    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.”
    ---
    In a Thu-Tetar nunnery, the Dach'othalo asks a Sister of Ulis: Did you enter this place as Chenelo Drazharan?

    Summary

    Nalis had not felt the weight of his own omissions so keenly since he had heard secondhand, weeks after his recovery, that the Archduke Maia’s entire household had been lost to plague, and that he was presumed as dead as they were– that he was missing, and that perhaps there would be a reward if he were found, and that there were men venturing into the Edonara to trawl for his corpse.

    The fact that Prince Idra had made the order a request– that he’d clearly realized he had no real recourse against Nalis if he refused– 

    Csevet was visibly horrified, stifling himself from correcting the emperor’s phrasing. Nalis caught his eye, trying to seem loyal and reassuring, and said to Prince Idra, “Serenity, we are entirely at your service.”

    Summary

    "No doubt thou didst melt the seal open on the steam vents to read the business of thy betters, planned how thou wouldst ingratiate thyself with the Archduke— oh yes, we know thy tricks…”
    Not the steam vents, thinks Csevet. It would wet the paper. The hot pipes, yes— but not the vents. He would only use a steam vent if he wanted to bleed the ink onto the external sheet and claim inclement weather, and that almost never can be gotten away with inside the court.
    Captain Orthema is saying Lord Chavar, leave Mer Aisava, but Csevet knows Chavar will not move for love or money now, not until he has said his piece.
    --
    Two attempts on the throne; and Csevet Aisava, in the shadows.

    Summary

    “Sometimes I think this is more exhausting than the fighting,” Moonshine says. “All the unpacking.”

    He snorts. The knots in his chest loosen. Of course he belongs here, laying in the dirt with Moonshine. Home, home, home. “Price of saving the world,” he says. “Laundry.”

    Gruumsh is subdued and Kord’s Hall is saved and Hardwon Surefoot moves (back) into a little house in Gladehome.
