Wait, what?
There was text in foreign language that nobody can read for several years and apparently it was from neighboring country? Even if it was most closed, backwater country, somebody would realize with language it is in a couple of days. Also, of course you need to kidnap the royalty. How they even survive that and why?
Don't even mention the execution part. Ohhh I don't love you, I will heal you but after that off with your head! Also, wasn't he blind because of the curse?
Either the translator missed some points or author really did not think that much about the plot.
Just random thought I really laughed at the beginning with all of this names and plot. It just remind me of one of this cheap cheesy Latino American TV dramas from 80s and 90s.
