Status Updates From A Forest of Vanity and Valo...

First Women don't have strong enough magic, now it's women should not be able to wield any magic, since it's "unnatural"... Fun 😒

Just write the king that you've caught his niece, your wife, in bed with her illicit lover, things got out of hand, the funeral will be in X days.

Yeah, did I make it clear enough that I hate cheaters and that I'm unable to root for our MC and I'm on the villain's part now, bland and uninteresting as he is?

"I am with child!". Dude, just let her rot in the dungeon.

The chapters are literally three pages long,but at least the book flies by... Am I supposed to root for the cheaters and thieves (derogatory, not a must in fantasy)?

So far the main character has beaten someone up, complained about stinking due to the poors he had to be surrounded by, and ate a good meal. Twice. He's not even the convinced fanatic kind of unpleasant, but the floppy one, sometimes sparing suffering to others because we can't have him kick a dangerous puppy, but we can have him be vile to others. And the other POV character... He seems the definition of a simp.
