·Why did you help Robert?
After Duke Robbie left, Big Orange asked Durin this question.
"I am not helping him; I am helping everyone on this land."
"Northern Doctrine is now extremely weak in terms of strength, and among the princes, it is quite clear that Prince Kelsey has no sway with the military. Sando and Jon, the two brothers, are both serving in the military and are obviously intricately linked with the entire military, which is exactly why Sando is so brazen."
And what about Locke? Although Locke claims he doesn't involve himself with politics, this young man has too much money and is very close with the nobles from the five Southern Kingdoms—most importantly, his wife is a distant niece of Duke Robbie."
"Duke Robbie is his man, and with the Southern Nobility behind him, just as Prince Sando has the support of the Northern Nobility and the military."
