A new day, a new chapter! Hope everyone enjoys chapter 40! I'm currently busy with some irl stuff and my writing speed has been affected these past two weeks. I'll be moving to a new place soon and I hope the situation stabilizes itself soon after that, so I can refocus on writing more, not only the Black Ship but more than that! Cheers and happy day, everyone!
Excited for you, moving is a big deal! We'll patiently wait, no need to rush. We're addicts to your content because it's so good, so dont feel the need to churn out chapters just to give us something to consume. Good luck with everything, and thanks again for the excellent story!
I absolutely love 'The Black Ship' SciFi book/stories and the narrator/s reading it all to us. Since I'm currently on chapter 40 (in three days time)...let us all hope the author plans on 360 more chapters. 🙂 Listen/watch on my 75" Sony 4K flat screen in the living room...a 32" monitor off a desktop computer in my computer room and just recently (today 8-4-2024) off my SE iPhone while mobile in the car. Wish I could be Wyatt Staples !!! I thank you for 'The Black Ship'.
Intuitive yes natural no, Wyatt is not comfortable issuing commands to others, once Redford has worked out a way of getting around this then Wyatt will start climbing the ranks
@@terrywilson1226 Well Wyatt certainly had a natural appeal when he persuaded the original crew of the Noirnavio to change sides and fight the Drazzan, I grant you, but Wyatt is not so good at giving orders, he is however well versed in manipulating nobles, So once he has got the hang of issuing commands in a "you will not question these orders" kind of way he will be set
I think like @terrywilson1226. Being a leader does not mean referring to giving orders. It is to be the person who points the way with his example, with a series of inherent or learned qualities, with his knowledge, his way of relating to others; his ability to manage crises and make decisions, understand the members of a group and support, in short, guide.
@@dantepoggini7752 As a noble Wyatt can give suggestions, in fact he does that here as he cannot order those who are both superior in naval rank and nobility (they are lords he is only a knight, all be it an important one. However as he is also a Naval officer he has to learn how to command, as an example, he may have to order men to cover a retreat probably at the cost of their own lives, or to lead an attack in order to cripple an enemies shields, you cannot simply suggest that someone might like to go sacrifice their lives in order that you can do something else, you have to order and know that you will be obeyed, especially since you may not have time to explain to others why you are giving the order. Note a good officer does not willingly sacrifice his men, but they do accept that sometimes they will be sending at least some of those men to their deaths. This is one reason why in many military services the commander who sends or leads those men to their deaths is the one who writes to their relatives to tell them how they died assuming they themselves survived
Wyatt Returns!! I love that Wyatt was allowed to reveal Clara’s potential intention putting to doubt the opinions and reasoning of the Sr. Officer’s and nobles. Surely, in the future they will be learning to give Wyatt at least wary respect. He got to put the nobles in their place by suggesting the discerning of Clara’s intention as a test of THEIR loyalty. I so appreciate how your stories anticipate and point forward to future plot elements. Thank you! How very entertaining!
My experience is being right or good doesn't cause respect to happen. You have to smash someone else to get respect if it is them they will be only an enemy and very begrudging. The Author is very good at knowing (portraying) these things
What are you talking about? Galt Tirom's redemption arc started already before Book 2 even started. It started when he wanted to help fight the Drazin. Then he spoke up in Wyatt's defense in the sham trial. He asked Clara what would happen to Wyatt and showed more concern about that young man's life than his own. Then he took Clara's offer and swore loyalty to her. He in this book helped Wyatt with his panic attack and how to deal with the root issue of them. So yeah, Galt's redemption arc has started while ago and is doing great so far! 😊
@davidorf3921 There maybe another hidden plan/reason of Clara wanting Galt in charge of the pirate children. It might because he is an example of how acepting Clara's mercy/deal can be beneficial for you. 😊

You've done it now Wyatt. Senior officers don't take kindly to being out maneuvered by junior officers and enlisted personnel. Only the true leaders are willing to listen to the right solution no matter where it comes from.
