Edward rubbed his tired brow once more and turned his gaze to the advisor standing beside him, speaking wearily.
"What do you think of Bill No. 6?"
The advisor thought for a moment and replied, seemingly evasively.
"Your Majesty, I do not wish to comment on where this bill will lead our duchy, but I believe Princess Erin is indeed somewhat inappropriate; she seems to regard the sword at her waist as a crown."
Edward let out a snort of laughter.
"That's quite a harsh criticism."
"But I don't intend to take it back," the advisor nodded slightly, withstanding the sharp gaze of the monarch, "Your Majesty, if you were a dimwitted king, I would say nothing. But since it's you, you must know Richard hasn't told you the truth. The citizens of Thunder City cheer for the Campbell family name, but the person they are truly praising is your sister, the one who truly inherited the Light of Praise—"
"Enough! I understand."
