What else would it be?

“Can we talk about his divinity?” Bade asked, taking the opportunity.  “Last night changed so many things for me, and then this morning it all sort of clicked, and - - he really is a god, isn’t he?”

            Smiling, humoring him, Orinakin guided him into a small office and closed the door.  “Yes, he is.”

            “He made my water bubble!”  It had been so, so new, so surprising, so stunning.  “He made my water bubble, and he changed the temperature in the room, and he made the candlelight rise and fall.  And the sunrise, he made the sun rise, Orinakin, he - - it was gorgeous, it was glorious, it was so powerful.  It felt holy, it felt like a religious experience, it looked like - - that happens every morning?  He does that every morning?”

            “Every morning,” Orinakin agreed.  “And every evening.”

I agree that was one of the most powwerful things about this chapter, that Bade now believes in Kudorin's divinity.  It makes my  when Orinakin and Bade talk, reading it now, after I know where the story is going just makes my heart warm.  For the time Bade spends with Kudorin is interesting it is Bades time with orinakin where he is just himself and Orinakins delight with Bade is so heart warming.

I enjoyed being in Selorin's courtroom and getting to know the Anorian justice system and with Rini learning a bit about the workings of stting up an Anorian festival.

I really chuckled here:

            “Remin can make an entire plate of food disappear in ten seconds,” Orinakin said.  “I’d call that a very special skill.  Especially in comparison with how slowly Kudorin eats.”

            “He makes dining a very…sensual experience,” Bade admitted with a blush.

            “We’ve convinced him to moan less at formal dinners,” Orinakin said.  “It tends to distract his guests.”
