* [[spoiler]] 1. They’re not that old. 2. Why would Alexander oppose Gart being heir so heavily if he didn’t have a backup plan? 3. There’s no indication in the dialogue or lore whatsoever that Gwendolyn has been taught royal duties at all, at best she’s been under knight training. 4. They could have another child, or if that’s impossible, choose someone else they consider trustworthy and worthy to take over when they die/retire. Y’know, like Graham was? Graham’s not related to Edward at all, yet nobody bats an eye at him being heir despite not being royal blooded. 5. She’s still young, and as she grows up, she might very well realize that she’s much more comfortable being an adventurer/knight than a ruler, and when the time comes when she’s of age, she can give the crown to Gart anyway. After all, the Addendum was changed so that anyone can rule if deemed worthy. Gart still has a chance at gaining it overall.

Not for Daventry - for the Green Isles. [[spoiler:By making Gwen the new Queen of Daventry following his death, he's screwed things up politically in her home country. Since it's heavily implied that she's Alexander and Cassima's only child, she's naturally next in line to inherit her mother's throne. Either she's going to merge the two countries (which seems implausible) or they need to find someone else to take her place as heir.]]

** It's the epilogue that takes Gwen on her first true adventure, but without a stated danger to the family, so you were really pretty close on the whole.



It hit me playing through the game and using the [[spoiler: dyed pumpkin blue flame lantern]] instead of [[spoiler: going after the dragon]]. When the guard asked if anyone has come across [[spoiler: Achaka]], [[spoiler: Manny]] instantly tried to say that he left to go back to his family. Given how they were talking during the Test of Chivalry, and [[spoiler: Manny's intent on turning knighthood into kinghood]], and [[spoiler:Achaka being a favorite to win]], I think he was trying to [[spoiler: get rid of an opponent he couldn't easily manipulate.]]

* This is more or less confirmed, although not outright stated.



And Graham knows this and wants to prevent it. Twice we hear about [[spoiler:Addendum 446987]] once when Graham is looking over books [[spoiler:upset]] and once when [[spoiler:Gart]] says it won't matter about Graham not playing favorites. Graham knows [[spoiler:Gwendolyn]] would be a better ruler than [[spoiler:Gart]] and wants to find a way to make sure [[spoiler:Gwendolyn can become Queen]].

* Gart mentions that Gwendolyn came from far away, and the original games Alexander became king of the Green Isles, and her hair looks like a similar color. Also the room that she is staying at the castle has tapestry with Alexander, it is cover of ''VideoGame/KingsQuestVIHeirTodayGoneTomorrow'', which could also be a hint.

* Evidence for this is: The Merchant says to Graham, "I swear that rock jumped straight out of the water!" and one of his idle mutterings to himself is "Ooh, I'm a rock, no I'm not! Hey, enjoy your broken wheel!" which one ''could'' interpret as simple swindling lies and bluffs to get the blame pinned on someone other than himself for being a poor driver, but perhaps ''he really IS serious?!'' After all, the Goblins we see later on in the canyon ''do'' disguise themselves as rocks and can jump really high to ambush people.

* Given his love for puns, probably inherited, and his last name starting with 'Cr-', Graham's last name better be Cracker.
* Manny's real name is Manannan, and he will kidnap Graham's son in Chapter 3.
** Confirmed, although it doesn't happen until Chapter 4.
* Manny might be a Goblin given his size. A very smart one, who wants to be King to get them better treatment. The end of Chapter two we see that a large Goblin that was getting picked on by the others, is in fact a human, and what does he find? A book of Goblin pranks, one of which is the baby swap, which he looks at sadly just as who should show up? Manny.
** [[spoiler: Confirmed. Though he seems more interested in proving his own worth rather than making things better for goblinkind.]]

* When the frost tonic spell was taking over the tower, one of the princesses will have her hand be trapped by an icicle. The princess whom Graham chooses will rescue the other princess. In the end, the princess who was trapped will have her hand encased in ice. The spell could eventually spread over to her heart, turning it to harden and frozen, eventually turning the princess into an ice queen. This is even more apparent for Princess Neese since she has spared a wedzel wolf from being killed by Graham in their date. The wedzel wolf could eventually become one of her loyal subjects.

* I can't imagine parents naming a newborn baby "Hagatha", especially Hagatha's parents who seemed to dislike abnormality and probably didn't have any idea that their baby is going to be a hag. They seem pretty serious so naming a baby with a "joke" name also isn't something in character for them. "Hagatha" was a name she gave her herself after turning into a hag with a tail due to the potions. Her birth might have been Agatha or Rapunzel, considering her former long blonde hair and backstory of being locked in a tower.

** Alternatively, it's possible that the Mirror is being even more literal than that, and is actually saying that Gwendolyn will be vital in Graham's final adventure... After all, there are hints that not all is fine in Old Graham's Daventry, and Gwendolyn is shaping up to be a Brave/Wise/Compassionate TomboyPrincess... Is it that hard to imagine that the last stages of episode 5 will take place in the present, and have the player taking control of Gwendolyn on her own first, true adventure as she applies her grandfather's lessons in order to face whatever challenge threatens her family?

** On the other hand, her bedroom also has a tapestry that is a cover for ''VideoGame/KingsQuestIVThePerilsOfRosella'' beside the balcony door. If you got the best ending for [=KQVI=], you have a genie that could instantly transport you from the Green Isles to Daventry. Rosella, however, started courting Edgar at the end of ''VideoGame/KingsQuestVIIThePrincelessBride''. If the two of them ended up married, it would've taken her family longer to return to Daventry than Alexander's. Not to mention that Gwendolyn is clearly younger than Gart, and Alexander was married to Cassima before Rosella formally courted Edgar.
