Difference between revisions of "Summary:White Sand"

Duchess Khrissalla marks which balcony Kenton has landed on then angrily climbs the inconvenient ladders of the Diem to reach Kenton's floor. She enters his chambers asking to talk; then and slaps him while yelling at him for not telling her that he was a "Sand Mage." They clear up why Kenton did not understand her use of the word "mage" to mean sand mastery (to Kenton, "mages" use party tricks or are charlatans that prey on the foolish). Kenton also confirms that he wasn't lying when they met, as he has only been the Lord Mastrell for two days and was "unimportant" when they met. Khrisalla asks if Sand Mastery can be used against the bullet proof soldiers of the Dynasty. Aarik arrives while Kenton is trying to explain the Diem's crisis and Khriss blows up (again) then storms out. Khrissalla and Baon begin to leave, but the ladder breaks. Kenton masters sand to lower himself, holding Khrissalla, to the courtyard; he then lowers Baon down on his own. Khriss blows up a third time and storms away. As they get in the ferry returning to Kezare, Baon tells Khriss that she needs to learn to judge people, not just faces and titles.
