Summary
“Are you well?” It was a loaded question. Hornet had just brought Lace’s world crashing down on top of her, unraveled everything she had ever known. How could Lace possibly be well?
“How considerate of you, spider, to ask only now.” Lace’s tone held some degree of bite, but Hornet could tell that she was exhausted by her time possessed by void. “Not when you stole Mother’s affections, not when you shredded my pathetic shell and crushed my desires, but only now.”
Or:
The aftermath of Pharloom's severing from void.

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.
