After the exhibition, news of King Harland's return dominated headlines worldwide. At the same time, stories of Lory's past deeds resurfaced across countless outlets. Before long, a fiery debate erupted online and off, pitting comparisons of the Saintess against Princess Lorient.
"I don't care what anyone says, Princess Lorient will always be the best for me."
"Same here. I mean, put the Saintess in Lorient's situation and see how she reacts."
"Hold on, that's not fair. Don't forget, Princess Lorient had the Divine Beast Girsha guarding her."
"And the Saintess had Salvo De Rova and the Paladins protecting her, but I've never seen her lift a sword at all."
"Well, Princess Lorient was trained for battle."
"She's a princess! She didn't need to fight on the front lines, but she chose to, and she saved so many people—including me and my family!"
