A month after the incident, the aftermath of the autumn banquet in Golden Palace was huge. The news that Crown Prince Charles went rampant because of Grand Duke Aster's unscrupulous behavior spread like a wildfire, and the public opinion was split in two.
'Crown Prince Charles is too unstable! He can be another Emperor Leopold!'
'No! He is only like that because Grand Duke Aster was acting like an incubus! He is an outstanding man nevertheless!'
'So did Emperor Leopold! He was an outstanding man too, but he got crazy because of that witch Empress Eva! Who knows what will happen if Grand Duke Aster becomes crazy too? We will be doomed!'
'Now you blame Grand Duke?! He is just trying to enjoy the party! What kind of man would want to chain his spouse inside the bedroom forever! The Crown Prince is a psychopath!'
