A Ruler

On the other side of the throne hall, the elected scholars and intellects of the Anka began questioning the seven princesses.

Some of them looked calm while some looked aggressive, especially towards Alora. Thus, the first question that sounded in the hall was, 'Imagine a powerful witch threatens the kingdom with dark magic, but capturing her risks ignites a full-scale rebellion among royals and nobles. How would you navigate this delicate situation to protect the kingdom without provoking further unrest?'

The throne went to utter silence. They looked at each other and eyed Alora.

Eugenie gritted her teeth at the direct indication but wasn't able to object to the question. The question assesses crisis management skills, and the ability to handle complex diplomatic scenarios and prioritize the kingdom's overall stability. The question was valid although the man who questioned was pointing to Alora as a witch.
