Two specific examples of Dravot and Carnehan embracing their fantasy of being kings are:
- Dravot breaks a man's neck -this man was trying to rob other men- and then fires a gun at twenty more men. Because of this, the men think he is a great god and they make him their king, and so Dravot says that he would make fine nation out of them, or he would perish in the making. This properly shows him embracing his fantasy of being king.
- Carnehan conquers a different kingdom and tells Dravot that the abundance of his kingdom is more than he could ever handle. Subsequently, Dravot crowns himself and Carnehan too. Carnehan considers the crowning a proper miracle. This last sentence properly shows him embracing his fantasy of being king.
Over exaggerated
In the context of this passage, which is talking about how Facebook is attempting to cut down on incorrect, fake, or 'sensationalized' news, the word clearly means news that is not true or over exaggerated in a way that makes it 'click bait'-something that isn't clear, objective content.
