I don't understand why the fuck the King seems so powerless? Like, can't you order the guy's execution to be pushed back? Say that you think he might be framed, and people will listen to you because you're the KING? And if indeed, Faris was going to find a reason to invade anyways, making Scarlet leave would also just have pushed back their plans right? What's the need to kill her? Like, their reasons only makes sense if the king has absolutly no power!!
Constance stepping up to what's needed here. Yeaaah
