As to your comment (which I did read before the installments), I didn't find it to be too heavy of an info dump. I thought it stayed well within the confines and expectations of the conversation, and it's helped to fill in some minor gaps.
I'm a tad suspicious of Casten and Jeth being so closely related and improbably finding each other, but magic I guess. The biggest reason I'm suspicious of this is that you make it sound like the Elves are kind of the main population, the majority of the world while the others (Centaurs, Erruns, etc.) are more in the minority living in their own places on the outskirts of wherever. Or maybe the Elves are just a really powerful minority that has been able to hold power because of magic. With the magic dwindling, the others are coming in to fight for the scraps.
As for the answering of the questions, what I'm getting out of this is that the only reason Poppa Henry is still a thing in Penthya is because the Elves have a stupid long lifespan, and they've been around since the death of the king and have kept that grudge alive for six hundred years because they were contemporaries for the event. Or at least their parents were contemporaries. And my understanding is that they believe (whether true or not) that if they execute Henry, the five thrones will be restored?
I also feel like Sara is somehow going to be the main antagonist here, and this whole thing is a convoluted revenge plot because Mommy botched up the magic and Daddy went after Steven and not her.
From what I've also gathered, the Seal was what kept the Force in balance and the thrones happy, but Isabella botched her Last Breath and redirected the Seal to Henry and her children specifically, thus breaking the thrones and linking the efficacy of the Seal to his life. He dies, Dark Side of the Force takes over, thrones are...more broken?
Commenting for both the last post and this one.
