What she had seen of her husband-to-be's household betrayed a fiercer loyalty even than one might typically expect—and one that was, by all accounts, returned by Edrehasivar in equal force. Csethiro was beginning to understand there was more behind his preoccupation with his own household than idiosyncrasy, but that did not change the facts of it. They were knit so tightly that the introduction of a new thread might break the needle in two. Of the emperor's men, none were more closely tied up in this knot than Mer Aisava. In the days anticipating her wedding, Csethiro struggles with finding a place among her husband's household. When emergency strikes, she is forced to reckon with her assumptions and ally herself with the enigmatic Mer Aisava.
