The Baby Prisoner of the Winter Castle - Ch. 26

That real Alessa has more than a few screws loose. It's understandable she's desperate, apparently pregnant out of wedlock, which is scandalous for a noble woman (or any woman in a historical setting), but her "plan" is still witless. How exactly will the real Brielle take all the blame, huh? She's nothing but a servant being blackmailed by using her sick mother against her. She's guilty of hiding the truth, yes, but in the end she's just a tool. The greatest culprit is the count, who tricked both the duke and the king. It sounds like a situation where the count's eldest son will be inheriting the county sooner than anyone expected.

Certainly, theoretically the real Brielle might lose her head, historical times were ruthless, but she was nothing but an unwilling chest piece in this affair anyway. The real culprits will obviously face their own consequences. Not to mention the real Alessa believing the duke will accept her just like that is hilarious. Why on Earth would he accept the wicked daughter of a lousy man who humiliated him? Considering the duke's personality, I imagine he wouldn't punish the fake duchess at all, but the count would receive no mercy. He's even such a taciturn man that the real Alessa's premarital pregnancy (by some unknown man) would become obvious before anything happened, if for some incomprehensible reason the real Alessa's idiotic plan seemed to work and she got the duchess's position. So, the deal would be broken with an even bigger scandal.

And yet author tried to make this look like a big problem.
Oh well. At least after this Real Brielle and the duke will be able to seriously love each other.

Her plan seems to rely entirely on hopes, dreams, wishes and perceived luck, she is no where near orky enough to be planning stuff based entirely on belief.

(and for those who don't know what I'm referencing)
The Orks in Warhammer 40K work on belief, if the orks believe hard enough that red makes you go faster than red will make you go faster. A red Truck will go faster than a truck of any other colour even when they are made the same way.
