All of what Jude’s done is to ensure that when her little brother Oak, the rightful heir, is old enough to survive being king, there will be a throne to sit on. Not that that keeps him from pushing her buttons and boundaries at every turn. Jude isn’t one of these people trying to get the throne, mainly because she secretly holds power through a oath struck with Cardan where he must obey her for a year and a day. He rules like he lives, carefree and blind to any consequences. And, also because Cardan is a unusually bad king. There are a number of major players vying for the throne King Cardan currently occupies, mainly because power is addictive and everyone wants some. I didn’t think things could grow more complicated than when we left them in Cruel Prince, but here we are.
