I picked on this because the setting for this phase is a non-descript group of villages in the rural countryside - trying to be non-specific as to where, but someplace in the Angevin Empire. In pursuing the questlines, hopefully, the player will find themselves back in the the bosom of the royal court - presumably part of Henry's retinue travelling the countryside.
There will be evidence from the way that the player is received by the retinue showing which of Henry's children is being received - and thus, the player's character is decided.
