might we hear more about the crowsbane au Blz ??
Karl killed Miranda in a fit of brotherly inspired passion and he Almost Died doing it
His army of soldats went up against the lycans, as planned, and it was a massacre. Both for the armies and the unfortunate village left between.
In the end Karl very fucking tiredly was basically "Miranda’s dead, fuck all of you" and the villagers kind of just made him the Main Dude even tho he was holed up unconscious in his factory for a while recovering hhdhfjd
Karl is a little meh on the actually being a leader thing, he mostly just supervises and lays down a few laws. He randomly declared one of the survivors a Mayor to keep the village running smoothly during rebuilding. It was Luiza, and she's doing a great job actually
The other Lords are... very conflicted on things, actually, and the only reason they haven't confronted Karl is sheer fear. Karl broke a few barriers while fighting Miranda out of sheer desperation and he paid for it later, but he is Exceedingly More Powerful than he already was.
Also, in this AU? After Miranda died? Who better to be the new host for the megamycete than the one who killed the previous host?
