Okay. Since we're going down this path…
Granville… yeah, he needs to stay retired. A Grump Sidhe like him is not all that useful in the current enviroment, so let's just send him to a holiday cabin in Bermuda or Florida.
Duchess Eloyse? I actually just think she drew in Eiluned with some sweet words, and realized they decided to betray her again, thus she took it upon herself to whack René. The whole, "send-vampires-as-hitmen"-thing?
That's not a new thing of Beaumayn. Just be glad you are on better terms with the werewolves than Eloyse is.
But, do recall that the Darkstars of Beaumayn are pretty… prophetic. And there might be a few things to this gambit that we haven't seen yet.
Claude? I don't fucking know. Maybe he patched David up after a fight? Maybe Claude stabbed the right monster? It could be countless things, and Braum should actually know it now that he got his memories back.
I'm pretty sure we're in court politics now. In a harsh, unforgiving world, where Seelie fight Seelie.
Meilge's cronies… might be posing as him, to continue the plan, now that Meilge is dead. I know that what I'd do if I lost a central figurehead.
At least we're not at all out war… please tell me that Jon is not referencing War in Concordia nowadays…
If you're going towards the Chicago angle? That's House Dougal territory, and an unknown factor in the current power struggle, and even worse, it might be an ally that you haven't secured.
And Meilge really didn't need to remove David from power. Not in my perspective at least. He already had control of the King. Now that Meilge is dead? Yeah, there might be another attempt at Ardry's life…
Oh crap.
That's exactly what's going to happen when the Motley visits. I'm certain of it…
In other news…
Sophia might need allies, and the Crystal Circle is not the worst place to seek them. Although, you need an in with them. Could Braum introduce you to them? The Circle *are* known as close allies of the Red Branch.
Although, the whole Liam thing might work against you there… here's an idea, marry into another House! :-p
Also… IF you want to do the whole, redeem a Dauntain with the journey to Arcadia? The Circle would be the place to start looking.
Speaking of Dauntain.
I fucked up. I forgot to check up on the Unbroken Circle when Padraig said he was a member.
That's a big fucking deal.
The Unbroken Circle are knights, charged by High King David to hunt down Dauntain and either kill them or rescue them from their madness.
