Tossed in a new world without connections and allies, she has to either accept her fate or lose the chance to help her people once again. She soon finds out that her new husband knows more about her than she does herself, and that his purposes are often far from what she expects.

No one will dare to consider your words a lie: if you say that you were painting souls, then it's the truth.» «I will remember it.» «No, you have to understand it, Theodora. You're not a prisoner, but my wife. I'll protect you when you need it, and I'll help you with any issue you have. You're not just a Duchess in the name.

The Empress Grandmother (2)

It's the first time I hear of someone becoming crazy because of poison.

I understand it's possible, due more to the pain or ugly after-effects of the venom rather than the substance itself. However, this woman doesn't seem traumatised. She's just forgetful and senile.

I mean, she looks senile. I don't know if it is all just a pretence.

It wouldn't surprise me.

No one has suspected anything because her illness started with her second born's execution. Every mother would despair over such an occurrence.

But how long do crazy people live? Is it possible for an unbalanced brain to survive years? What more, alone and exiled into a building.

She treats dead people as if they were alive; this seems enough to scare away the other people. Alexander doesn't like to talk with her because the wound of his parents' death still hurts. The others probably feel just awkward.
