We did nothing wrong! [The answer is immediate, and even a little hot. Even if the Chalphys truly had wronged their rivals in Grannvale, stolen or slandered or committed an injury on them, it wouldn't justify resurrecting the darkness that had gripped Jugdral for so many centuries--and betraying everything their own ancestors had worked for.] It was envy. Pure envy. Our crown prince turned to my father for advice and solace during--a terrible time in his life. My father gave it freely, expecting no favor in return, but naturally the prince came to see him as a friend.

My father had no thought of making the other houses his enemy through his kindness.

[And that's just in Grannvale. Verdane, Agustria... neither of ,i>them had any good reason for declaring war either. It was they who were the provocators, not Grannvale, and certainly not her family.]
