Nah fam this ain't it,had great characters but it all went to shit.I'd argue that Edmund would be happier away from the power struggles of the empire but his happiness should've been included in the story rather than focusing on "he'll go down the right path" like what do you mean?he's such an angelic kid that even in that environment he always showed kindness. And he deserves a relationship with Carlyle too,why deny the brothers of that?they are still cousins if anything and they clearly share a bond. And the other characters were completely excluded in the conclusion of the story, what about Jeremy?what's he going to do moving forward? Just suffer from an one-sided love? Lizenna in most of the story was a great villainess character with depth, you’ve got to give her credit for raising carlyle the way he was. In the end she turned into an one-dimensional typical villainesses. The story would benefit greatly if they showed her having a multitude of emotions and thoughts rather than turning her into this generic villainess, the story and the situations could have been more nuanced or have multiple dimensions to it. The biggest problem is the title itself. The title itself leads the reader to believe that it'll be about the regrets of the emperor and the empress resisting them vehemently but we get a story which is mostly about solving issues within the political sphere and her accepting his regrets quite easily I'd say.
