    Ordonnanzes can’t be used to show that someone is dead, as there are several things that can block them. The recipient could just be in another duchy or another type of unreachable space. Ordonannzes can be used to show that someone is alive.

      Generally yes, for this specific case however, it does not matter. Hortensia is supposedly too ill to travel and resting in her room. In that situation it doesn’t matter for which of the three possible reasons the ordonnanz can’t be sent, because all three would be equally incriminating. Anyone who tried to send her an ordonnanz, but couldn’t would instantly know that something is very wrong here and that Raublut lied to the academy staff and the royal family.
