Wait, so you mean Lehndorff's favorite niece is attracted to the same kind of person as Lehndorff's favorite prince? Poor Lehndorff.
Quite. In the next installment, she nearly gets arrested for those guy's debts.
You mean like moving to England with someone you just met?
A hit, a palpable hit! I mean, it's of course entirely possible that he'd have truly been happy with Hotham there, and wouldn't have regreted his choice, but, you know: it's 1756, the war starts, and England explodes into Fritzmania. Also Heinrich transforms into a war hero. Somehow I can't imagine AU!Lehndorff in England thinking "yeah, good thing I got out of in time" , as opposed to "OMG! The Russians are at Steinort, is my mother alright, hope my siblings have told her to move to Berlin in time! And ZOMG what about Prince Heinrich!!!!"
