	The last time Vasiht'h visited Escutcheon, he was deposited on a field and left to walk through it to the Seni manor. Now, he's traveling to [[Almost Farthest Wing]] which has been transformed into a bustling complex. Since he has no idea how to ask for his ride, he goes up to the information desk as instructed, where he's joined by [[Kis'eh't]], Minister of Science, who tells him that she's tagging along because she needs to start a formal education system, and since Vasiht'h is going to recruit professors, she'd want to toss money and incentives at them.

	Instead of a [[Queen's Tams\|Tams]] vessel (which are all off on a mission from the Empress), the two Glaseah are taking a vessel bought by the Empress and leased to Laisrathera, called the ''Arsia Mons''. Kis'eh't remarks that progress has finally come to Escutcheon as they walk through the station, but Vasiht'h is reminded of the [[Healer's Wedding (Fiction)#Chapter Four\|conversation he had with Jahir earlier]], and his reply is somewhat muted. They end up speaking about Kis'eh't's background and experience in academia, plus her personal growth, some of which occurred while she [[Her Instruments (Series)\|met Reese]].

	Once underway with the briskly competent crew of a female Aera and male Harat-Shar, Vasiht'h reflects that a year since [[First Chatcaavan War\|the war]] is hardly long enough for the Alliance to have recovered, or even react, and is glad that he now lives on Escutcheon. And yet, he's headed to Sector Alpha. Confusingly, he hasn't gotten a lot of mail, either, despite sending messages ahead that he was heading towards certain folks, and especially the one person he wanted to hear from. But, even though they're moving quickly, he spends some time with Kis'eh't discussing Escutcheon apple cultivars for pie.

	Sediryl is being given a tour of [[Jerent Mysfeldt]]'s test plot, and she is amazed that these plants are ''growing'' on her [[Escutcheon\|home world]]. [[Qora]], who with [[Aunal\|another Faulfenzair]] has volunteered to take the tour with her, reminds her that she also has to think of a gift (meaning for her [[Investiture\|investiture]]), also asking her what Beth brought to ''her'' investiture. However, Sediryl is more stumped on what to give [[Jahir Seni Galare\|Jahir]] as a troth gift for their upcoming wedding. At [[Maia]]'s suggestion, Sediryl decides she'll turn to [[Vasiht'h]] for help.		Sediryl is being given a tour of [[Jerent Mysfeldt]]'s test plot, and she is amazed that these plants are ''growing'' on her [[Escutcheon\|home world]].

However, Sediryl is more stumped on what to give [[Jahir Seni Galare\|Jahir]] as a troth gift for their upcoming wedding.

	Back at her office at [[Ontine]], Sediryl is ambushed by [[Valthial Trena Firilith\|Val]], who presses her about her training. Qora volunteers to take over her training since she can't give Val the time he says she needs to take, and Val leaves, satisfied. Qora was serious, however, and intends to keep teaching her Faulfenza dance. Sediryl reluctantly agrees to give an hour each day to Qora right as the sun rises.

	More specifically, telling the public the wedding will be at the announced date, but having the actual wedding a week before, with the traditional feast on the days originally planned for. After all, [[Lisinthir Lauvet Imthereli\|Lisinthir]] and the [[Queen Ransomed]] will be arriving within two weeks, and they are the only people not immediately near a Pad. Plus, Sediryl's tired of waiting. Liolesa accepts this rationale, then calls Reese to a separate discussion about a secret.

Plus, Sediryl's tired of waiting. Liolesa accepts this rationale, then calls Reese to a separate discussion about a secret.

	Said secret, as Reese leads them to the battlements of the castle, is help with a gift Liolesa plans to give Sediryl: a [[Guardkin]]. Reese brings up the fact that, as sentients, Guardkin can't really be given away like that. Liolesa merely wants an introduction and an opportunity to plead her case. If none of the Guardkin on world agree, Liolesa has a back up plan that she's already arranged for. Reese, while accepting that it wouldn't hurt for Sediryl to have an additional person to guard her, notes that she's already guarded by two [[Eldritch Armed Forces#White Dirks\|White Swords]], a [[Eldritch Armed Forces#White Shield\|White Shield]], [[Qora]] and the contingent of Faulfenza following her around, [[Maia]], a D-per, plus Sediryl herself can "melt steel with her mind". From this, Reese guesses Liolesa likes Sediryl personally, and then segues into Beth's plotting, reminding Liolesa that she is here to help. But having secured Reese's help with the gift, Liolesa is pleased.

