I'm still convinced that Winfried will fuck it all up. He is essentially on the same level as detlinde.
Also I'm so rooting for Charlotte, I'm waiting patiently for the moment that myne is like: "I'm sorry I broke my promise to you. I will support you in your quest for Aubhood"
Can't wait for next week's part. To think we're already at Volume 27 and it still keeps getting better and better.
Also huge probs to quof & co. Absolute Madlads there.
I'm over the Wilfried hatred. I was upset because it looked like he was mad at Roz even after all she had done for him but he was acting that way he was because he was being forced into a situation he hated. He was aware of his situation enough to ask for Roz to be Aub. He doesn't know about her commoner origins so he couldn't understand why he was being forced to be the Aub. And I can't be mad at him for not wanting to be compared to Roz. She is just crazy out of his league.
I'm not saying Wilfried is a saint. There's definitely a lot of spoiled brat in his behavior. He could have tried harder to get along with Roz and done more to gain the Leisegangs' trust. But he's like, what, 14 or 15 now. It's a little much to expect him to able to manipulate adults who have been playing politics for decades but if he done less whining and more trying, he might not have been in so bad of a situation.
I think things are in a good situation for Roz's siblings now. Charlotte gets to try for Aub as she always wanted. Wilfried has time to decide what he wants to do with life and Melchior will get to spend time with his wonderful big sister and learn to be just as awesome as she is at being High Bishop. I'm rooting for Charlotte. She's always been the best candidate and I hope Wilfried is smart enough is realize that and decides to support her. He's much better off trying to Knight Commander, IMO. It's something he enjoys and he's good at.
Just turned 13.
