Letters from the Front

Having found out that the Royal Family of Bavaria had been the ones responsible for her mother's death. Heidi decided to ultimately drop the matter entirely. Though this information could be used to discredit the von Wittelsbach household and even suppress their autonomy, which they displayed as a result of the unification of the German Empire. 

Heidi was ultimately not political. Nor was her loyalty directly to the Kaiser. Rather, her husband and her family came before any allegiance she may have to the German Reich. And it was out of fear of what the von Wittelsbachs would do to her husband and children if she dared press this matter that ultimately forced the woman to settle this matter entirely. 

She knew now that her father, who she had held accountable for her mother's death for years, and hated as a result, was innocent. She also knew that the man's proposal of marriage between herself and Bruno had been an act to protect her.
