Saying goodbye to Melissa, whose belly was growing bigger, Hudson once again set out for the capital. For the child that was about to be born, all he could say was sorry.
The shift in royal power was bound to create chaos. Although this trip to the capital seemed to be for mourning, in reality, it was about the redistribution of new interests.
The end of the old era, the beginning of the new. With the change of the monarch, many positions within the kingdom needed to be adjusted at this very moment.
Including some policies of the Caesar III era, they could now potentially be brought up for reconsideration.
Although Hudson had no power to direct the kingdom's decisions, he remained an important participant in this process, and his absence was undeniable.
Disputes were a small matter, the real fear was sparking a real fight. Just flip through the history books of the neighbors, there are too many examples of nobles clashing over disagreements.
