Forsaken, Yet Unbowed - Episode 1

Prince Joel captures King Tobias' daughter Freya after Ms. Clark's strategy, but Freya fights, insults him, and screams threats. Court gossip grows when Freya hands over her father's forces and Joel pardons her; they spend days together, she rips Joel's battle manual and injures soldiers, yet he only lightly scolds her. Nobles mock Joel's authority and Ms. Clark's role. The episode's key turn reveals the commander of the assault was Ms. Clark's brother; Ms. Clark is told General Clark is now in trouble, leaving her to face an immediate family-and-court crisis.
