She didn’t want to make this trip at all, having limited experience with royal etiquette (King Jonathan and Queen Thayet are extremely laidback rulers) and, understandably, she’s tense about not wanting to inadvertently eff up these peace talks. If you tried to poke Daine right about now-well, first, she might turn into a bear if you surprise her, but second, you’d probably hear her nerves twang like a bowstring, she’s wound that tight. The gods are watching Carthak…and it looks like they aren’t happy. Daine and a group of emissaries travel to Carthak’s capital for the peace negotiations, but before they even disembark the badger warns Daine not to step foot on Carthaki soil.Īs she was personally invited by the Emperor himself to check on his ailing birds, Daine knows she cannot turn tail and run home, but like her feathered and furred friends, she can sense an uneasy wind blowing through this strange land. Tortall is tired, worried they won’t have enough manpower to go up against the armies and navies of Carthak, but they’ve also leveraged their ties to other countries enough to stand united in the face of a dictator, so Ozorne’s got his own worries. A lilac dress with a delicate gold overlay? So fancy.Īfter three years of tension with Carthak, King Jonathan and Emperor Ozorne are attempting to broker a peace treaty. You go, Glen Coco! I won’t lie I wanted something like it when I was younger. Bonus Factors: Dinosaurs, Animal Friends, Ozorne’s Outfits, Daine Loses Her TemperĬareful, Sweetie: spoilers! This is the third book in The Immortals series, so if you haven’t read Wild Magic or Wolf-Speaker, you should probably hop back in the TARDIS and go curl up in the library by the pool with the first book before continuing.ĭaine wears this exact outfit at some point in the book, so I know whomever designed this actually read the story within.
