BRO I DONT BLAME THE ORIGINAL HEIR FOR GOING MAD SINCE HE IS RIGHT?! Imagine working hard on smth for so long and sacrificing your freedom for the greater good only for an unborn child to suddenly take your place???????? LIKE??? YOU SPENT ALL YOUR TIME AND RESOURCES TRAINING THIS PERSON ONLY TO REPEAT THAT PROCESS AGAIN EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE A VIABLE CANDIDATE?!?!?
Like i dont condone cheating but its kinda obvious that the bird ppl practice polygamy/concubines so thats that. Honestly the main problem is the laws that the birdpeople have. Like, if the og crown prince was literally allowed to keep his position, he wouldnt have gone mad, his mother wouldnt need to rightfully avenge him, and the king and his side piece can live peacefully even with the child
Ik its probably to switch things up in an overdone trope but there is a reason why the eldest usually gets the 'heir to the throne' status. The oldest child rarely ever changes but the youngest always has the possibility to be a middle child.
