* The revelations about Attolia Irene's past and ascent to the throne, and her reaction when Eugenides hypothetically answers if she cares what Eddis does to her country so long as she gets to stay on the throne and well-fed. Irene was a minor princess who wasn't raised to rule and was expected to become a silent queen, but beneath her mask she truly ''cared'' about her country and was willing to risk everything to keep its people from being exploited by a bad king.
* Attolia and Eddis' conversation near the end. Attolia, after having resented Eddis for years, admits that she ''does'' like her. Eddis also acknowledges that she has no right to look down on Attolia for being a tyrant because it was all necessary to keep her country from collapsing.

* Costis slamming the door to keep the attendants from gawking at Eugenides and Attolia's tender embrace. He's willing to provoke a fight with baronial sons of the highest standing to shield them.
* Eugenides, knowing that Relius will take a long time to believe that his pardon isn't a cruel trick, makes sure to show him that the Queen signed it and continues visiting him in the infirmary every night to chat and keep away the nightmares.
* During his nightly chats with Relius, Eugenides constantly refers to the magus of Sounis to back up his opinions, showing how much respect he still has for him.