Actually they are going to be very grateful, Wyatt gave them an out, firstly you have to bear in mind that none save Redford and to a lesser extent Galt really have any idea what to make of Wyatt but he appears as far as they are concerned to have a lot of influence with Clara, that can be positive or negative as far as they are concerned, then you have to see the Pirates from the officers point of view, none of them want pirates in their own departments but they are under orders from the Princess to make a workable solution, none including Wyatt know the real reason Clara wants these pirates to be saved so Wyatt has given them something they can understand, he's told them "maybe it's not about the pirates it's about YOU" And because of the way nobility seems to work they have all (apart from Redford and Galt) gone ah, Clara is testing our loyalty and competence, perhaps with his proximity to the Princess this young Lieutenant has heard things and is letting us know. So now they will willingly cooperate because it is not about the pirates it os about their standing and they won't hate Wyatt for out manoeuvring them instead they appreciate the warning and will do their best as a result to accomplish their tasks. Because by doing so they may get a royal commendation for their efforts as opposed to the opposite .... Oh and he has also given them a workable solution they can live with, it requires far less effort on their part to appoint a few of their juniors to look after a bunch of pirate kids in a barracks than it would have to try and integrate those kids within their own established orders. Win win they accomplish Claras orders and keep them away from the majority of their own people. Meanwhile Redford has seen Wyatts actions and realised that he has outsmarted his bridge officers without any of them realising, Wyatt works on instinct, he has a commoners understanding of how nobility works to he has played to their fears (Clara is testing THEM, notice he said us, thereby including himself in the test) and he doesn't order them to find a solution but instead offers them a workable scheme that they can adapt so that each can show Clara how helpful they have been thereby ensuring that they will each earn some praise ..... I am so looking forward to seeing how Redford adapts his instruction for Wyatt after this

Wonderful chapter. Very interesting to see how command of the Noirnavio interacts. I hope next chapter comes soon . It does sound like a very interesting chapter 41 .
Well Redford is one of very few who know that it was Wyatt who commanded the Noirnavio when it thrashed the Drazzan so he knows Wyatt has the potential to replace him and probably exceed his own ability if he can just find a way of turning Wyatt into an officer who can issue orders that will be obeyed

I am new to this stuff and not sure how it made it's way into my feed. With that said, I'm very happy with the story. Thank you for what you do. Great work
Glad I have today off to be able to listen to this 2 hours earlier than normal work day 😊. Good, we get to see a staff meeting of the Noirnavio for the first time. Its hilarious how Redford adress his comanders anger at Clara's agreement with the pirate children. Its nice seeing how Wyatt's understanding of noble shenanigans compared to the beginning of the series. 😊 Nice seeing Wyatt struggling to shake off commoner education and act like a noble. I do like how Wyatt regrets his knee jersey reaction to destroy the pirate ship that ended up having some innocent babies and young children. Its interesting seeing Wyatt becoming better talking with nobles as the meeting progressed. Intriguing idea Wyatt has to segregate the pirate children who take Clara's offer so they can properly be reeducated. Interesting twist seeing how Wyatt figured a good idea on how to motivated the pirate children to change their ways. That would be a crazy but very possible idea that Wyatt has that Clara is testing her commander leadership of the Noirnavio. I do like how Redford wants to test Wyatt in this meeting as part of making him a better officer. It's hilarious how Wyatt and Galt realize what Clara's plan was basically what Wyatt thought of 😂😂. Interesting seeing how Clara intends making the older pirate children their own group. It was hilarious when Wyatt heard this possible idea and became afraid that he would be the one stuck commanding them 😂! I do love how Redford is once again annoyed by Wyatt's paradoxical nature and how it's been overall beneficial for him! I do like how Redford explained to Wyatt how he is paradoxical and what the word means by the example given. Glad that Redford understands fully Wyatt's thought process, so he can properly train Wyatt as a officer. 😊
I’m seeing Wyatt becoming a Nexus for Clara- in that Wyatt being a role models to get or Motivate the Nobles & Commoners back to the Lost Core Values of Principality. By training them & showing them the value of thinking & Acting in an Unconventional Ways & Means, while Leading through example, the value all have both Nobility & Commoners- Nobility Guides for the Better of All the Principality. Plus By learning to think Unconventionally- will gives them an Edge against Duke Draemore’s forces which only knows how to operate in a Conventional Mode- Ridged., which also would potentially offer a means to mitigate collateral damages & loss of life on Both sides. I anticipated this chapter would be related to Wyatt & Redford in a Higher Command Level training that Wyatt lacks, since his academy training was only Commoner Level, and not the level given to the Nobility.
