How are they expecting this to not become a war, when they are kidnapping the king, most of royalty, and the hero's fiancee (and possibly hero too)? Oh, they aren't expecting that, they are fully aware of their actions consequences. Carry on then...
EDIT: Also, what was the concealed record at the start about? I can't read it, and the dialog doesn't make it clear what it is about. I would have guessed embezzlement, but then they continues heaping accusations on her, so it is not clear which accusation (if any) is directly tied to that record.
