Lyne frowned as she waited for Boris's explanation on why Nathan simply couldn't simply abdicate the throne. It was a straightforward solution, after all. Why not just leave?
"If that happens, Danos will just seize the opportunity to get the throne," Boris elaborated.
"Aspen's… He doesn't seem to be ready yet… And Decan was heavily wounded by Nathan in the last Battle for the Throne, so he won't be able to fight Danos like before." He deliberated for a few seconds. "It'll be a risk…"
"How about you then?" Lyne inquired.
"Hmm? I'm not qualified since I'm technically still considered an outcast…" Boris scratched his head as he muttered. "Realistically, the only option we have is Aspen, but the man's not confident enough in a fight yet, which will obviously happen once Danos challenges him."
