I'm glad we were able to spend some time this prepub dunking on Fraularm
Certainly true.
Though I have to say, I was very surprised by the implication that Fraularm knew about Gloria's assassination attempt. I can only assume that Bindewald's wife was the pipeline of communications between Georgine and Gloria and then blabbered on to her sister... but that Georgine would allow such a potential leak to ever happen seems a bit uncharacteristic.
Maybe Fraularm, despite her seemingly complete lack of competence, whenever she was on the page, does have some skills in her supposed field of expertise of gathering intelligence after all.
It certainly makes sense now, why she would be that insistent that Rozemyne was dead, after she disappeared, which didn't make sense to me at the time.
Maybe she supplied the poison?
I find that rather unlikely. Why go to the royal academy for the poison, which would then need to be smuggled accross the duchy border into Ehrenfest, when at the time she still had loads of name-sworn and other supporters right there within Ehrenfest? Surely some of them would be able to mix that poison, like for example Grausam, who we know to be a skilled scholar.
