queensthiefI have one semi-small question about KoA...
When everyone is trying to keep Gen in bed, Phresine tells Gen a story to keep him quite.
First, why does Gen look uncomfortable when she talks about the goddess keeping a close watch on Klimum to make sure he doesn't break his promise (pg 278)?
Second, when Gen interupts again, when Gerothenes is trying to stop Klimun from lying, why is he so unhappy (pg 282)?
Third, does Presine change the ending there?
Fourth, someone calls Gen Basileus in a gesture of respect (I forget where). Does that have anything to do with the king in the story's name being Klimun, Basileus of Kathodicia (pg 283)? Does it mean they think he is a peacebringer?
And fifth, it feels like there is some obvious symbolic meaning in the story that I am missing. Can someone explain the obvious to me?
Oops, I had ment for this to be shorter. Oh well.
