Nope. It however sounds like a logic error in the narrative.

If I say:

"Shannon and Kanon arrived before midnight. At midnight there's a knock, the sibling open the door and see a letter. Shannon and Kanon arrived a hour ago. The siblings open the letter."

I basically imply that the siblings took a hour before opening the letter (so they opened it around 1 AM). But at 1 AM was proclaimed the end of the family conference (though they kept on discussing anyway). Wouldn't have been more logic to put the sentence there?

Plus after opening the letter, reading its content, handing the ring to Battler Krauss came back and the family conference continued with them arguing over the ring so it's not like the handing the ring to Battler happened when it was about to be 1 AM.
