Generally, the king seems to be good but I sense that there's more to the story. Meldorath does seem to deserve his situation as he seems to be up to no good and has a tremendous amount of power to go with it. The story between him and the king seems to go further than the reader is allowed to see. Voulhire seems to be thriving but is also at the brink of chaos, the quiet before the storm.Aisha_123 wrote: ↑07 Oct 2020, 00:12 King Wilhelm seems like a good king. What are your general thoughts about the King? Do you think he might have a hidden agenda for Voulhire? What do you think about the situation with Lord Meldorath? Was he right to imprison him without a trial or he didn't want to be seen as biased due to their relationship? Lastly, what do you think of Voulhire under his rule?

I agree with you. Initially I had been neutral about King Wilhelm's character. I had my doubts, but I eventually found him to be a very caring. Then again he might or might not have an agenda planned ahead. And yes, he could've handled Meldorath better. Yes, Meldorath still has potential to turn out better.RobinBennet wrote: ↑07 Oct 2020, 10:23 I think king Wilhelm has his plate full. I am not sure if he is a completely benevolent king he doesnt seem bad though. i think they all misjudged Meldorath they didnt give him the right to a trial instead they imprisoned him an dtold the world he was dead. He may seem like tha bad guy but we should keep in mind that the unknown always seems scary at first.

Wilhelm appeared very moral to design wicked plan for his kingdom, so I don't think he'll be an opponent of peace. I also sensed no hidden agenda from him. Nevertheless, I agree that the arrest of Meldorath was unfair, but I'm sure he have a reason although I'm unsure that it's enough for such an unfair treatment.Aisha_123 wrote: ↑07 Oct 2020, 00:12 King Wilhelm seems like a good king.

You brought up an interesting point about him not wanting to appear biased toward Meldorath by banishing him without a trial. Or maybe Wilhelm had other secrets to hide that Meldorath could have exposed.
