Selected Letters of Csethiro Zhasan by astardanced
Fandoms: The Goblin Emperor Series - Katherine Addison
26 Oct 2025

Summary
A great number of Edreveise Revival historians owe a mighty debt indeed to the prolific correspondence of one woman: Csethiro Zhasan, wife of Edrehasivar VII Zhas. The 316th empress of the Ethuveraz was a prolific letter-writer, and her letters to her most regular correspondents — her four sisters, Emiro, Hesiriän, Iru and Saleheio; her close friend and sister in law, Vedero Drazhin; her husband, Edrehasivar VII; and later, her three children — are some of the most prominent primary sources about the court and the Drazhada in the early Edreveise Revival period.

Summary
She had let go of everything else; hope of a retrieval, hope of an apology, hope of seeing her sisters or her son again. It would be enough to know. She did not have to do anything with the knowledge. Ulis would understand. Surely he would.
"To the best of your knowledge, Othala— is the Archduke Maia alive and safe?”
Thara Celehar stared at her for a very long moment, his grip on her trembling fingers very firm. Then he said;
“Sister— he is.”

Summary
It became, he realised quickly, pervasive. All the tiny things which had not been prepared when the Wisdom of Choharo had crashed had now finally trundled through the pipeline, almost a year on. The new coins fully entered circulation, which was protocol. Papers and documents were properly headed with the new imperial seal, which was protocol; Varenechibel's portrait in Beltanthiar IV’s atrium, the formal centrepoint of court, was replaced with Edrehasivar’s, which was protocol. It did not take Setheris a long look to know it was a petulantly good likeness, devoid of all the tiny vanities his predecessors had snuck in; although Setheris was convinced it was painted so the pallid eyes followed you.

Summary
“Dear Maia,” said Csethiro, amused. “Lack of presumption, thy name is Edrehasivar. Well, we are sorry for the faux pas. Have no fear, we are used to keeping quiet on the matter.” She frowned. “Gosh. For a woman who was so worried you disliked us, we are certainly giving you plenty of reasons, in our attempts to diffuse the situation. Damnation.” She sat back, then said, “Ooh, Goëlar,” and sat forwards again. “You have the set! And well-read, we dare say, how impressive…”
The woman's mind was like a scanning bird of prey, Csevet thought exhaustedly as she tottered out of the chair to look at his bookshelf. Pinned one topic and only let it go when it was in its death throes, then leapt instantly off to murder another.(csevet and csethiro have three main things in common: pakh'palar, popular literature, and purpose. not necessarily in that order.)

"You would have done better to choose a daughter of a more traditional house," Osmerrem Pashavaran said. 'The Ceredada girls have just as many ridiculous notions as your sister."
(the daughters of the Marquess Ceredel certainly do have notions)

Summary
It takes one dedicated hand to make a wreck of things, and two to see the artistry in the aftermath. It might not seem that way to other people, but Agatha thinks they've got it handled. Sort of.

Summary
It would be a very gentlemanly thing to do, she thinks, to offer his jacket to a lady, but for the fact that it’s a muggy midsummer evening and no extra layer of warmth is needed.
He’s not being a gentleman, she decides, as she follows him down to the canal where he’s untying one of those funny little boats. He probably just doesn’t want to be seen taking a moonlit stroll with a whore.
After being rescued from the nightmare of the Menagerie, Inej gets to know her new companion over contract negotiation.
