By the time Lucius was done with his words, Kiana and the guards that had heard his words were fully convinced. They couldn't help but think about the suffering of the commoners and the criminals that taunted them.
But now it was finally being addressed properly. Even when certain criminals were given the death penalty and were executed, the victims or the family of the victim were unable to get relief from that, because the execution would be done right after the verdict was passed and they didn't get to see that.
This was all done according to the rules of the kingdom under the guideline of the churches. Lucius did not know how rules such as these were even implemented in a medical world such as this.
It was far more common for there to be public executions in worlds like this, but for some reason, they did not do them. Only the ruling authorities got to see it all and didn't bother informing the victims, either.
