Except for the aide, 782bf56d66 everyone still believed in 1236eaef69 the Crown Prince’s reason—they c4bfb68e14 didn’t think Kaiden would 990b1b7f15 actually swing the blade.1b29f29ea7c3075d

Even if they did cf67e1dd63 step forward, they weren’t ca3f9fbc48 a match for the 60bca0325f Swordmaster Crown Prince. Many hesitated, fearing that 9926f0a1d3 going against him might 37dc8dc462 lead to repercussions later.3d39c06a3b532036
