“Winter Queen,” I said, now able to converse appropriately. “It's unseemly for me to present myself to a monarch sat on a throne within the lands of my own kingdom.”
That's fair.
“Princess of Tirea. It's also unseemly to kidnap the monarchs of other kingdoms.”
That is also fair.
So in other words he pledges something that isn't his to give. He has already given that to his current monarch, and the price of failure to honour that oath is death. So he can't swear fealty to a different monarch without the permission from his current liege, or first sacrificing his life. He also can't void any other loyalties of his vassals, or ownership of property that are above his station.
Also this appears to be an absolute monarchy, so legally he can't do jack sh*t if the monarch disagrees. Heck they could change his name to Assbutt, and he couldn't reject it.