Wyatt has an understanding of what appears to be a majority of the nobilities mind sets and it's not that different to the commoners, do well at tasks assigned to them and do not screw up enough to get punished, his skill here was in making the task of looking after the Pirate Kids into the task of proving that the Nobles were being tested, also he threw himself into those being tested, i.e it's not about the kids it's about how well WE accomplish the task, note he doesn't give his seniors orders but instead asks if they could do something and leaves it up to them as how they can accomplish the tasks that they themselves are suddenly far more eager to take on, I think this is what Redford sees here
@@davidorf3921I think the key was given to us in the last chapters- 38 & 39, Clara is all about 2nd Chances, her own Harsh Executions of 3x Noble House & 18 Minor houses… As a LEO (Me)- My Mentor taught me “There is no such thing as a Bad Kid, Just misguided..” Clara is looking at how she can redeem even a few of the Pirates, because with the future Traitors will also deserve a 2nd chance, verses just cleansing the houses, as a means to rebuilding the core of the principality….
@@davidorf3921Also- Gault being placed in charge of the Pirate Conscripts makes more sense then Wyatt, since Gault being a Noble who was part of a Treacherous Crew was spared Death, along with his fellow crewmen to prove the Princess’ words of 2nd chances, even though is was Wyatt that went against Clara’s orders in the first place, but has proven useful & sound since…
@@daghost11 Wyatt is .... special, he has an instinctive sixth sense that tells him when to speak and what to say. Fortunately Clara has good sense enough to understand when Wyatt disobeys her it's for the right reasons and she listens. otherwise Wyatt would have already been thrown out the airlock or beheaded by Cynthia
The real chapter 40 is here! Yay!. Very well done, and thanks. Good luck with the move, those are not fun. Looks like Galt is in for some interesting times. And then there's Wyatt...😄 1. I really want to see the result of Redford's epiphany about how to train Wyatt, 2. For Clara to urgently summon Wyatt without putting Redford on the link is ominous. Is the Prince in trouble? Is Wyatt about to start his career as a lone wolf? I guess we tune in next week, same Bat-time, same Bat-station!.
for a moment I thought Wyatt was going to get command of the pirate unit but I just realised he still has to sort out his squadron and make them the best. then sort The rest of the fighter force. Wyatt probably won't yet command marines until milkades is happy with his skills but more likely he may infiltrate the enemy , then again He is getting more well known so that may not be possible.

Great story certification 101: When ye start listing to a ±30 min episode and instantly assume CZcams messed up and skipped to the end when the episode is over only to realise it actually is ±30 min later already. Wonder how many coffee's it would take for the author to just keep writing the story for like 15 hours a day so we can have a new chapter every day 🙈
I'm going to say that Clara, while being a Princess, has never really learned how to care for babies! And to keep the truth about those two that were chosen a secret, she's got them in her quarters.
This is getting interesting, wat is going to happen on the political front ?Is there going to be more space fighter battles and more black ships comondered, is Wyatt going to make an impresion with his squadron? Wat is going to happen with Wyatts family? Is there giong to be some twists in the story where royal family is in danger where they have to trUst Wyatt even if it seem he is maybe defecting to saves royals? And is he going to get more involved with Cynthia through his traning or with Clara even in a freindly way?? The posabilities are endless this many options .I cant wait to find out.......... HOPING THERE ARE MANY MORE EPISODES
I would love to see how Duke Draymore came to lead a coup. I've been wondering ever since the first time we saw him what would make him turn against family. But I suppose that the basics of motivation don't change much, even that far into the future.

If I heard that right Wyatt is Redford’s second in command, even though Clara is the Captain. This means that now noble Lieutenant Wyatt Staples is in line for command if Redford is ever incapacitated. Well done Redford, well done.
I have thought the same but not at the expense of quality. Really hooked on this story and the community's comments add to the intrigue of which direction the story will be taking.
If as I suspect Wyatt ends up with a significant increase in nobility at the end of this "Dispute" due to being appointed as a replacement for a traitors house then I could well see Galt swearing his house to support Wyatt's I could also see Leopold ending up as the equivalent of Wyatts squire or even a household knight, a suitable reward for his loyalty perhaps ?
