The First Royal Funeral
One day later...
After arriving in the capital of the Cromwell Kingdom, the Spiritual Church representative for that region had spent the night in Capital City, waiting for the main event she would attend.
Upon arriving in that place, she had visited the local royal family, understood the royal funeral arrangements, and greeted James' close kin.
She did not know any of the people from the Cromwell family who were in that city, not even King Cromwell himself. But as a member of the Spiritual Church, she needed to show her respect and sorrow to such people.
It did not matter if she was genuinely sorry or had no regard for the people in that region. The church had a friendly relationship with the local powers, and as such, it was best for everyone just to follow protocol for similar situations.
