Terith's Fall (02)

The nobles in the capital lacked the power and influence necessary to challenge our army, and many had already lost their souls to Elizabeth, which made the transition of power relatively quick and peaceful, even though we could not yet measure the broader public opinion.

Still, this result would end an internal war and alleviate the citizens' worries, at the very least.

Based on Isabella and the other girls' predictions, I assumed the common folk, peasants, and merchants would not resist us much.

With their only hope being the army that had marched into Evretis, the nobles and ministers accepted Isabella's rule, albeit, momentarily.

What would, ultimately, decide this country's fate was the last battle between Isabella and Edmond, as he was the only one who still had a claim and had not surrendered his position.

And so, as her loyal aide, I prepared myself for the battle I'd face in her name against this world's hero.
