Alright, I'm calling bullshit on that. You are aware of the abuse, acknowledge it's abuse and it's wrong, then blame the victim anyway? There is no way the sister would logically act like this from what we know.
It starts out fine than turns into a shitstorm of horrible writing, overdone cliches, and unresolved plot threads. It's been a while since I've felt my time so wasted.
@SummerK This would be correct if being high up on the military ladder had anything to do with being a soldier rather than an outlet to gain prestige for nobles. These guys are pretty clearly not the perfect representation of the ideal soldier, but they would be the norm for the setting and plot.
