GRIFFITHS POV
"I suggest we instead select a leader from the next best option," Duke Tremsley continued. "The kingdom has four founding families including the royal family and so the next ruler can be chosen from the three of you. You Duke Griffith, Commander Aldric and Duke Isaac," he said as he pointed to us.
King Edgar the first king united the three strongest families in the region together with your three families so the next ruler could come from the three of you. You have many more supporters and factions. The people all view you positively and believe you are responsible for the defeat of the former King.
The room once again erupted in noise with the council members discussing their opinions amongst each other. "Yes, that's a much better option." What if the princess retaliates?" "What power does she have to refuse?" "I prefer Aldric" "I think it should be Duke Griffith."
