Don't you just love problems that could easily be solved with a proper conversation not getting solved??? Even if not talking about it only benefits evil a**holes, hurts your allies and can endanger your friends...
I wonder why the king never had a proper discussion with his son about the Chade family and WHY you trust them.
Why is a simple explanation and conversation so difficult??? Why let your son be enemies with him for no f***ing reason.
I don't blame the prince. I blame the idiot Emperor....
