Ignis spends half of the night giving instructions. To me.
This is what he meant when he said I would need energy. And here I was already imagining lewd activities.
But it's not the right time. We need to get ready to face a war in every aspect, starting from the power struggles that may arise.
The Queen Dowager is in check, so she won't cause trouble for me. But the rest? The old faction opposing Ignis will surely attempt to take advantage of his absence, and the Queen Grandmother doesn't seem like someone who would miss the chance to join the party.
Other nobles will try to get their hands on every tiny trace of influence, and I'll be almost alone while dealing with them.
I'll have to check out and sign boring administrative decrees every day, making sure that money goes where it's supposed to. I'll have to attend the King's audience day, other than the Queen's. I'll be him for a few weeks: that's what being the regent means.
