Wow, look at her face, he didn't hit her that hard. Yes, he did. Brennan is close enough that he might have needed to catch her as she was knocked off the horse.
Bridnea is very rough with his wife. So were a lot of Medieval folks. So are a lot of modern folks. It was expected in certain cultures (here's a nice stick to beat the lovely lady with) and in certain places it still is. It was a contracted marriage for politics and an heir. Very important to have a few sons sooner rather than later. Bridnea's dad had children late and a minority was only barely avoided. But then Bridnea IV was impatient and precocious and helped his father's illness a long.
Lord Zhau is only concerned with his treaty or is he? That's to be determined. This thread will intersect with Aleeka. And Bridnea needs an army.
This page goes live a day early because I forgot to set the date. Enjoy.
Wow!! Harsh as this moment is, it still feels real!! My modern sensibilities still make me loathe this guy and want to see him 'get it' eventually!! Ya know, though, with so many powerful women in this world (magic and all that) I'd probably be careful how I treated them... just sayin' ;)
I'm sure that a lot of Medieval marriages were like this, though if her parents are powerful (which I assume they are), this could come back to bite him some day if they were to discover how their daughter is being treated.
It got lost in the pictures but Bridnea's wife dropped the reins of her horse which were picked up by Zhau which is why Bridnea asks him to take her back to the castle.

Royal wives are to be submissive. Remember what happened to Glorianna.

She's a royal wife, most will dismiss it as a necessary evil.

Bridnea is an ass. somebody poison his food or stick a knife in him.

Maybe he'll start a ladies wrestling league instead.
