The author randomly just pulled this out to extend a story cause its popular. We've never heard of this ring and what importance is it anyways? Still civil wars for petty things happens in the real world and I wouldn't be surprised that to protect oscar the previous king hid his much younger child... or the mother of child stole it
Am I crazy or does the math not add up here? He said the emperor didn't get his reign legit, but how would he have done the ceremony even with a fake ring? The previous emperor would still have to hand it to him in front of witnesses. Continuing on from that, Oscar looks to be the same age as Ceasar, so are they implying the previous emperor secretly handed the ring to a toddler and then did a fake ceremony for the current emperor? Even if we say all that doesn't matter, why would they believe this nonsense over just assuming they stole the ring and beheading them on the spot?
