Your decision makes some courtiers angry, but still, you are the King.
Or, until few seconds earlier, were.
1104 AD, Midsummer
You are
Yoe II, and you have returned to the throne of the Kingdom of Methiant! Your most honorable and trustworthy brother has passed the throne to you after you were more or less proven to be sane and well again.
The last two years, you remember them as if through fog. The earliest thing you clearly remember is waking up in your cell one summer day, very confused. Let's not think about this embarassing matter too much.
You just receive news that caravan from Eldrican has arrived, bearing Fireblood components in exchange for gemstones. That is good.
1104 AD, Late Summer

Rebellion! Rebellion occurs in the west of Methiant, roughly at the lands of Felonsines. It is some of your own noblemen, disgruntled that Segeda once again meddled in affairs of the state and got you reinstated. They are led by the court members who previously decided that, instead of Segeda having a regency over Cyl, your brother Luath is to rule Methiant.
They have only one postulate really; that your most loyal wife Segeda is to be divorced and sent home after being stripped of all titles and priviledges. Obviously, they won't stop from directly bearing arms against you if you do not comply. They do not have Luath or his family with them; he didn't have time to move out from the royal palace yet, and when the news reached your court, your captain of guard, out of his own initiative, put him and his relatives into house arrest.
"Bastards." Segeda scoffs from above her books after you tell her the news. "I should've known from beginning when they managed to get Luath onto the throne. Traitors, all of them!" You calm your wife down and then meet with the loyal noblemen at your court.
Few of them consider the demand of the rebels, but most go for the obvious action:
"Our Army ought to march forth and crush the rebel scum!" The Advisor brings some scrolls with numbers for you.
"They command little in terms of military
numbers*, and have almost no funds, but they might have loyalty of as much as third of Methiant
subjects* to replenish their ranks if their situation turns so dire." The noblemen clamor for action.
One way or another, the Kingdom is now suffering from a civil war. After much thought, you decide to...
A) Divorce Segeda and send her home to fix the situation before it gets uglier.
B) Personally lead the Army to crush the rebel scum.
C) Send a letter of negotiation, maybe some money or other concessions might appease them.
D) Send the Army to destroy the rebel forces.
