I'm sorry-- Did they threaten to restrain the PRINCE?? Likely soon-to-be Crown Prince?? How would you even begin to explain that to the king? "We thought he was somewhere he shouldn't have been, so we restrained him." "What was so important there that he, someone who's quite eligible to rule your house soon, shouldn't have seen?" "Uhhhh" "Also, if you restrained a prince, you surely came with sufficient evidence of his intentional wrongdoing?" "UHHHHHHHH" "Also, he came saying some crazy stuff about weapons of the southern army stockpiled in your basement this morning, as well as a murder of the previous head of house? I'm sure you won't mind an investigation into all that, right??" "UUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Like what's the next step there?
