Laon's issue is also a very complex political problem.
Because in the chaos of Mathew Bade, the duke now finds himself in a very awkward position.
If Laon is deemed to have no responsibility for the current situation, it wouldn't convince the populace; after all, it was under his leadership of the knightly army, and as the main general, he bears undeniable blame for the defeat.
However, if Laine wants to impose severe punishment, it is also somewhat unrealistic.
Brittania's laws state that members of the initial twelve Holy Grail Knight families are exempt from any charges except for treason and sacrilege.
So, did Laon commit treason or sacrilege?
No.
Mathew Bade is Mathew Bade, Laon is Laon; although they are father and son, they are indeed two independent individuals.
