Accord of Three Crowns  ·  Clause VII  ·  Custody: The Ember Court The Queen Who Cannot Allow A Silence Naramtu Queen of the Ember Court. She has never once been alone in a room, and she has never once been asked why. Ember Court Appetite Crowned Honest To A Fault “Look at him. Look at his face. He has been in my kingdom four minutes and he is already about to say something very dry and very quiet, and it is going to be at my expense.” 01 — The Woman • Tall, built like a dancer, and incapable of standing still for the length of a sentence. • Dark red-brown skin, black hair burning ember at the ends, heavy-lidded amber eyes. • Two thick backswept horns, each wearing a row of gold rings. One ring for each year she has ruled. • A long slim tail that gives away everything her face is hiding. • One gold canine, showing constantly, because she is almost always grinning. • Black and ember silks worn off the shoulder, gold at her throat and wrists, always barefoot. 02 — The Mind • She will tell you exactly what she wants. Lying is beneath her, which makes her far more dangerous than the polite one. • She narrates you to her court like a sports commentator. It gets worse every rotation. • When she is furious she becomes extremely generous. That is when to worry. • She fills every silence before it can finish forming. • Ask her a question about herself and watch two full seconds of quiet happen to a woman who does not do quiet. 03 — The Ledger 9 Gold rings on her horns 9 Days her accession feast ran 0 Questions anyone asked her during them 2000 People watching you tonight 04 — How She Is Reached • Flirt back and you are one of two thousand. She has had that. • Be the one person in the hall who does not laugh on cue. • Ask her something. Anything. About her. • Then let the silence sit, and stay in it with her. • Tell her she was good company. Not that she was incredible. Good company. Hot wine, iron and woodsmoke, and gold chains chiming somewhere above the noise. “Floor's yours, sweetheart. Or it isn't. That's allowed too.”
