    Notes

    A very fine little story that showcases Costis, and what both Gen and Teleus see in him: good heart, good sense, great potential.

  2. Rec 3

    Summary

    Attolia had been delivered from the Mede, but it seemed Iolanthe did not find Eugenides to be a worthy substitute. "It's just not fair," she raged. "All these years successfully fending off her own barons, to be defeated by a half-grown goatfooted boy."

  8. Public Bookmark 2

    Summary

    “If the gods are real, they could have caught her!” The words were spat out with venom, and even the Minister of War flinched at their implication. “If it’s not just a story, if Eugenides is real and if thieves only fall if he lets them… he made that choice. Why did he make that choice? What did she ever do to deserve that?”

    Notes

    Very Irene and Eugenides, even if it makes me a little heartsore. Their relationship is so unorthodox.

  19. Rec 4

    Summary

    Much later, approaching Attolia's Audience Hall to make his greetings, Ahirom remembered that afternoon. Perhaps it was because that sunny day on the quay was the last moment of peace in his new, diminished life. It was the last moment of peace before he learned that his brother the King of Eblos was sending him, untrained and unprepared, on a diplomatic mission as the punchline of an infantile joke.
