What The Montgomeray Patriarch Said

As Kyran recalled this small but probably very important detail, his expression turned grim.

When he guessed that his predecessor might have been married to the Queen of the Faes, he felt reluctant to meet her, even when he initially asked Stella if it was possible.

He was not ready to meet his predecessor's possible old flame, especially when those people who knew his predecessor seemed to see them as one person— so far, that had been the case with the other Sovereigns and not a Stella-only case.

However, even if Kyran felt this way, he knew he would have to meet her. That had been Silas's task: make contact with the leaders of the Spirits. Eventually, Kyran would have to meet their Queen.
