Don't know what it is but Arendt is starting to remind me a bit of Valer.
🫰 Got it, it's that neither of them is/was giving Neveah what she needs to establish herself as duchess/empress.
With Valer it's obvious, he didn't marry Neveah or back her up socially.
Arendt is doing a much better job but he keeps trying to "protect" Neveah by not giving her information she's obviously going to need.
How does he expect Neveah to deal with his mom with barely any intel on her and none on his ex fiancee?
