King of Kassel
The King of Kassel expects to be obeyed at all times.
The King suffered great grief when his lovely wife died. He allowed himself to be enthralled by Lady Lorelei to escape from feeling and thinking deeply.
With the help of his daughters, the King overcomes Lady Lorelei's wishes enough to end the spell and finds himself strong enough to accept grief.
Even after he comes back to his senses, the King sees Emma as a helpless child. When Emma says there should be no fighting he sees this as proof of her innocence and ignorance.
He is going to need a very strong demonstration to be convinced that war is not the only way.
