* JerkassHasAPoint: For as needlessly cruel as Boscha is, she does have a point that Luz's inability to keep her royal status a secret has resulting in the Royal Guard nearly killing various other characters in order to make up for her mistakes.

!!Tropes That Appear In This Chapter:
* BerserkButton: Both Luz and Boscha display one in regards to insulting their parentage. Specifically, trying to imply that there's anything wrong with their parents for having married outside of their race, with them coming to blows within seconds of meeting each other when Boscha tries to insult her this way and Luz retaliates.
* MundaneObjectAmazement: Subverted. At first, it appears that Boscha is drawn to Eda's stall because of this, only to reveal that unlike most witches, she's fully aware of the actual uses of all the human items the woman sells. She correctly identifies what Eda calls a set of drinking glasses as high-quality chemistry set before Luz can correct Eda herself.
