=== Chapter 2 ===
Princess [[Sarene]] of [[Teod]] arrives in Arelon to find that she is now considered a widow to the presumed dead Raoden, despite the fact that they were only engaged and had never met. She discusses the relevant clause in the marriage contract with [[Seon Ashe|Ashe]], her [[seon]], who confirms that the contract is firm on this point. She asks a servant of King Iadon, [[Ketol]], to take her to the prince's wake. At the wake, Sarene is not allowed to look in the casket (the excuse given is that the disease was disfiguring), and finds Iadon's absence from the funeral and the funeral's formality suspicious. She contemplates the loneliness of her life up to this point and the city of [[Kae]]. She discusses with Ashe the necessity of her marriage treaty and the alliance it brings to help ward off Fjorden invaders. She is taken to King Iadon, whom rudely dismisses her and hands her off to his wife, [[Eshen|Queen Eshen]], who proves to be a scatterbrained, frivolous woman. After settling in to her new rooms, she holds a conference with her father, [[Eventeo|King Eventeo]], to inform him of the death of her husband. He offers to void the marriage contract for her; Sarene is tempted, but decides that it is best for Teod if she remains.
