To be frank, Princess Marisol, who ascended to the throne, is not a direct descendant of the Royal Family.
Tracing her lineage, Princess Marisol is the daughter of Henry V's uncle, several generations removed. Under normal circumstances, she would have no claim to the succession whatsoever.
Official records suggest that her rise to the throne was entirely the result of the compromise among the three major clans.
As a ruler, Hudson would not view it in such simplistic terms. If it were merely about installing a puppet, there are plenty of other collateral Royal Family members in the Purple Gold Flower Dynasty.
Some of these members even have closer ties by blood than Princess Marisol.
A simple power transition is not worth discussing—the key lies in what came after Marisol's ascension: the immediate issuance of the "Reform Charter."
Reforms are nothing new. With civil war already breaking out, it's clear how severe the deep-rooted issues in the Falcon Kingdom had become.
