Do you think Jeremy might be the one to find some sort of loophole or something to get him and Shuri cleared of all charges during the Holy Trial? Like we’ve seen how far he’s come since that first trial (and other characters have pointed it out as well!) and I’m pretty sure Jeremy had thought like “I’ll just have to find my own way forward, just like my tiny magical mother” or something during his talk with Nora about the necklace Theobald sent. It would make his character come full circle, from needing Shuri to get him out of legal trouble to Jeremy saving them from legal trouble.
hmmm i don't know! but that's a pretty fun possibility! I like the idea of Jeremy's growth showing itself in the form of reliving a similar experience. It totally ties in with the rebirth themes of ASM. I'd love to see Jeremy getting his moment of protecting Shuri in a way he couldn't do before (like Nora and his goal to make Shuri smile).
As of yet, all we know is that the church has ordered a holy trial against Jeremy and Shuri for having alleged incestuous relations. I'm not sure if there are any loopholes for parent/child love affairs... other than Shuri being their known adoptive mother.
I have a sneaking suspicion that Theo will end up involved in this trial somehow, and will make things take a turn for the worse. An affair with the Crown Prince on top of Jeremy and Nora would make Shuri look reaaaalllllly promiscuous. And that might be the Church's 2nd goal.
There was some foreshadowing with Lucas making comments about Shuri's wall of male protectors. Not to mention, he spilled a bunch of information about Shuri during his torture session with the holy knight. I'd assume that Lucas is the reason why the Church got their hands on the rumors in the first place.
Part of me wants Lucas to come back and have Shuri's back in an unexpected show of sibling love that we've seen hints of. And another part of me wants Nora to just swoop in and propose to Shuri during the trial. Everything's still such a big mystery and I have no idea how the trial will go down.
