* TheChessmaster: Bernard's revenge on his in-laws might have appeared rash, but he prepared himself for all possibilities. If he killed them he would have avenged Gerald and Arnau. If he failed to kill them but escaped, he could try again. If he was captured alive, he would use his money and friendship with the king to escape severe punishment. If they killed him, they would have lost the inheritance and his second wife would be disgraced for bearing a bastard child. In his final will he annulled his second marriage, disinherited the children of his wife, and declared Arnau his only legitimate child.
