"I've watched you grow since you were a child. Could I not know that though you were valiant and upright, you lacked some of the deep cunning and strategic foresight of a king?"
Ester casually tugged Alfred's ear, furrowing her brows, "If I told you, your big mouth would have long spread the news, making it hard for you to handle, and bringing catastrophe to Coldflame Kingdom."
