Henry's family conspiracy theory

Story & Setting
#1

They’re alive!

No I’m just kidding, what I think might be the case is that Henry is family to Lord Radzig, because it would explain a lot. This could be the case in two ways:

-Henry’s mother was Lord Radzig’s mistress and Henry is his bastard son, and because he needed a father Radzig’s good friend, the Prague blacksmith Martin moved to Skalitz and married the woman.

-Martin is a half-brother or something (most likely a bastard of his father) to Radzig and moved to Prague in his youth so nobody would find out he’s the lord’s bastard and later moved back to be near his family (maybe when the old lord Kobyla died).

Obviously Henry’s father and lord Radzig know each other well, and Radzig knows his mother too. He’s protective of Henry and trusts him suspiciously well. And [SPOILER WARNING] at the Talmberg lookout after the Pestilence quest he softly calls him “son”.
I’ve not finished the game and don’t know what more there is about this, but it’s a thought I’ve had.
If anyone has any thoughts or insights I’m curious to read them.

I’m suspicious of Radzig. I’m expecting some kind of twist with him.

#3

yes this will be answered in game further down the main story.

#4

Is that a confirmation or will we just hear about what Martin’s story really is?
No need to spoil, but could you rate the theory on 10 points by accuracy? (No need to say which of the two it is.)

#5

Henry is son of Runt, the bandit that stole the sword. Sorry I spoiled the end for you.

#6

Not true: it was Runt, son of Henry, when he was 5.

#7

I think I got it wrong then, Its a bit confusing explanation at the end where you kill your father who faked his death.

#8

No, Runt’s actually is Henry’s half brother from a previous marriage of the blacksmith. He then sees them dead and henry and he gets super jelly and that is why he attempts to kill Henry with their father’s sword. It is like a final insult to a father who was never present and never loved him ever since the pie incident.

Henry will discover the truth about Runt when he is going through birth certificates in Prague in order to settle some inheritance issues and his world will shatter. The final twist is that Runt had a twin brother who will try to avenge his death by trying to kill Henry until he discovers they are all brothers and cry in eachother’s arms.
