes control of the story and alters Hamlet’s being. Hamlet must now deceive others into believing his act, so the eventual killing of Claudius will look like it is