@@davidorf3921 The looks of the war room causes me to think Clara may be building her own house. 1. She is an Astor but if she marries ( probably Wyatt) she will be in another house. 2. After this shakes out there will be many new houses and territories from the remains. 3. She intends to wage this war in a different fashion than her brother using the Noirnavio as intended not by the rules her brother would follow 4. The new house will have a much different relationship between nobles and commoners and other nobles 5. Redford is in on this and Wyatt is the key part. I don't know where Cynthia is on this probably undecided
@@ArthurBuchanan-vf7kx 1. Agreed however if she were to Marry Wyatt then house Staples is likely to replace one of the traitor houses Cayston possibly 2. Oh yes, 3. Agreed, 4 I think so tp, or to be more precise I think it will offer commoners greater opportunities 5. Maybe but Cynthia will go with whatever Clara says, she is fiercely loyal to her friend

It is amazing how fast 30 mins go by, at 1 g acceleration that would be 10 miles/sec 0.0007% c (speed of light). Looks like Gault is being tested and starting his climb back to the higher ranks. Wyatt has got to learn to command and develop the leadership of his squad then expand the control over the fighters. I think that will start happening. Who do you think will be the first Composter to get their own Squad? Why?
I have no idea,but I'm not sure we know enough about Gregor or Raquel yet to make that judgement, however from what we do know right now Leopold is not a leader and Nultar is too reckless, if I had to make a choice it would probably be Gregor if you could put him in charge of a squad of interceptors (maybe)
I have been thinking, remember Clara traded the pirates for two babies? This might sound a little strange/crazy but couldn’t Wyatt have been a taken or bargained infant and now is fulfilling his duties, both serving the principality, the Prince and the Princess also the house of Aster. Wouldn’t that make sense to the ability and remarkable things that he is achieving.
A new day, a new chapter! Hope everyone enjoys chapter 40! I'm currently busy with some irl stuff and my writing speed has been affected these past two weeks.

idk why but this always puts me in a good mood
👏👏👏👏👏
Another amazing and thought-provoking chapter ❗
I am new to this stuff and not sure how it made it's way into my feed. With that said, I'm very happy with the story. Thank you for what you do. Great work
very well written and told , i look forward t the next chapter well done :)
Thank you for the new chapter
I have been waiting for this, keep them coming
Glad I have today off to be able to listen to this 2 hours earlier than normal work day 😊. Good, we get to see a staff meeting of the Noirnavio for the first time. Its hilarious how Redford adress his comanders anger at Clara's agreement with the pirate children.
Its nice seeing how Wyatt's understanding of noble shenanigans compared to the beginning of the series. 😊 Nice seeing Wyatt struggling to shake off commoner education and act like a noble.
I do like how Wyatt regrets his knee jersey reaction to destroy the pirate ship that ended up having some innocent babies and young children. Its interesting seeing Wyatt becoming better talking with nobles as the meeting progressed.
Intriguing idea Wyatt has to segregate the pirate children who take Clara's offer so they can properly be reeducated. Interesting twist seeing how Wyatt figured a good idea on how to motivated the pirate children to change their ways.
That would be a crazy but very possible idea that Wyatt has that Clara is testing her commander leadership of the Noirnavio. I do like how Redford wants to test Wyatt in this meeting as part of making him a better officer. It's hilarious how Wyatt and Galt realize what Clara's plan was basically what Wyatt thought of 😂😂.
Interesting seeing how Clara intends making the older pirate children their own group. It was hilarious when Wyatt heard this possible idea and became afraid that he would be the one stuck commanding them 😂!
I do love how Redford is once again annoyed by Wyatt's paradoxical nature and how it's been overall beneficial for him! I do like how Redford explained to Wyatt how he is paradoxical and what the word means by the example given. Glad that Redford understands fully Wyatt's thought process, so he can properly train Wyatt as a officer. 😊
I’m seeing Wyatt becoming a Nexus for Clara- in that Wyatt being a role models to get or Motivate the Nobles & Commoners back to the Lost Core Values of Principality. By training them & showing them the value of thinking & Acting in an Unconventional Ways & Means, while Leading through example, the value all have both Nobility & Commoners- Nobility Guides for the Better of All the Principality. Plus By learning to think Unconventionally- will gives them an Edge against Duke Draemore’s forces which only knows how to operate in a Conventional Mode- Ridged., which also would potentially offer a means to mitigate collateral damages & loss of life on Both sides.
