Lady '''Seaden'''
==Appearance and Personality==
She is quite overweight,{{book ref|Elantris|14}} but becomes noticeably thinner after participating in the fencing sessions that [[Sarene]] organized for the noble ladies of the court.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} She is strong-willed and does not defer to her husband.{{book ref|Elantris|32}} Her name is based on [[Aon#Sea|Aon Sea]], which means chastity and faithfulness.{{book ref|Elantris|part=ars}}
==History==
During a needlepoint session with other noble ladies, she commented that priests were the only people that cared which of the religions one worships.{{book ref|Elantris|14}}
She was quite eager to learn about fencing after hearing tales about the customs in [[Teod]], although some of the tales were exaggerated.{{book ref|Elantris|14}} She and her daughter Torena both participated in Sarene's lessons.{{book ref|Elantris|17}}
The fencing lessons inspired Seaden to live a healthier lifestyle, including better eating habits. Ahan preferred a full-figured woman and was disappointed by her weight loss, but Seaden was undeterred and tried to convince him that he should also eat better.{{book ref|Elantris|32}}
There is no indication that Seaden was aware of Ahan's plot to betray [[Roial]]; she was not present when Torena and a disgraced Ahan attended [[Hrathen]]'s funeral.{{book ref|Elantris|epilogue}}
