A mob do be a mob. Hating the girl that lived in luxurious ignorance while everyone suffered to pay for her stuff is quite easy.As a dumb mob they executed an innocent...
Kaid was the son of a noble himself, and the king wanted something done about them but couldn't touch them for fear of reprisal. Though why the king gave him the territory and didn't punish him for the sake of appearances, I don't know.@TheGodEmperor I know right that and why did the king not purge him for over throwing a noble family he presumely put in charge or at least the previous royalty if this was crusader kings and some outside random killed off one of the nobles and took over it would be head lobbing time
The novel explains it more, but the former lords, her family, were a real thorn for the royalty and they couldn't do anything about them because they had distant royal blood in em. So Kaid basically helped the king by getting rid of em.@TheGodEmperor I know right that and why did the king not purge him for over throwing a noble family he presumely put in charge or at least the previous royalty if this was crusader kings and some outside random killed off one of the nobles and took over it would be head lobbing time
I dunno if I agree with it being the correct moral decision. And it is more her speculation that would have happened, noting confirmed and nothing to say it couldn't easily be countered. After all, as I said, in the novel, the king wanted that family gone. Her being a woman, sadly, prolly would mean she couldn't inherit or so as easily if it is a typical patriarchal society. Hell, coulda married Kaid in her last life as a solidifying of his power. But, man, that would be awkward after everything.The two of them got a moment of peace and happiness, which means it's time for all the sleeper agents to activate.

Though as has been re-iterated repeatedly throughout the work, as awful as it was, having her killed was the correct decision. The populace has peace of mind, and the connected corrupt nobles don't immediately pounce on her to use her status and inheritance for themselves.
