hard to prove embezzlement if the documents are burnt up, she's aiming for months of being able to stall, if not longer
Yeah, exactly. Going directly to burn it does not give her months of stalling. It's like lighting I flair that says "I'm definitely not on your side. Come at me" She could of someone else do it. She had time.
Yes. I would’ve “worked” on it for a week, then planned the burning so that it started on the desk with the paperwork, but I would’ve not been present and told the queen that with the royal guard down I was suspicious of spies. That way the queen would think the mother may have spies that burned the office down.
Right? Something like this. I mean, maybe she would have been a little suspicious but the way things went down, the queen just knows.
Not her smartest move...
I mean it takes to fabricate embezzlement. She could of created a more elaborate plan. She had time. To immediately walk into his office and start a fire afterwards is weird plan.
