"There, we have a much greater freedom concerning situations like this." Elena started to explain to him. "In fact, the Stone Island royal family does not exert a power of control over the noble families of that region as it does here on the mainland."
"While the royal families generally rule by suzerainty on the mainland, it is something more autonomous on Stone Island."
"They govern our territory as a city mayor would do in their territory. The zones and public roads are governed by the rules of the city, while on private property, as long as it is not something too extreme, what counts is the rule of the owner of that place."
"And the royal family in our state acts that way. As long as the noble organizations pay their taxes, don't rebel, and follow some of the few laws of the royal family, then each noble family has plenty of freedom to act within their territories."
