A Horrifying Bloom (Ch.691)

"How is the ignorance of the people to mistake that... girl as the High Queen's reincarnation, how is it also a fault of mine? I do not control the minds of the people!" Lady Diandre hissed in displeasure.

"No, you do not. If you did, that would at least be one of the lost royal arcane magic." Lord Fintan replied blankly.

Lady Diandre's fists clenched tighter at Lord Fintan's words, it was true that the arcane magic had become difficult, nearly impossible for the royal heirs to practice.

Bound by the High Queen's curse, the most promising of the royal heirs would exhibit one of the arcane magic abilities at best, and in this generation, there was only Adrienne with her mind manipulating magic.

But even in Adrienne's case, her mind manipulation magic was unstable and she herself could not fully comprehend or control it and as such its benefits left much to be desired when contrasted with the High Queen's original arcane abilities.
