Small steps

In the Royal Palace of Vijayanagara, the bird chirped along the colorful garden. Viswa was staring towards the garden from the balcony of the Northern complex. The commotion of the nobles just ended and he was already a bit skeptical about their next move. He needed some information. 

The establishment of courts and a justice system meant the centralization of power for the Empire. The nobles power would be limited by a lot. This was the main reason behind the dissatisfaction of the local nobles. The bigger nobles didn't mind the change because they followed the command of the throne. Their influence would still be substantial even with the centralization of power. 

There was also the fact that more than half of the big nobles were killed during the civil war. They weren't replaced by Harsha because it would create problems for him in the long run due to the greed of the nobles.
