What happens
It is no secret that the marriage of our ruler and their spouse isn't the most loving union and producing an heir has turned out to be quite problematic. It is rumored that our ruler has had a number of extra marital affairs and the reputation of our Kingdom is running the risk of becoming tarnished. our ruler will not hear of a word about divorce, however, and considers such a thing deeply immoral.\nInstead they argues that if bigamy could work for the patriarchs then perhaps that could be used as a precedent for allowing their a second union. The Reformers that have been contacted to give their opinions on this have been very hesitant, to say the least, but our ruler seems determined this is the best solution to their problem.
