Summary
In a world where Tortall is ruled by Roger of Conté, the King Who Defeated Death, one girl grows up with three names and grows into one more.
Within the court of Jonathan of Conté, contested king of Tortall and Prince Consort of Sarain, she is known as Alianne of Meron. In her mother's fierce whispers describing a foreign world, her name is Alianne of Trebond and Olau. Amongst the sand and scrub of the Great Southern Desert, where she and her brother grow up hunted by the false king's men, she is Alya bint Jirjis abu-Saqr Al Bazhir. And when she is fourteen, she becomes Alysa of Mudcreek and leaves every home she has ever known for Roger of Conté's palace.

Summary
I’d heard that are-you-leaving-me? wobble in dozens of voices over the years; the answer was nearly always yes. But that wasn’t all; Olivia was worried about me, bless her, a High Vor lady suddenly deprived of my home and visible means of support. What was left of my own dowry was enough for me to live modestly for several years, but modesty had never been one of my virtues, as Olivia knew. In fact almost all that money had already been spent, or good as.
“We have to talk,” I said.
Lady Donna has a proposal for Olivia.
