Ramil to Paytai: I will protect you.
Also Ramil:

Domundi should face murder charges for completely butchering Ramil's character. It would be better not to have their scenes anymore.

So, the attackers did not even ensure the child's death?

The last sequence is more like the cast celebrating after the final wrap.

And laughing beside Willie, when they were showing all the couples.

Wait, the wedding scene was so trippy it has made me think that all of them are in a kind of trance, or coma, and everyone is hallucinating. Not only the presence of Tony, the vibe of the whole sequence was too surreal.

There should be a closure to their relationship at least.

I like your profile picture!

I don't remember exactly but I think it was later made to look like an ambush on the carriage , and some nearby villagers were killed to account for the attackers' bodies or maybe they saw something. I read one big long fan translation, but should not be first book, as it was revealed in the end.

Actually I opened AO3 yesterday, and someone has written a RamilPaytai fanfic about that exact suit.

The way his eyes glitter and his lip twitches forward.

I understood from the book (although poorly translated) that the king was planning much ahead of time to win the competition. He decided to raise Khanin secretly, and he himself ordered the ambush on Khanin and his mother, ordered Thadanai to take Khanin and run, and send another group of men to kill Charan's mother, then killed off those men later one by one. I think one of those men's brother was an aid to Wasin. That's why Khanin could not believe his ears and asked again and again, all these for just a competition?

Fencing competition should be held as fencing has always been a key element both in the book and here. Most likely Khanin would win, having all three win in one level each. Then they will proceed towards the book ending, probably after a huge confrontation between the young and the old people. I am expecting the confrontation because the old generation should have an earful from the young ones.

So, Khanin does not know that his mother was also killed by the king, right?

Why do I feel like Jimmy looks like the Chinese actress Tang Wei (Decision to Leave)?

I thought this would be archery with Ava winning, next would be fencing with Khanin winning with climax, final one being the aftermath.

It's not only about caring, it's about being smart. If you decide to trust someone completely, you should know them out and out. Family is a basic information.

I really like Paytai's suit.

As I said somewhere down here, I can not ignore the possibility of Ramil carrying her only to save his own back.

I did not expect everything to be revealed in this episode!
