[Hartington Hold] A retreat before the storm?

Post by Gwyneth Angus-Moonoak »

The announcement of Her Imperial Highness Gwyneth Angus-Moonoak of Waffel Paine of her resignation from the Frenzy came as a shock to great many people, including ordinary Klaasiyans, including the Royal Court at Borders Bay. In a short resignation statement addressed to the Speaker of the Frenzy, the former Natopian Vicereine referred to a reluctantly taken "decision" which made her resign her post.

As the Emperor, a son of Gwyneth, is facing what is probably the greatest crisis of his reign up to this point, it did not take long for media speculations to spread out, pointing the former Crown Duchess' disapproval of Zakyyr's turbulent style of governance as the reason. The rumours gained further authenticity following the Klaasiyan Royal Court's statement, in which they failed to say whether or not the decision had been coordinated with Zakyyr's court. As a matter of fact, following a question from a media reporter, the Court's spokesperson said the decision was Gwyneth's "and we respect it fully and without consideration".

Gwyneth was on her way to Hartington Hold, the lovely family retreat of her husband that they possessed for more than 15 years. Despite them visiting it every now and then, the family had not been able to inhabit it permanently since the days before the Crown Ducal coronation. But now that she was no longer a Vicereine, and had no permanent role in the capital, she hoped her desire for reviving the times past would become possible, at last. Once her husband was freed up from the obligation to sit during the proceedings of the trial between.... her son and her daughter-in-law. This thought, despite realising that right from the beginning this was an arranged marriage, even an incident, was killing her from within. What had gone so terribly wrong? And was the worst still to happen?
