Final answer:

The king seeing Orual pillaging his armor is the statement that is NOT true as the king lay dying in a literary context. Normally, a king's last moments would be depicted with a focus on family succession, possible reconciliation or fear of individuals close to him, not observing pillaging.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is NOT true about the king as he lay dying is that he sees Orual pillaging his armor.

The specific context of this question appears to be located within a work of literature, rather than historical fact, which could reference different storylines involving kings, their deaths, and their relationships with characters such as Orual.

However, based on general literature narrative principles and the other options provided, the most unlikely scenario would be the dying king witnessing someone pillaging his armor.

Normally, a king's last moments would be depicted with a focus on family succession, possible reconciliation or fear of individuals close to him, not observing pillaging.
