I don't know... it felt weird. I think I pretty much agree with Eddis, and just brush it off as one of Gen's idiocy.
Actually, it would almost echo Attolia's attempts to sow fear and doubt in Eddis when *she* took the throne. Remember how Attolia took her aside and gave her advice about how to treat her barons and how to act, because she thought that Eddis's reign would mirror hers? I feel like Gen was projecting the same way Attolia was. In their experiences, they had to be hard and ruthless, so that's how they in turn treat their fellow monarchs because they think it's for the best.
