    Summary

    “Shaleän is an… awkward question for the Corat' Dav Arhos,” said Csevet slowly. “And we gather she is not much discussed in noble society… in public noble society, that is. But she is something of a folk figure to those who live on the coast, and they call her the arh’avar, the water-duke. She scandalises, to be sure— she has a wife stowed away in Solunee-over-the-Water, so it’s said— but many of the avarsin pay her huge sums to see their shipments safely across the Chadavean Sea, to smuggle valuables, or sometimes even to conduct raids on rivals’ ships. It has long been suspected that her father pays her great sums to feed him information and safeguard his ships. The Great Avar, we suspect, would not be as rich as he is without Shaleän Sevraseched. So her acknowledgement was generally considered to be long overdue, and we do agree with the Zhasan— we think he means efficiency, and personal investment, in his sending of her.”

    (The Great Avar's definition of a 'trade negotiator' is possibly a little loose... so it's just as well that Shaleän is only sort of meant to be doing that.)

    Summary

    three other ways in which it did NOT happen... but harrowhark nonagesimus— and/or palamedes sextus— would probably have preferred it, if it had.

    (first— a joust, a lady's favour, and a knighthood; second— a play, the holy roman emperor, and a sly matchmaking ploy; third— a social call, bonnets, and a card-party)

    (or: tlt, after thomas malory, william shakespeare, and jane austen)
