Summary
“Momma,” The child is the first to break the heavy silence, but she doesn’t turn to face her, though her kneading does stop, the sting of her too-sharp claws no longer pricking at her shell, “am I only half a person?”
Or: Herrah comforts her daughter as her self-worth is brought into question.

Summary
There were many steps involved in bringing a Weaver into Pharloom.
First, the locating. Then, the sendoff - like soldiers off to war. Then the capture. The return. And lastly, the handoff.
The principle was simple. Give the captured Weaver to the first available Poppet; the silk-spun creations of their God, free to carry the threefold melody, voices to uplift and bring the chosen up through the Cradle.
Poppets were becoming rarer and rarer. For this half-weaver, there was only one left to receive it.
What happened then was no error, nor coup. It had not been for her benefit. She'd only done it because, well.
Because she could.

Summary
Having a child isn't so bad, as long as they don't make the same mistakes you do.
Watching the Pale King and his Gendered Child interact is always a strange sight. The King is so elusive and distant - watching a little weaver follow behind him and ask a thousand questions per hour while he patiently answers each and every one is silly, but sweet.
Whenever the Gendered Child comes to the White Palace, her father does his level best to teach her everything he knows, in the desperate hope that she'll know better than him someday.

Summary
Hornet of Hallownest and Lace of Pharloom were two very different beings.
This was what Hornet believed - one impossibly young, one inconceivably old, one loud and boisterous, one cold and contemplative, one ashamed of all she was, one proud of how far she'd come.
Acting as her companion for a time to look out for her as she recovered, however, changed Hornet's mind somewhat.
