She nodded. "There are actual seasons there, and flowers grow more easily. It doesn't snow year-round."
"The artist deals with what cannot be said in words. The artist whose medium is fiction does this in words. The novelist says in words what cannot be said in words." --Ursula K. Le Guin
“True,” Ky agreed. So apparently nobles had normal human emotions. Huh. How odd.

"If you could live somewhere other than Austraka, where would you live?"

“Oh… uh…” what a startling question. And dangerous. She couldn’t very well risk preying upon Lady Constance’s generosity. “I’m pretty happy everywhere, ma’am. Not too picky.”

She shrugged. "I'm just interested; you've been plenty of places, right?"

“I have… I feel like each place has its own benefits and draw backs… I don’t much like the East just for the sheer instability. Maybe Totalissa? I didn’t mind there and I’d want to stay with Tadaaki… honestly, I’ll probably just stick with him regardless of where he is. He’s what matters to me, not the place.”

"Totalissa is a very nice place," she agreed. "Lots of desert, though..."

“I’m used to the heat.” Ky shrugged. Much better than this horrific cold. She rubbed her neck absently. “I guess the first few weeks of summer kind of hurt, though. I always get blisters.”

"You burn up, do you?" She smiled. "You've at least got a bit of a tan; we Northerners turn positively crispy."

Ky grinned. “The later the season the darker the tan, thankfully. Stops hurting once you get a little brown… I kind of envy Tadaaki for that,” she said thoughtfully. “People treat him terribly and it makes me angry and I don’t envy that part. But the sun isn’t as mean to him.”

She tutted. "People ought to respect each other. It's ridiculous."

“It really is,” Ky agreed firmly, nodding. “You can’t tell anything at all about him just from looking at him other than he’s safe…r… from the sun. Maybe they’re all jealous.”

"There's deep-seated prejudice," she sighed. "Without a doubt. I expect Ewan knows more of that history than I do but it stems from the Northerners taking up the slave trade from the East."

Ky nodded. She knew that much. “I’m just speculating where the bias comes from. It isn’t innate.”

May you never steal, lie, or cheat. But if you must steal, then steal away my sorrows. And if you must lie, then lie with me all the nights of your life. And if you must cheat, then please, cheat death. — An Unknown Bride, Leap Year
