Maria Campbell of the Astral Clocktower has updated again.
In which Maria thinks the following about Katarina Claes:-
Yes, someone like Lady Claes would not doubt have had the foresight to make preparations for all eventualities. She had to wonder what orders the others had received, what unknowable tasks they had been assigned in the event of their mistress's incapacitation. Were there even now machinations turning to extract vengeance on some suspected party, or even just some fool who the Lady Claes did not wish to outlive her? Once more she can only marvel at the cunning and intelligence of the woman, obscured as it usually was by her hedonistic image of insatiable lust.
The worrying thing is, in some Otome settings, she might well be right.I'm amazed the denseness of the two isn't causing gravitational anomalies.
