Kapitel 126: Pests

It was truly rather strange when Albaer had left while Alier and the former Duke weren't present in the Dukedom, everyone had thought that problems and complications were bound to emerge by the void left by the capable men of the White Family. 

This was a common conception at that time as there was no one left in the Duchy who could take charge of everything. There were capable officials and followers of the White Family but they obviously needed a higher authority above them from the white family as they could not simply govern the Duchy on behalf of the family. 

Considering this, Alier was dead, Albaer had left abruptly and the former Duke was in the capital—only Aisha and the children were left in Adenberd and no one had faith that it was enough for things to go on smoothly. 

However, the chaos and the administrative troubles that people expected never came. It was as if nothing had happened and the Duke was still in the territory as always.
