Chương 217: Lucille's Visitor

"By my divine right as the sovereign ruler of the Vraven Kingdom, guardian of its lands and people, I, Alexios Valorian, denounce Edmund Valehart as a traitor to the crown. For the crimes of greed, negligence, and treason, I sentence him to death, along with the direct generation of his blood above and below him on the Valehart family tree."

His harsh sentencing isn't over just yet. "Furthermore, every other living member of the Valehart family shall be thoroughly investigated. Should any be found guilty of complicity or betrayal, they will face the same fate. If they are deemed innocent, they will forfeit all noble privileges, titles, wealth and lands. Their legacy will be stripped from them, and they will live as commoners, bereft of honor and status."
