- My Concubine was acting as my Diviner.
- She was found to be stealing money, I took the option that stripped her of her position.
- I then tried to arrest her; she fled to a foreign court.
- She was still my concubine, and still liked me, so I gifted her 15 gold and invited her back to court.

She never received the invitation, as she conveniently 'Died a natural death' in the few days it took to arrive.

I'm assuming this was not a coincidence, and lowborn characters with no family in AI courts are aggressively pruned as part of the optimisation.

However, characters with relationships (Concubine, Lover, Rival, etc) should definitely NOT be pruned in this way.

Are you sure she was still your concubine? I'd expect that status to be removed on the next tick (possibly the day after you sent the gift) since she's not in your court.
