The parallels between the story told to Gen in the third book and what was going on in the book took me a long pickin' time to tease out, and I'm still not sure I have it solidly together. Also, that snippet of conversation from QoA: "Eugenides" - "My Queen?" "Only for that." "My Queen." I didn't understand that at _all_ until I read the explanation here. It's most definitely one of my favorite bits, now.
