Well, you've definitely given me something to think about! I've never seen Chivalry as "broken" before, I always thought his abdication and withdrawal from the court life was more to protect Fitz and to make peace with his own father & Patience and possibly also an attempt to try to save his "perfect" image in his people's eyes than suffering the ultimate defeat. Hmm.
