At any given point in time, when you introduce the Auld Sweats into a situation, there's a good chance that chaos will erupt. Those in attendance at the royal wedding of the Sovereign Princess of Licksburg, and Lord Dannel (Lucky) Bark are finding this out, in spades.
Of course, it's the banker Bark that's most distressed by what Pte. Plimsoll has to say...

Uh oh. I have no idea who she's going to aim that thing at, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to be downrange of it.
Lucky was ready to get aced out of the marriage. He'd already decided he didn't really want to be married to Anastasia; reference his earlier comment about her not being happy about it, and he wasn't happy about that. So his reaction isn't a surprise.
Two to one Gawain put Plimsoll up to it.
But things aren't settled yet. Obviously, Lucky's wyrmpelf won't come to anyone's rescue. But the run on the banks needs to be dealt with, and that's the payoff of the plan: WW5 obviously has in mind terms for settling the accounts that include getting the bankers' boot off of Licksburg's neck, once and for all.

The wind is howling from this fire-storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I've tried
Don't let them out, don't let them flee
No more good girl I always had to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know
Let it burn, let it burn
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it burn, let it burn
Banker's ashes on the floor
I don't care what they're going to say
Let the fire rage on
The smell never bothered me anyway
Let it burn, let it burn
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it burn, let it burn
Banker's ashes on the floor
Upon further thought...
It's obvious Gawain has decided to back WW5's play, to the hilt. Doesn't explain the Auld Sweats being there in the first place, but he's obviously made good use of them. Why Gawain has chosen that action, though, given his deep antipathy to WW5...the explanation will be interesting. Must be a matter of Statecraft.
And something tells me the booboo in the contract, while it would have been fatal in any case, will prove especially disastrous under the changed circumstances.
