The newspaper said (a few chapters ago) that dofla has stepped down as king as well But in 706, the announcer says 'our king' instead of 'our former king' while talking about Bellamy. And the laws dofla placed are still in effect. So it seems that while officially he has resigned as king, he is still considered king by the citizens.
