NORTHERN ROAD
We continue our trek north.
When we camp, near midnight Bale gets a Sending from his father. The King is dead, and the line of succession is under discussion, he is warned not to come home.
Succession claims can be done by any royal member of Legal age, and able to hold a throne (Male, not resurrected). This means the Crown Prince, the Crown Duke, Second Prince Morys and Prince Gilbert … and Able are all eligible to claim the throne. But they have to make the claim tomorrow.
Able refuses to do this, so we spend the evening in uneasy rest.
