And how, do I beg to know, would you suggest they go applying the french razor?This oringial WN/LN writer thought they were so clever but really "I don't want to do something that leads to war so here lets do this other thing that will have a high chance of war happening" This is all very stupid.
Not only is it stupid but she's risking her life for no reason, her Father can just assassin her in the castle like how the spies got in. I get not wanting to go to war but clearly her family should get the French Razor and everyone will be happy.
I mean you can Cassus Belli just from having a spy form the organization just in general. Also the church seems unpopular as seen by the people who didn't wanna become slaves but were forced too. Could easily go down the route of "Freeing the people from a tyranical government"And how, do I beg to know, would you suggest they go applying the french razor?
We're not talking an unpopular despot of an impoverished country here, we're talking about the ruler of a much stronger country who holds a great deal of resentment over a recently lost war, one which happened due to opportunism from the other part.
Cassus Belli is the thing they're banking on here, even today in the real world it is a very important thing to have, hence her risky bet.

I'm fine with the poisoning plan overall, just seems so weird tye lost kingdom can makes demands to the winners of a war.Personally, I feel that the princess poisoned herself was a good move. She control the dosage and ensure that it looks bad but not lethal. Her side was in control of the situation and can take advantage of it. As well as preparing the antidote. Is it risky? Of course. But this way, they were prepared.
