So...this just shows how good a father he is, really.
First he zaps his daughter with a magical relic of unknown power and abilities, then he turns against the group that his son is allied with, THEN he forces his daughter to attack that group's city, and all the while getting on the bad side of his son's girlfriend.
PERFECT FATHER
It looks like Bryce did not arrive in time to save the queen. To fix this problem they might have to give the queen a third eye and the ability to change into a giant monster.
The plot thickens! Who is that daring shadow? Will the queen ever return to her normal self? What madness has Lucien's Father thought of now? Where IS Waldo?!?
all these questions and more* will be answered in the next episode of... CRIMSON FLAG
*Okay not really.
