got her coronation. She also knew that Queen Attolia was very jeaolus of her because Queen Attolia did not have people to be believed, even Queen Attolia
was jealous of her because Queen Eddis had her lovely thief, Eugenides. “I can’t. Sounis is too strong. Eddis and Attolia together might beat him,
but Attolia won’t have to do with Eddis. She hates me too much, and she’s too much concerned trying to keep a grip on her country.”
“She took me aside and gave me a lot of advice on how to hold on to the throne”
“She’s hated me for not taking her advice and for having a country I didn’t need to. And she’s hated me because I have you, Eugenides, to keep

Queen Attolia is always jealous of Queen Eddis because she has the thief, Eugenides. Queen Eddis has been allowed to handle and direct her army herself at
war. She has travelled everywhere she wants, but Queen Attolia just sits in her palace. Queen Eddis has loyal people around her, and they are good in serving
her. She can fight her own battles if she chooses. Queen Attolia also says to herself that she has always envied Queen Eddis. It begins since Queen Eddis
learns to ride a pony, uses a sword with her male cousins, hunts at the summer retreat. Meanwhile, Queen Attolia is dressing in velvets that stifled her even in the
winter, learning to ape the costume, learning to salute just so when entering the main temple. Queen Attolia is only sitting when Queen Eddis hunts in the winter.
“I always envied Eddis,” she said to herself as she stood up to pace. It was true. Eddis and she had both been the younger sisters of crown princes, but
always it seemed to Attolia that Eddis was running wild in the mountains while she was carefully kept and groomed in the king’s palace of Attolia.
