I agree in your feelings for Trashta, but
1) In mostly any country, the emperor will always be the highest order and the one the knights respond to, first and foremost. Of course, money and other political reasons can change that, but navier doesn't seem that interested in power so she didn't resort to such means.
Also, have in mind the archduke just punched the emperor, and they believe it was out of love for the empress, so of course she'd take his side.
2)Well, as we all know, royal positions are won by lineage, not intelligence. I think there are a lot of real life examples, too.
3) I think the emperor was speaking sarcastically. Because the country of the archduke likes polygamy, it's ironic for him to get angry when he only got one other concubine.
Yeah I agree when speaking in the fact that this was historically based with hierarchy. But yeah I was stating my opinion lol everyone has their own thoughts. But still can’t wait for shiets to be done with trashemperor.
I feel bad for Rasta but home wrecking is still a Nono that goes for both parties, and it’s hyprocritical to say you don’t want someone to take your mans when you literally TOOK someone else’s man. Also I’m irritated by the knights like she’s y’all empress but I understand you answer to your emperor but wtf is the point of having an empress if y’all just gonna stare and ignore her. It’d be “off with their heads” for me. And the emperor, Howe he become emperor, doesn’t even understand or have knowledge of another country, the archduke culture is polygamy yet he was like oh maybe it’s cause in your country you only have one you love, DUMASS didn’t study, even the empress knew and was like ?? They literally take variety of wives in they culture/country?? Anyways can’t wait for the divorce!
