For me it went harder than expected. I did expect Rozemyne to become very direct to the point that old-school nobles would be offended, but I did not expect her to outright threaten them. But I expected it even less, that this was all a setup by Florencia (or rather her retainers) to manouver the Leisegangs elders into committing a crime, so they can throw them in prison and be rid of their meddling. Now we know, where Hartmut got his ruthless and cunning side from. ^^
But I think overall, this intervention by the children is more benefitial to Ehrenfest in the long run, than Leberecht's plan would have been.
She went too soft on them, IMO. I wanted her to lash out and even crush them for opposing the gods' divine wills for their petty power play.
Oh, well 🤷
Yeah, it was just a short interaction - they seem to have backed down within minutes of the kids arriving.
