Peyna explains to Peter that, by law, he is already King of Delain. Coronations are only for show. This puts Delain in a tough position because kings are above the law. Peyna advises Peter to think about it carefully because if he takes the crown while the people think he killed his father there could be civil war. Peyna asks Peter to put aside the crown until after there is a trial. If he is found innocent, he can reclaim the throne, but if he is found guilty he will spend the rest of his life atop the Needle because, by law, nobody in the royal family can be executed.
Peter repeats that he loved his father and is innocent, but he thinks on the question. Peyna notes that if Peter refuses trial, he will retire because he cannot serve both the law and a murderous king.
