A seductively rational consideration, that one. Not a single dose of poison from a Roknari dagger, but an ongoing regimen, from a source much closer to home? It would account for the visible symptoms quite exactly. She was sorry she had thought of it.
Is it true? Question.
What’s the story where this is part of the plot, and the protagonist(s) find out and secretly stop the poisoning to allow the king to recover while pretending to continue the poisoning regimen? It’s in several novels and I can’t remember the one I read in the last year or two.