I anticipated this chapter would be related to Wyatt & Redford in a Higher Command Level training that Wyatt lacks, since his academy training was only Commoner Level, and not the level given to the Nobility.
Wyatt has an understanding of what appears to be a majority of the nobilities mind sets and it's not that different to the commoners, do well at tasks assigned to them and do not screw up enough to get punished, his skill here was in making the task of looking after the Pirate Kids into the task of proving that the Nobles were being tested, also he threw himself into those being tested, i.e it's not about the kids it's about how well WE accomplish the task, note he doesn't give his seniors orders but instead asks if they could do something and leaves it up to them as how they can accomplish the tasks that they themselves are suddenly far more eager to take on, I think this is what Redford sees here
@@davidorf3921I think the key was given to us in the last chapters- 38 & 39, Clara is all about 2nd Chances, her own Harsh Executions of 3x Noble House & 18 Minor houses… As a LEO (Me)- My Mentor taught me “There is no such thing as a Bad Kid, Just misguided..” Clara is looking at how she can redeem even a few of the Pirates, because with the future Traitors will also deserve a 2nd chance, verses just cleansing the houses, as a means to rebuilding the core of the principality….
@@davidorf3921Also- Gault being placed in charge of the Pirate Conscripts makes more sense then Wyatt, since Gault being a Noble who was part of a Treacherous Crew was spared Death, along with his fellow crewmen to prove the Princess’ words of 2nd chances, even though is was Wyatt that went against Clara’s orders in the first place, but has proven useful & sound since…
@@daghost11 Wyatt is .... special, he has an instinctive sixth sense that tells him when to speak and what to say. Fortunately Clara has good sense enough to understand when Wyatt disobeys her it's for the right reasons and she listens. otherwise Wyatt would have already been thrown out the airlock or beheaded by Cynthia
The real chapter 40 is here! Yay!. Very well done, and thanks. Good luck with the move, those are not fun.
Looks like Galt is in for some interesting times. And then there's Wyatt...😄
1. I really want to see the result of Redford's epiphany about how to train Wyatt,
2. For Clara to urgently summon Wyatt without putting Redford on the link is ominous. Is the Prince in trouble? Is Wyatt about to start his career as a lone wolf?
I guess we tune in next week, same Bat-time, same Bat-station!.
Outstanding!
Great job and good luck 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍👍⭐️⭐️👍
Needed something positive after this weekend
Such a fantastic series!
Best audiostory on the eatherwebs!
greatly enjoyed the meeting and can't wait to see what happens next
for a moment I thought Wyatt was going to get command of the pirate unit but I just realised he still has to sort out his squadron and make them the best. then sort The rest of the fighter force. Wyatt probably won't yet command marines until milkades is happy with his skills but more likely he may infiltrate the enemy , then again He is getting more well known so that may not be possible.
Yes such a good day when a new chapter of the black ship comes out
A 99.9% and The Black Ship on the same day? This is a good day.
Hmmm… what do you suppose the emergency is? You know what? I have no idea.
Cynthia can’t Knit 😅😅
Clara’s not sure how to make a particular knitting knot 😅😅
The Pastry chef has made too many cakes and they need a glutton
I'm so happy to hear this. I have been feeling some pressure and this is just what was needed. Thanks
Excellent!
i enjoy your work.
This has a feel of a Friday 13th night of long knives,in a foreseeable future.
Now that’s the kind of Monday I like
The Black Ship is so darn good! I can't wait for the next chapter. Thx.
I got the chapter from the Author earlier today. It's out later today at 9pm UK / 1pm Pacific time.

Thank you so much! ❤love this book!
Awesome way to start the week, & a helluva intriguing chapter, what on earth is going thru Redfords mind i wonder, what's he got in store for Wyatt?.
Another one! rejoice!
3 mins and I'm listening
i love this book more ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome! 👍👍
Thank you!
Man im glad i have something to listen to again.🙂
Great story certification 101: When ye start listing to a ±30 min episode and instantly assume CZcams messed up and skipped to the end when the episode is over only to realise it actually is ±30 min later already. Wonder how many coffee's it would take for the author to just keep writing the story for like 15 hours a day so we can have a new chapter every day 🙈
I'm going to say that Clara, while being a Princess, has never really learned how to care for babies! And to keep the truth about those two that were chosen a secret, she's got them in her quarters.