	Sediryl complains that having a discussion about securing her wedding while she's being fitted for her wedding gown, particularly the corset, is cruel. Liolesa comments on her tone to [[Reese]], who replies that it's good practice for when she's in Liolesa's shoes. [[Irine]] continues the banter, tossing it back to Liolesa, with [[Fassiana]] making "a noise too delicate to be a snort, but... unmistakably related to one". When Liolesa compares them to Sediryl's investiture robes, Sediryl has to sit on her impulse to stick out her tongue at her sovereign while continuing the conversation: The capital is out because they don't want complete strangers to attend (Liolesa says they'll find a way anyway) and insists on wedding at the Seni manor because Jahir wants to. Liolesa suggests [[Rose Point]] instead, but Sediryl rejects that since neither of them have emotional ties to the place. In the ensuing pause, Fassiana says that Delen is out for the same reasons against Seni or Laisrathera. Irine cautiously suggests having the wedding at Nuera, which Sediryl refuses point blank, since [[Thesali Nuera Galare\|her mother]] wouldn't give permission even if she wanted to wed there.

	Reese brings out a Plan B, which is alternate arrangements Liolesa had prepared in advance with Reese. Sediryl begins to object, but citing [[Laisrathera (Fiction)\|the civil war]] in the recent past, Liolesa dismisses it. Even though it's going to be a circus, Irine compliments Sediryl's wedding dress and Reese agrees. The wedding dress is being made by [[Liral Sura Eddings\|Liral]], to whom Fassiana referred Sediryl. The conversation shifts to security arrangements while Sediryl muses to herself how she wants to marry, then she comes up with an idea.

	The Queen tells of the crash they found and what it means, plus the current state of the Chatcaavan Empire.

Lisinthir takes advantage of Jahir's presence to read the room, pausing over Hirianthial to wonder how he was being perceived: As himself? As a combination of himself and Jahir?

	At the end of the Queen's recitation and his addition, Sediryl opines that they should have invited Val, since, essentially, he's another mind-mage. Jahir asks if Chatcaava could become mages of the Queen, who replies that while she and the Emperor haven't, they are only two data points, with Lisinthir pointing out that they took their pattern of him before he'd manifested his powers. Sediryl brings up the mysterious Chatcaavan that [[Baniel]] conspired with,<ref name="la-00"> ''[[Laisrathera (Fiction)\|Laisrathera]]''</ref> but that one was drained, and draining can be done to someone without talent. The Twelveworld Lord asks for clarification on the nature of Eldritch esper ability, which prompts Lisinthir to bring up that there is a possible psychic component to the Change. But finding out that for certain would require trusting at Chatcaava with the pattern of an Eldritch mage, so Liolesa proposes they simply assume it's possible in order to guard against it. The Queen agrees, reiterating<ref name="mp-pa">''Major Pieces'', [[Major Pieces (Fiction)#Patience\|Patience]]</ref> that the Emperor is personally and politically invested in tracking down Traitor-Second. Liolesa then brings up the other item the Queen wanted to discuss, and the Chancellor excuses himself, bringing Hiranthial with him. The dragons, Sediryl, and Jahir also leave, and Liolesa posts Lisinthir on this side of the door to guard.

	Liolesa first brings up the succession of Imthereli House, and the Queen tells her that she both plans for there to be several children and that she wants to bear the child on Imthereli soil, citing legal implications. Liolesa turns to Lisinthir and asks if he intends to make a male firstborn heir, to which he agrees. Then Liolesa clarifies that the Queen wants her to look into the future for the right path forward, and states that they have ten years. For what, to guard against what, she cannot say, only that they have ten years for it, give or take a year.
