The Noble said he has distant relatives that came from that region. Also the charade would only work if Stark looked like his son anyways. So some sort of look alike-ness is required for it.
The second half of the show continues to follow the theme of time and showing parallels between past and present. The people we meet would be distant relatives, an offshoot of his warrior clan upholding many of the warrior traditions and mindsets. However, there is a notable difference. while the father here is critical of his son, he also dotes on him and praises him. You'll notice often the show focuses on things lost to time, that we can't go back and change, but finding ways to reconcile those things by experiencing personal growth or seeing how the world has changed for the better. In this case we see that while his clan still exists in some distant form, it's grown to have a kinder side and be more supportive while still upholding warrior values. Stark see himself in Mut, and knowing Mut isn't deemed a failure seems to offer Stark some catharsis.
Their similar features was addressed at 5:23, both families descend from the same village in the region of Klee. Hinting they share the same family bloodline and may be distant relatives.
I'd say the point was for Stark to have an interaction with a family that reflected his own family to the point that they even look alike because they're from the same region and share ancestry, and then subvert the expectation both him and the viewers have by having Lord Orden be everything Stark's father was not, despite looking almost exactly like him, much in the same way Stark and his brother looked almost exactly like Orden's son Wirt. That way Stark could get some closure through Orden's relationships with his two sons, that reflect his own family but in a positive way, and by Orden's treatment of Stark himself. By the end of the episode Lord Orden went so far as offering to take him into his household, either as a son or as as retainer, and teaching him his family's signature sword techniques. That, along with what they discussed about his son Mut's talent and future, probably did a lot to keep pushing Stark towards overcoming his past.
9:23 The noble was sort of a parallel to Stark's dad. He was sort of who Stark's dad could have been if he actually supported and believed in Stark, kind of like Stark's brother did. It also gives Stark a different perspective since this noble was encouraging his son "Mut" and the son is now less effective cause the praise went to his head. Stark might have become so strong as he is now cause his father was so harsh on him and him therefore wanting to prove himself and therefore train even more, maybe.
The first part of the episode is good as its another that help explains what priests can do as opposed to mages and the importance of having a priest along. Like Heiter.... Another episode will add to this.

No need of internal dialogs. Fern's facial expression tell a thousand words.
Gave me real "prince and the pauper" vibes with stark having a doppelganger.

This one was so good! I really like Sein in this, showing us what he can do and his character is super interesting 🔥
It definitely solidified just how cool he is! 🔥

Yeah, Frieren's breakdown of magic types is great world-building stuff.
