    Summary

    “You expect me to bind myself to her?” The words escaped sharper than any blade she ever trained with, their edges ringing in the vaulted chamber.
    The king did not flinch. He regarded her the way one examines a chess piece, important, yes, but still movable. “The alliance is necessary, Moiraine.”
    “Must it be that woman?” she finally asked, the question colored with a crack of exhausted disbelief, almost petulant, as though she were asking why winter must come every year.
    “She is a princess from a powerful kingdom, just as you are,” he shot back.
    Or: Princess Moiraine Damodred, Heir to the Sun Throne, is arranged to marry Princess Lanfear of V’saine, a bold woman that loves chaos (and testing Moraine’s composure at every turn). What begins as a political alliance forged in cold necessity becomes a volatile game of pride, power, and unwilling fascination.