And they need a change of diapers so she summons poor Wyatt 😂😂😅
This is getting interesting, wat is going to happen on the political front ?Is there going to be more space fighter battles and more black ships comondered, is Wyatt going to make an impresion with his squadron? Wat is going to happen with Wyatts family? Is there giong to be some twists in the story where royal family is in danger where they have to trUst Wyatt even if it seem he is maybe defecting to saves royals? And is he going to get more involved with Cynthia through his traning or with Clara even in a freindly way?? The posabilities are endless this many options .I cant wait to find out.......... HOPING THERE ARE MANY MORE EPISODES
Coming back to this comment section after wondering what had Clara panicked. The only thing I can think of is her having to change diapers
I would love to see how Duke Draymore came to lead a coup. I've been wondering ever since the first time we saw him what would make him turn against family. But I suppose that the basics of motivation don't change much, even that far into the future.

Galt is becoming more trusted every day. Will he end up in charge when the Cayston's are removed?
I was just thinking earlier today when the next chapter is going to apear. The wait is over .... at least for this week.
❤ This Series❗👍
Yes!
Nice
If I heard that right Wyatt is Redford’s second in command, even though Clara is the Captain. This means that now noble Lieutenant Wyatt Staples is in line for command if Redford is ever incapacitated. Well done Redford, well done.
This series gets better with each chapter. I only wish each chapter could drop more often.
I have thought the same but not at the expense of quality. Really hooked on this story and the community's comments add to the intrigue of which direction the story will be taking.
I just wish I would have found it after it was completed. I would spend 40 hours listening to the whole story from start to finish.
I hope Galt gets to join the new house Staples, as a banner holder? If I understand it correctly. I want to see more of him in the story.
More likely, he will become the new head of his house 🏠 that joining house Staples . 😊
If as I suspect Wyatt ends up with a significant increase in nobility at the end of this "Dispute" due to being appointed as a replacement for a traitors house then I could well see Galt swearing his house to support Wyatt's I could also see Leopold ending up as the equivalent of Wyatts squire or even a household knight, a suitable reward for his loyalty perhaps ?
@@davidorf3921 The looks of the war room causes me to think Clara may be building her own house.
1. She is an Astor but if she marries ( probably Wyatt) she will be in another house.
2. After this shakes out there will be many new houses and territories from the remains.
3. She intends to wage this war in a different fashion than her brother using the Noirnavio as intended not by the rules her brother would follow
4. The new house will have a much different relationship between nobles and commoners and other nobles
5. Redford is in on this and Wyatt is the key part. I don't know where Cynthia is on this probably undecided
@@ArthurBuchanan-vf7kx 1. Agreed however if she were to Marry Wyatt then house Staples is likely to replace one of the traitor houses Cayston possibly 2. Oh yes, 3. Agreed, 4 I think so tp, or to be more precise I think it will offer commoners greater opportunities 5. Maybe but Cynthia will go with whatever Clara says, she is fiercely loyal to her friend
Finally
Heck Yea...
hay man you inspired me to right my none story. I truly love your caritorors. and the compelling motives and dilemmas of all of the characters. thank you. I wish you well with your life and with the move.

Wohoo🎉🎉
🎉
I like this story line!
thank you starting to go in to with drawles...lol
It is amazing how fast 30 mins go by, at 1 g acceleration that would be 10 miles/sec 0.0007% c (speed of light). Looks like Gault is being tested and starting his climb back to the higher ranks. Wyatt has got to learn to command and develop the leadership of his squad then expand the control over the fighters. I think that will start happening. Who do you think will be the first Composter to get their own Squad? Why?
My pick Nultar of disgraced House Okara
Leopold the commoner and excellent wingman
Raquel Otila the new female pilot that want the most kills
Gregor Undaj the best dogfighter
I have no idea,but I'm not sure we know enough about Gregor or Raquel yet to make that judgement, however from what we do know right now Leopold is not a leader and Nultar is too reckless, if I had to make a choice it would probably be Gregor if you could put him in charge of a squad of interceptors (maybe)
I have been thinking, remember Clara traded the pirates for two babies? This might sound a little strange/crazy but couldn’t Wyatt have been a taken or bargained infant and now is fulfilling his duties, both serving the principality, the Prince and the Princess also the house of Aster. Wouldn’t that make sense to the ability and remarkable things that he is achieving.
