As Alia stepped out, the fight was destined not to happen.
The main figure of the incident, the high-born Alia Stark.

If they had to cut Mika down, what would happen if Miss Stark directly stood in front?
Would you dare to use force?
That would truly be asking for a swift death.
Who would think that injuring the daughter of the Duke of the North would be a smaller matter than the prince getting hurt?

Anyone could see that drawing swords wouldn't accomplish anything here, and holding them would only result in embarrassment.
