Log Horizon - ep17


Now as Minori is leading the counter-offensive against the goblins, the real drama is happening back at the castle. The reason for this is that there is a bunch of political games going on. The adventures know that the lords of Eastal need their help because the knights of Izumo have vanished. That here we have clear mention of what happened to them, that it wasn't just the adventures that were affect by the apocalypse. That without the knights the only choice that they really have is to rely on the adventures, but there pride will not let them because they view the adventures as being beneath them because they are not even citizens. While the adventures are trying to remain as neutral as possible, which is difficult because they want to help. While they also feel a degree of responsibility for this crisis because they didn't defeat the goblin king before he was crowned.


In the end this dead-lock was broken by Lady Lenessia, that it is through her interaction with Crusty that allow her to take this step. That during the conference between the lords of Eastal and the adventures, things are not going well because they want to use the adventures as tools. While the adventures need act carefully because this interaction will determine their future relationship. That what it come down to is that the adventures don't have any obligation to do anything nor do the lords have the power to force them to act. That it is only Lady Lenessia that takes the proper course of action by deciding to go to Akihabara to request help for the adventures as equals. Then each adventure has to freedom to choose for themselves whether to help or not. That with this action is seems that Lenessia is going to be permanently place in Akihabara as Eastal representative, and with it she will get her freedom.
