Part 7/15:
The alliance begins to blossom with scenes of Lenor and Renera touring the beaches, despite their mutual discomfort. It’s evident they both see marriage as a duty, with Renera openly stating she’s willing to marry Lenor for the realm's stability, even knowing neither is truly enthusiastic. Notably, Lenor—rumored in the books as possibly gay—confirms his preference for men, adding subtle layers of complexity to his character and foreshadowing future paternity questions.
Their union is less about love and more about political necessity. Renera, aware of her predicament, suggests a pragmatic approach: fulfill societal expectations while maintaining personal freedom and secrecy—implying she may still harbor affections for Damon or others.
