" Give me one good reason to believe you, I've known these men for decades, while you are an outsider, why should I trust your words over theirs and insult their pride by having them investigated?
Their years of service MEAN something to me.
I don't consider the warnings of the monarch of the won knight clan to be empty words.
But I don't have it in me to question the integrity of my own people.
If there were really dark faction loyalists in my camp, there would be some honest member to have reported it to me over all these years.
But I have not received one such report and that is what bothers me the most.
Because the only way this is true, is if more than 90% of my council is infected which is a scary outcome for me to swallow.
I take these men's advice to run my country, to form my policies and to enforce my laws.
