The Archduke Conference has come to an end, but Ehrenfest’s archducal family is still reeling from the troubles it brought. Rozemyne has one year before she must depart for the Sovereignty, and those in her service have an important choice to make.
For me it went harder than expected. I did expect Rozemyne to become very direct to the point that old-school nobles would be offended, but I did not expect her to outright threaten them. But I expected it even less, that this was all a setup by Florencia (or rather her retainers) to manouver the Leisegangs elders into committing a crime, so they can throw them in prison and be rid of their meddling.
Now we know, where Hartmut got his ruthless and cunning side from. ^^
But I think overall, this intervention by the children is more benefitial to Ehrenfest in the long run, than Leberecht’s plan would have been.

Yeah, it was just a short interaction - they seem to have backed down within minutes of the kids arriving.
She went too soft on them, IMO. I wanted her to lash out and even crush them for opposing the gods’ divine wills for their petty power play.
Oh, well 🤷
