Thank you Julius! Finally somebody having a normal introduction of the info to their Candidate of the fact they are a Candidate. Reinhard went all “weeeeeee, lemme Regulus this girl”, Roswaal well. Was Roswaal in how he introduced the idea to Emilia.
And then Crusch deadass learned it during the funeral of her arguably most cherished person’s relatives after resentfully realizing said cherished person was a footnote to everybody around her at this funeral. Aaaaand I doubt Priscilla’s introduction to the idea of Candidacy was any better either since I’m like. 99% certain in stuff I’ve expressed in Ex 2 + Crusch’s Camp Formation Story that Lyp married Priscilla aware she was a Candidate in advance and wanted to use her as a way to control the Kingdom.
