"Yeah but.. you just said you were really young, right? So how are you now? You can't be any older than I am and I'm sorry but I don't think a ten year old or however old you were when this happened is capable of ruling a kingdom yet. That's not your fault. I mean, look at Romeo. Think he would know what to do if his kingdom was falling apart?"
He wasn't sure any of that would really make Inigo feel better, but he decided to try another angle too. "Our kingdom was taken over and our city was destroyed too. It was several months ago now, but Noct lost his dad and we all have just been trying to hold it together. Where were your supporters? Where was your Crownsguard when you needed them?"
