I think it’s really silly to blame King for acting like this since it’s in character for him. He is a character ruled by guilt. At first it was guilt for letting his sister die, then the fairy forest, then helbram, then Diane, and so on. So it makes sense that he will still feel guilty over the abandonment of his oldest since they was stolen from him and Diane. It also makes sense that he would think Mertyl would be fine bc Mertyl has been hiding EVERYTHING he was feeling and he trusts his son enough to not read his heart constantly. Hopefully they can talk this out like a family
