I think if he makes his feelings towards them too obvious in public then somebody will find a way of replacing them by saying they’re not doing their job properly. I felt so sorry for Maia because he does seem to have latched onto the two as friends and so with that in mind I think the advice was good – particularly if he wants to keep the two of them close. I think that the scene with Cala giving Maia advice was very touching. How do you feel about these scenes, and the conversations between them? Are they being too harsh and/or cynical, or is Maia simply being too naive? She seems alarmed at the idea that Maia might go against society and tradition by refusing to bargain for a marriage for her. At this point – I suspect everyone (almost).Ĭala and Vedero both have some hard but pragmatic advice for Maia here: Cala’s concern is for the emperor being seen to be weak for treating his nohecharei as equals when their job is to protect him and Vedero’s situation is different but her concern is basically the same as Cala’s. I mean she seemed absolutely furious didn’t she? Perhaps she’s hiding something or maybe she just really doesn’t like Maia and is all too eager to pounce on anything he does and find fault with it. I don’t really understand what that was all about tbh. Do you buy that as her reasoning? Or do you think she was making a scene for another reason? So much political muck! Let’s start with Princess Sheveän, who seemed so very outraged at the idea of the late emperor’s body being ‘desecrated’. so without further ado – to the q&a and don’t spare the horses: The questions will be posted weekly in a Goodreads group page, and will also be tweeted out weekly from the account using the hashtag #TheGoblinEmperor, as well as the standard #wyrdandwonder tag.
