* MagnificentBastard: Talarist, Duke of Sedna, proves himself [[AdaptationalBadass a lot more resourceful]] than his canon counterpart. [[spoiler:When his fiancée Princess Elodie is deposed by her own subjects in a vote of no confidence during a gala, Talarist reveals that he has brought with him an entire battalion of well-trained Talassian soldiers in the guise of ordinary servants. At his signal, they shoot Banion, the instigator of the vote, and hold those who followed him at swordpoint. Elodie sentences everyone who voted against her to death and, realizing she desperately needs an ally, tells Talarist they should marry immediately. She understands that it's [[AmbiguousSituation ambiguous]] whether Talarist knew of Banion's plot and if not, why he brought the soldiers, but she sees that as things stand now, Talarist is the best ally she has. [[TheStoic Always calm and collected]] and [[EnlightenedSelfInterest very kind to Elodie despite wanting to marry her for her crown]], Talarist is thus able to turn what would have been a coup into a victory for Elodie and himself, and it is implied he [[SoProudOfYou genuinely admires]] Elodie's resilience.]]
