Woo double chapter upload, thanks!

LOL nice that she's still writing to Sandra, not that she has malicious intent towards her yet since they're friends but imagine if someone else like 'snooping' on the letter/trying to read something written by Mitsuba not intended for them fell ill the moment they touched/unwrapped it XD

I'd think military rations would be not pleasant unless this is before the time of dehydrated food and even then it'd be like plain bread or so versus them also being told to hunt their own stuff and just dried fruits as a side

@TulipMoon "Soldier' misspelled, page 13


Oof that mom is a piece of work at least she seems to care that her son died

Becoming a senator definitely wasn't on her bingo list
I guess it's delegating responsibilities but it's interesting the concept of a 'senator' exists on top of there being a queen/king
and other nobility unless she's supposed to represent the wants/needs of the common man/soldier

what's that woman smoking to forget her position?
i mean she did basically usurp her position by poisoning her father, she just didn't expect mitsuba to be some unstoppable monster , otherwise i'm sure similar schemes like this would've worked in some stories/irl situations lol

Assuming she has more power/as much power as if her nobility was reinstated, maybe she can throw her 'stepmother' in jail for like , treason or so, if she doesn't just send her 'negative aura' power to her to automatically kill her as opposed to making her suffer long term, if she has that kinda control maybe she'll kill literally every servant/friend around her til she's alone and drive her mad or so to where she takes her own life versus execution or so, if not like kill her last son in front of her/manipulates the son into killing her, somehow

The "senate" has meant very different things at very different points in time and places in the world. At its most literal, it just means "assembly of elders", and at some points in Roman history, the Roman Senate was basically just a bunch of advisors to the actual power-wielder.

Historically most monarchies had parliaments of some kind. In France they had the estates general. Usually the parliaments were for the nobility to politically organize and have a say in how the country is run collectively. In France’s case the estates general had basically no power and could only advise and petition the king and they could be called and dismissed by the king.

France also had parliaments, however those were judicial in nature and they had multiple parliaments like the Paris Parliament, the Bordeaux Parliament, etc.

I mean , they basically let Mitsuba "re-invent" the guillotine as basically a student project so she's gonna get even more power lol

Imagine if she got handed like 3 stacks of paperwork or some bs and everyone who created/wrote on it all dropped dead b/c she got annoyed XD
