So there is guidance of godess of time at play for Ferdinand. It just opens a lot of questions. I can't wait for H5Y or sequel.

So Oswald manipulated Barthold by amplifing his emotions so he can manipulate Wilfred as his namesworn.

I don't know about the goddess of time... why would the goddess reveal to them, that Ferdinand was going to be engaged with Detlinde, but wouldn't actually marry her and then erase their memories of it?

If it wasn't for the specific mention of Ferdinand marrying "Aub Ahrensbach," I'd have thought someone tried to make him marry Alstede, or some other female Ahrensbach archduke candidate, but had to scrap their plan and used Trug to hide it ever existed. Could the use of Aub Ahrensbach be a mistranslation, or maybe a missing word, like Aub Ahrensbach's daughter?

Wow... just when a small spark of sympathy is sparked for Barthold, for actually caring for his sister, it is immediately squashed and my bad opinion of him made even worse. And I now also hate Oswald more than I already did. I really hope he'll suffer a fate far worse than merely sinking into obscurity.
