Looking at her again, I thought, mmm, very pretty but those eyes...what about Alivda?

That there's an empire out there, and it's mine look that makes her father and grandmother think she should have been drowned at birth. I have her walking around in my head, thinking dark thoughts about having her weird brother show up and be handed on a platter the job she thought ought to be hers. She'll figure it still can be hers if her brother screws up enough, or gets himself killed, and she won't be above encouraging that happy event, as long as Amel won't catch her at it. - A.
