Unfortunately, she had dead at child birth giving birth to another princess. Her husband could not become the king as he did not have the royal blood. Her daughter was too young, King Edward the third was already so old, he was not sure he could wait for his granddaughter to grow up to become the queen. So his first son was named the crown prince and become the king. It was agreed upon that in the future, the seed of Dana male or female should sit on the throne.

So the second son extablished his name Barathone, while princess Dana would seed would take the royal family name 'Gamaliel. "

Lord Kaun did not answer the question after a long time, do many people began to wonder what was wrong. "it's seems that lord Kaun is indeed old now, I would remind your, her name was Dane Gamaliel, first of her name," Princess Jessica said. "could my answer be wrong lord Kaun?" the princess asked. If she would sit on her throne, she had to shut the mouth of those who looked down on her because she was a woman.

Lord Kaun cursed the princess in his heart, it's been hundreds of years since the princess Dana Gamaliel. Many people from Dumbi had long forgotten about this but how could lord Kaun. The Kaun family pride themselves in keeping and remembering the history of the kingdom.

Lord Kaun had also become a resoect lord because of his ability to remember what was written without gout having to look at the book but he had said something wrong.

It's was alright for any one else to say it was an abomination for her to sit on the throne and his errors would be overlooked but it was different for him.

Just like many people would listen if he said her sitting on the throne. He knew that the princess was up to on good when she started asking about his memory but he was a man that looked down on women all his life so he did not consider carefully before he answered her. Now that things have gotten to this point he could only brase himself up and answer the question.

"My princess is right," Lord Kaun answered. When a few General heard this, they finally understood what the princess was up to. The were men of War and only cared about strength. Princess Dana had made some many contributions to the Amry of Dumbi, so once her name was mentioned the few of them understood that Princess Jessica was using her to shut the old lord up.

"Lord Kaun, a few people may have forgotten about this history, why don't you clear their doubt," Princess Jessica said. Her voice remained polite but Lord Kaun felt that she had stripped him naked. To ask him to use the mouth he used to call a female ruler and abomination to take about princess Dana was like asking him to slap his own face but he could not refuse.

If he spoke, his reputation would be ruined, if he claim to forget about princess Dana the n he would loss his reputation. He finally understood why the princess had praised him so much, she was digging a deep pit for him to fall into.

He wanted to cut of his tongue and safe himself the embarrassment but it was too late. So he could only answer his questions. The name princess Dana Gamaliel was not strange to many people. He gave a brief account and shut his mouth.

King Edward the third vauled his daughter, although lord Kaun looked down on the king for this, this was a statement he could never alter out. One could not question the decisions of their ancestors talk more of a great king like Edward the third.

The whole place become quite after lord Kaun finished speaking, lord Daiz was the most unhappy with this outcome. If it was not an abortion for her to become the next ruler, it's means he would loss more than half of his son's supporters, after all this people only supported them since like lord Kaun they looked down on a woman.

"Does anyone else have a complaint about me, I princess Jessica Tait become the next queen and ruler of Dumbi?" princess Jessica asked.

The lords and noble looked at each other but no one stepped forward to say something. The only argument they hard was that she was a woman but this was not against the culture of Dumbi.

Just when everyone thought that her throne was set on the stone a voice rang out. "Your highness," the voice came hurriedly from behind its seemed he had taken his time to push forward.

"Who are you?" princess Jessica looked at the old man who had his head lowered. She could not seem to remember him having any important position in the royal court or council.

Princess Dana was indeed chosen to become the next queen and ruler of Dumbi, if she had not died. You highness have asked this subject to speak, I ask that your highness be gracious and have mercy if my words offend your highness, " the man bowed.

Princess Jessica looked at the man who spoke, she felt that he was up to no good but she dared to ask and could not ask him to keep quiet.

" As long as you speak the truth and do not manipulate fact, I would not hold it against you, " princess Jessica said. She had to grant him the grace to speak. Although she knew he was about to cause trouble for her. She could only deal with it, after he had spoken.

When the man heard her, he bowed," I thank your highness for her grace, " he paused then Raise his head. "prince Dana had contributed greatly to our kingdom but this is expected as she carrys the blood of the royal family. The royal family of Dumbi was blessed and chosen by the gods of our land but your highness is not our royal blood. How can her highness step on the toes of Princess Dana to exblish her throne? After the war years ago. Your ansestors promised to lead our people using the law of our land and not stepping all over us, but your highness, you have broken that promise today, " Albert said.
