Summary
Most people like her didn’t live so close to the sea.
She didn’t know if it was the same elsewhere, but here, the sea called. Those who could hear it moved to midtown, cloaked in the solid stone hewn from cliffside far above the seaspray. Every year, a few of the sea-called went over the cliffs. Every year, a few more of the sea-called moved away. Outside this place, she’d heard, water was water and nothing more. Salt tasted bitter, not sweet.

Summary
In which Suz has to make six shirts out of nettles for her terrible siblings who got themselves turned into swans. It's been a long six years and not nearly enough of the terrible horny kings who want to marry her know sign language — the curse forbade speaking aloud, not communication. Or:

Summary
But wasn’t she a priestess? they had all asked. Didn’t she know? Hadn’t she read? Of all people, surely, she should have understood what Delphi told them all.
Cassandra knew herself. She had not acted in excess. There was a difference in desperation. In hope, in wanting, in calculations being spun into flimsy thread. She hadn’t known her flax was rotting. She hadn’t known her careful spinning and bloody fingers would all be for nothing.
