I guess the people who already called for Eglantine to become Zent, after Rozemyne's accidental graduation blessing, must feel very vindicated right now. And even if they somehow learn it was Rozemyne, not the gods who made that blessing... as the divine avatar, it'd still be kind of from the gods in their eyes anyway.

I am quite surprised to read that Lestilaut is going to marry an Archnoble. I assumed that for someone from a greater duchy - and the successor to the Aub in particular - it'd pretty much par for the course to marry another archduke candidate, at least as their first wife/husband. Then again Lestilaut needs a specific kind of woman, to keep his artistic outbursts under some kind of control, so maybe his parents were afraid, a non-dunkelfelgerian woman might lack the forcefulness and fortitude to keep their son in check. ^^

Wife keeps (Gremlin) Lestilaut in check

Husband keeps (Gremlin) Rozemyne in check

Lestilaut and Roz would be the combination of two unchecked gremlins

Guess Hanelore was right about him not being the guy.

What Hannelore doesn't see is that Ferdinand is just as much of a research gremlin
