    Ok first of all, RIP siggy being ranked lower than Wilfried.

    Second of all, of course that book request is ridiculous Rozemyne, Ehrenfest is the only duchy capable of printing them after all. Gonna be tough adjusting to that.

    Third: Anastasius definitely acted out of panic back when he semi threatended Rozemyne, dude is rude but he is correct and it does not seem like he is actually hostile. I do think out of all the royals he has the best plan but I think nobody is going to listen to him, something they’ll sorely regret down the line I’m sure. On the topic of royals, someone show Wilfried to Hildebrand because that boy is on the best way to become just like Wilfried. Not good at all and something that will likely cause even more mayhem than Rozemyne’s antics down the line.

      It’s kinda sad that Rozemyne has been proposed three times so far and the best one she’s got was “Your duchy is shit. Books.” from Lestilaut. (Not counting the ones that Sylvester said no to before they reached her.)

        If Lestilaut had argued with her the same way he justified it to his retainers, warning her that the royals might take her otherwise, he’d have been significantly more successful.

          I’d argue had he done that there would have been a high chance of actually succeeding. Rozemyne is stuborn but she recognizes when a situation doesn’t allow her to do what she wants, being frank with her would have at least brought her to the negotiating table

            And if Lestilaut had gotten her into ‘merchant mode’, she could’ve easily asked for acceptable terms to bring her Gutenbergs and compensate Ehrenfest. Then they could’ve agreed on something.
