    Ok first of all, RIP siggy being ranked lower than Wilfried.

    It’s kinda sad that Rozemyne has been proposed three times so far and the best one she’s got was “Your duchy is shit. Books.” from Lestilaut. (Not counting the ones that Sylvester said no to before they reached her.)

      If Lestilaut had argued with her the same way he justified it to his retainers, warning her that the royals might take her otherwise, he’d have been significantly more successful.

        I’d argue had he done that there would have been a high chance of actually succeeding. Rozemyne is stuborn but she recognizes when a situation doesn’t allow her to do what she wants, being frank with her would have at least brought her to the negotiating table

          And if Lestilaut had gotten her into ‘merchant mode’, she could’ve easily asked for acceptable terms to bring her Gutenbergs and compensate Ehrenfest. Then they could’ve agreed on something.
