Great points, Magdalena really should be paying attention, and/or be deeply concerned that her son's future wife and duchy are being guided by this madman. :-) Interesting that she doesn't seem to have objected to his appointment there, or apparently felt the need to send another person in. Is Ferdinand really the only person in the whole country who could save Ahrensbach - like there's not a spare person in one of the other upper duchies to send instead or in addition?

But on the other hand, it's not unusual for humans to get stuck on their initial impressions of someone, especially when that impression is overlaid with strong emotion, so it's not a terrible surprise that she has such harsh thoughts about him.
