The prosperous but landlocked Western empire has enjoyed stable relations with its coastal neighbor Whitemond, which has granted port access for trade. Yet subtle signs of strain have emerged.
At a tense meeting, the Duke questions why Whitemond now objects to the longstanding arrangement. That is the reason why fans of the series are really excited to find out what is going to happen next time in Her Mountain, Her Ocean Chapter 15.
The Crown Prince suggests looking inward at potential dissatisfaction among their own nobility. He cautions against suspicion of the loyal Marquis Catron, whose lands border Whitemond. Still, whispers swirl about the Marquis withholding tithes and taxes.
As tempers flare, the Princess unexpectedly erupts with indignation. Years of bitten tongues, she exclaims, while the emperor pursued vain conquests abroad and ignored affairs of state.
Ashamed, her father apologizes for his neglect and self-absorption. He pledges to forge an understanding with Whitemond through dialogue, not coercion or force.
Recap and Review
As Shurielle’s vision clears, more puzzles emerge. The ornate ceiling and palatial decor seem oddly dated, not matching the Duke’s ostentatious tastes.
Peering outside, she sees not the capital’s skyline but rolling, unfamiliar hills. The locked window confirms her suspicion – this is no guest room but a gilded cage.
Venturing through silent halls, Shurielle finds walls adorned with portraits of nobles in unfashionable clothes.
One stern patriarch catches her eye…could it be the infamous Baron Ravenglass, who vanished over a century ago? A chill runs down Shurielle’s spine. Where has the Duke brought her, and to what end?
Turning a corner, she hears a whimper. In a small chamber, a boy cowers, dressed in livery from another age.
As he lifts his head, Shurielle gasps – could it be the stableboy Philippe who died in childhood? Fear gives way to determination.
Shurielle weighs her next steps carefully, not fully trusting the solicitous butler and maid. Their deferential manners seem antiquated, like actors in a costume drama. She plays along, hoping to gather more clues.
Over an exquisite multi-course dinner, she attempts gentle prods about the “official business” detaining His Majesty.
The servants smile blandly, neither confirming nor denying any details. It dawns on Shurielle that they have been well-schooled to indulge her without revealing anything of substance.
Retiring to the ornate guest suite, she breathes deeply to quell her frustration. The room brims with books, silk robes, and perfumes – clearly, someone intends to keep her distracted and docile. But she must keep sharp; this gilded respite remains a prison.
Spoilers and Expectations
Shurielle awakes with a start to find the Duke, shrouded in shadow, at her bedside. Fear courses through her before his softly spoken words register – he makes no menacing move, merely gazing with tired resignation. This is no lustful visit in the night.
In the candle’s dim glow, she sees the contours of an aged face, lines etched by decisions heavy with consequence. He speaks of duty to empire, a kingdom plagued by predators at its borders. There is a weariness here – the mantle of power ill-fitting upon his shoulders.
When he tells Shurielle she may steer their Dominion toward peace, she detects no deception. Yet, can she trust the motivations of a man so obsessed with legacy?
As the wax drips low, he departs with a melancholy nod. She ponders as sleep retakes her – what is his real endgame? Her mind churns with more questions than answers, caught in eddies ever more convoluted.
