    Oh I wouldn’t call the succession of the Zent solved yet. Sure the foreign contender is dealt with, but that still leaves the issue of who to give the magic tool Grutrissheit to. Give it to Trauerqual, Siegeswald or another royal or maybe someone not part of the royal family, like Aub Dunkelfelger? Plenty of options for conflic to be sparked off.

    Then there’s the question of whether Gilessenmeyer or the Zent’s wife from there, have to face consequences for Raublut’s deeds. Unfair by our standards, sure, but keep in mind that until Rozemyne muscled in, guilt by association was the norm, be it family or duchy.

    They’ll also have to deal with the survivors of Georgine’s faction and thanks to Mestionora’s declaration, they can’t go with death sentences here, so they’ll have to come up with something else for a whole lot of Werkestock nobles.

    There’s also the issues of how to deal with the Lanzenavian criminals and the Lanzenavians still in their homecountry, who wish to come to Yurgenschmidt.

    Not to mention that there’ll be plenty of nobles, who are either genuinely upset with Ferdinand’s behaviour toward the royal family, or who’ll use that as an excuse to jostle for a better position for themselves.

    There’s also potential for conflict between those that see Rozemyne as divine and others, potentially even leading to her and her followers being accused of treason and/or heresy. Not to mention that there’s very likely going to be people who’ll want to make Rozemyne either Zent or Sov High Bishop.

    So yeah, there are lots of things the last two volumes could be about, other than the existence or absense of gaps in Rozemyne’s memory.
