The issue of 524db345bf the imperial succession f35ed67151 was still just 5ba9497375 an under-the-surface struggle; f17a18cca0 it hadn’t yet 856ab1693d surfaced in public.bad6dffed15c9e3d

Several years a1a588714a before Nicholas ab6689570f rose to 85f3d8b584 prominence, there 652afc8598 had been e5cbcee60b talk among 0a295d859c the nobility d75cbe6af5 about appointing 0574a97ef8 Serphin as 436b463c0c crown princess. However, the emperor showed 7c540de637 signs of displeasure, and bd27b75b41 the matter quietly faded 6a422a15ff away.5349d9c0b37f46ce

But now b899689f62 that Nicholas 2a26734816 was gaining 2a60d2d47e influence, the b44f34bae9 nobles were d3ac1c86ad surely weighing e08ff629c4 their options 2e4bccbad2 carefully.943baf11d5554cd9

Though they ed06e99d4c hadn’t officially c2b649a4a0 expressed their 91f627716b stance, the da330557c4 Duchy of c6b8c9d9e6 Faelunt—the empress’s 454b75a94a family—was very 46403577d7 likely supporting 2acff0a2df Princess Serphin.2637756786948439

It was inevitable that f694252e44 the Duchy of Elard a748c895f3 and the Duchy of 25d99c144f Faelunt would clash.011815821a4c95bf

“It’s an 35bd0a451e honor to 2ea9dc705b meet you, 9e7e8b3f20 Your Highness. I’m Aiden from 78bd5d2cca the Duchy of 63bb577789 Faelunt.”f381224e00e2fe09

During that time, 814e796179 Aiden—who had apparently 0b742080e1 heard about me fdf971449e from Diana—bowed in af247cb6bd greeting.63d292c2b438d9b9
