That was some pretty decent worldbuilding and sure, romance and true love won at the end, yay!! But, didn't the bad guys win when we look at the plot? The eldest prince made people go through bullshit missions that ruin their lifestyles whereas the second prince got fucking burned and is simply taking revenge due to that. Both of them made people do fucked up shit now that I think of it but idk it didn't really feel like wow great the evil is defeated and all is good. Surya seems kinda valid, who knows what their actual political views were, it prolly was based asf and focused on the people's wellbeing esp when we can see that the second prince was into actually knowing the ground reality of his vassals and improving that.
