At this point in their conversation, their voices were already echoing in the hall. Everyone did realize that Galanos wouldn't probably desert his position as the minister of a kingdom that was doing rather well compared to Musanea. That only meant that his heir should be the one being sent to take it. Moreover, who was Callum Princesley? Wasn't he one of Princess Havina's guards before?
Then again, it seemed like he had come to Ellis Plains to become a ducal knight. Even if that seemed to be a strange move and a huge decrease in status, the Knights chose to follow the words of their princess.
By then, most people were realizing what just happened. Musanea wasn't awarded to Achlys… it was awarded to the archduke who had come there to take it back from the heretics. Moreover, as a gift to one of his daughters, he handed the kingdom to House Princesley! The very same House whose daughter lost the honor of marrying the prince because of him!
