if i am not wrong, the church is afraid of the influence of the Neuschwanstein and Shuri at some point. it is their way of not only keeping them "in place" But also to impose the authority of the church onto other noble families. if the greatest noble family, who's next only to the imperial family crumbles under the church authority, no one would dare to cross them

I think this event been expanded to months irl is also giving us the opportunity to experience the length of this trial and how everyone who was involved in it wants it to end, which lowkey mirrors reality. Because irl trials are also long, so i think the artist expanding the narrative is a nice touch. But thats just me.
I really want this to be over with it feels like this situation has been happening for months now. Like it’s so draining and this conflict is so stupid cuz what even is the purpose of the church doing this it annoys me so bad like she finally gets a point where her family actually cares for her and then here comes the fuckass church trying to shove incestous adultery accusations at her AND IT STICKS??? LIKE WHY WHAT IS THE PURPOSE?? SHES SUPPOSED TO BE DANCING AT BALLS WITH THE EMPRESS WHILE SKOWLY FALLING IN LOVE WITH NOAH BUT THIS FUCKERS WITH EYEBAGS RUINS EVERYTHING I NEED HIM TO BE BURNED AT THE STAKE KILL HIM KILL HIM NOW PLEASE
