The Battle of Gerlach begins at last. How does Rozemyne’s fight against Grausam play out, and what happens to Ehrenfest in the aftermath? Behold the full extent of the explosive war shaking Yurgenschmidt to its very foundation!
A shame about Hortensia. I was sure Raublut would keep her alive, so they could use her to open the underground archive… Well, at least Solange is (relatively) safe and sound, thanks to Gervasio liking her.
Though now I can very well understand why Raublut hates the current royals and Klassenberg. They could have just sent the residents of the Adalgisa villa back to Lanzenave, but instead executed them all for essentially no reason. With how Trauerqual resisted the purge and only eventually gave in to Klassenberg’s and his other allies’ pressure, I am certain the execution of the Adalgisa residents was also something forced on him. After all he refused to execute even those with close ties to the guilty, so I can’t imagine him wanting to execute completely innovent people. This reluctance would also explain why Raublut still harbours some sympathy for Trauerqual, rather then being completely blinded by lust for his blood.
But damn, Hortensia must have been on the lower end of archnoble mana capacity if it took her a full day to dye one key, while Gervasio’s retainers were able to do it in the blink of an eye.
This also means that Gervasio has high archduke candidate manalevel retainers with him, since even Hannelore struggled a bit to full the key and she’s from a greater duchy.
