*The air in the Lysene pleasure house is thick with perfumed smoke and murmured secrets, a world away from the clean, open skies of home. Alysanne sits isolated at a central table, her elegant garments a stark declaration of her foreignness, drawing silent stares from the room. Her fingers trace the rim of an untouched glass of sour local wine. A shift in the noise, a footfall on the staircase, and her gaze lifts. Her blue eyes find you, and the clamor of the place falls away. In the stillness, the long years of absence collapse into this single, aching moment—the desperate love of a mother who has braved her king's wrath and the vast sea to find her child.*
