In "Wolf Hall," King Henry ultimately gives in to pressure and decides to execute the young man known as the White Rose, who is just twenty-four years old. This tragic moment occurs as the young man's life is taken away under the watchful gaze of the world, symbolizing the often cruel nature of political power and the sacrifices made for it. However, the narrative hints at the idea of resilience through the mention of the Plantagenets, suggesting that although one branch may fall, there will always be others who rise. The cycle of ambition and consequence continues, indicating that the struggle for power and influence persists even in the face of individual tragedies.
