Description

Nel febbraio 1306 Robert Bruce insieme a un piccolo gruppo di uomini aveva ucciso John Comyn, III Signore di Badenoch di fronte all'altare della chiesa dei Greyfriars di Dumfries. I due appartenevano a due famiglie rivali che, benché avessero dovuto giurare fedeltà ad Edoardo I d'Inghilterra, pena la morte, stavano rivaleggiando per impadronirsi della corona di Scozia. Secondo il poema The Brus scritto da John Barbour i due avrebbero siglato un accordo che prevedeva l'infrazione del giuramento che entrambi avevano prestato, tuttavia il cattivo sangue che scorreva fra loro avrebbe reso impossibile lavorare insieme come Guardiani del regno. Dopo la morte di Comyn per Robert era svanita ogni possibilità di riappacificarsi con Edoardo e fece quello che probabilmente aspirava a fare, si incoronò re a Scone poche settimane dopo l'omicidio.
