A again
D again
...We going with the D option.
The Council sent our more envoys to find Aolineniya.
5
And she comes to the castle less than a week later. The council shouts, grumbles, applauds and calls to install her and to ban her, before the advisor calls for ORDER.
"Why I was so hard to reach? Simples; I was merely avoiding you just to prolong your debacle and uncomfortable moment. And I had to try and raise my children without your influence of hatred and politicking."
"You don't even know how to raise human children properly!" Shouts Queen Mother Ciri, but the elven woman glares at her.
"Should I raise them like you did? Your children got themselves all killed!"
"HOW DARE YOU!?"
"Order!" The advisor had to slam the iron ball again. Aolineniya stands in the middle of the circle of humans.
"Now, I demand to be made Queen!" She shouts.
"No women on the throne!" Yells one of the noblemen, some nod and murmur in approval.
"Then we follow your own human laws and put Ethelwulf on the throne, after a short regency... by me." Some noblemen groan, and one stands up.
"That would be the same thing, for fuck's sake!" Then another stands!
"But do we have any other choice??" And then it gets worse.
"Make her a Queen!"
"Regency! Regency, then a young King!!"
"Down with the elfs, we have plenty of candidates!"
"Lady Eiri for the win!!"
"
ORDEEER!"
Slam, slam, slam, went the iron ball.
The council, murmuring, whispering... plotting... had to reach a decision.
A) Change the traditional hereditary laws and install Lady Eiri, daughter of Houlandin, on the throne of Luathbas as Queen with full rights. Her children will then inherit.
B) Change the traditional hereditary laws and install Lady Benelisse, wife of Lech, on the throne of Luathbas as Queen with full rights. Her children will then inherit.
C) Change the traditional hereditary laws and install Idorina, daughter of Lech, on the throne of Luathbas, and establish regency of Queen Mother Benelisse (amongst others), till the girl reaches the age of fifteen.
D) Change the traditional hereditary laws and install Aolineniya on the throne of Luathbas as Queen with full rights. Her children will then inherit.
E) Install Ethelwulf, son of Houlandin II and Aolineniya, as next King of Luathbas, with regency of Queen Mother Aolineniya until he reaches age of fifteen.
