– It is despicable that they are leaving the embrace of Frankia after all this time to pursue autonomy and independence.
– Despite them receiving a golden opportunity to liberate the unfairly enslaved commoners, some of these nobles are selfishly prioritizing their own ambitions and abandoning their noble obligations.
