‘They must tell tales of my ancestors in the Ersyr,’ Sabran said. ‘Of the Damsel, especially.’ ‘Yes, madam. She is remembered in the South as the most rightwise and selfless woman of her time.’ Cleolind Onjenyu was also remembered in the South as the greatest warrior of her time, but the Inysh would never believe that. They believed that she had needed to be saved. To Ead, Cleolind was not the Damsel. She was the Mother.
