Special privilege (2)

This token had only appeared in the later parts of the game, near the end of the noble quest line.

It was a token that had been taken forcefully by the fourth prince to enforce his will on the people of the capital when he started his coup. So I had seen how powerful this token could be.

But why did the fourth prince have it now?

It should have been something that was forcefully taken from the king later in the game…

Could it be that the fourth prince had this all along?

If so, then what was the point of the fourth prince's coup in the game?

The king should have already trusted the fourth prince at this time and should have made him his successor, so why did things progress the way that they did in the game?

When I learned all of this, I couldn't help feeling even more confused about the plot of the game.

It seemed like there was some kind of large hidden plot that no player had been able to discover before this…
