All the scheming finally comes to a head, and Navier finally agrees to marry Heinrey. She is straightforward with him that this is a marriage of convenience, but he doesn’t care about her reasoning. At last, the moment from volume one is upon us, and Navier strides into the hearing in front of Sovieshu and Rashta with her head held high. Before Sovieshu has a chance to ask his wife for a divorce, as he plans to do, Navier asks him for one, and for the permission to immediately remarry. Sovieshu is beside himself, and immediately seeks the guidance of the clergy, but no one can find any reason to stop Navier from remarrying.
Even though we know from the beginning this moment was going to happen, we weren't given full details, and it’s still such a sweet build up and satisfying payoff now that it has happened. The creative team did a fantastic job of building the narrative suspense throughout to still keep Duke Ergi in contention as the one she was remarrying, but more readers are probably going to be happy that she is going off with King Heinrey. Navier isn't sure how she feels about Heinrey and there's still some distrust and some politicking going on, but I still can't wait for volume 7 to come out to see how she settles in within her new kingdom, and what the fallout is going to be in the Empire now that all of this has shaken out.
