I believe he's calling all of us children. Figure of speech.

I wonder if your father knew his best friend sent assassins

Any resources or men you need, I will provide for you.

There is something else I want to show you, Your Grace.

I don't think she'll come see the dead at my invitation.

because I knew it was the best chance for my people,

If I don't return, at least you won't have to deal

You have many enemies, my king, but I swear to you, I'm not one of them.
