Author's Note
Since many of you disliked the outcome of the trial I decided to stick with more a hybrid ending with Ben defying the King despite his initial doubts. But now that he has crossed the line, it will be much more harder to help characters like Rishia, something he could easily do with his hero status. And there will be a lot of other complications as well. I am only doing it because it's a key point of the story overall and with some very passionate readers of this story not liking it, I had no other choice but to find a way around that.
That might not happen every time though. Make sure to remember that.
Take care
Stay healthy, Stay safe.
