A "thrown" is a rather heavy thing to take. It is preferable to leave it where
it is and sit on it instead.

Try "assumes the thrown" or "ascends to the thrown". This is much more
practical.

Perhaps you meant "takes the crown", which is a lot lighter and easier to take.
In any event I suppose it doesn't really matter.
