!! Thelesis de Mornay
The former King's Poet to Ysandre's grandfather, King Ganelon, now Queen's Poet to Queen Ysandre. Though she is considered plain in Terre D'Ange, she has a beautiful voice and her poetry is famed throughout the kingdom.

!! Tropes applying to Thelesis de Mornay:

* TheConfidante: To the Dauphine Ysandre.
* TheExile: At some point in her life she was exiled to Alba, for reasons unknown. It was there she wrote her famous poem ''The Exile's Lament''. It is because of her exile in Alba that she is trusted with Ysandre's and Delaunay's secret plan to bring Drustan onto D'Angeline soil so Ysandre can marry him.

%%* [[MrExposition Mrs Exposition]]

* ThePowerOfTrust: Thelesis is so trusted by Ysandre and House Courcel that none of the palace guards bother checking her for weapons. As the Dauphine's confidante and the King's (later Queen's) Poet, she is above suspicion.
