More information. She starts to think in hindsight. Telling herself that she should have kissed Taryn's cheek or not trusted the Ghost. Eventually, a merman enters the room, he tells Jude that he will get her ready to see Queen Orlagh and that she should not give him any trouble or he'll knock her out.
They dress her and lead her to a banquet room that has no ceiling. Queen Orlagh is seated at the end of the table, Jude remarks on how regal she looks and how Queen Orlagh has been in charge for longer than a whole generation of mortals. Nicasia sits next to her and Balekin at the opposite end of the table. After that, Nicasia leads Jude to a cave.
Inside of it is a cage. It is full of air and once she is in, Jude has to cough up water. Nicasia tries to glamours Jude into thinking the cage was a beautiful bedroom with a comfortable bed and tea. The tea is really a cup of saltwater. Jude realizes that if she drank the saltwater, she would quickly become dehydrated. The sea Folk question Jude on Madoc and her parent's murder. She pretends to be full and be drunk when they tell her and allow them to hit her without crying.
Jude eventually wonders if she will break. If there is a limit to what the Folk can do before she fights back. There are cages in the water, cages with mortals. The drowned ones. Jude thinks that she sees the mortal servant she tried to save and who tried to drown themselves instead. Balekin asks Jude why Cardan stole 'his' crown.
Jude tells him that she doesn't know, Balekin then pushes her to guess why. Jude confesses that Cardan didn't seem to be disciplined. That he did what he wanted all the time. Balekin then says that Cardan did want Eldred's attention, which Jude replies that he might want to be High King for or to spite Eldred. Balekin then questions Jude on who is better suited to be king which Jude lies easily, saying that he is. Balekin inquires her if she would go to Cardan and stab him 'till his blood ran out.
When she does, he then requests that she kiss him like how she would Cardan. Cardan made a bargain for Jude. Jude ponders over all the commands she gave him and how he didn't have to get her back. Balekin glamours Jude to repeat her love and loyalty to them and her plan to murder Cardan.
He visits her in the cave and tells her that she will meet him in Hollow Hall when she can. Should he need her, he would drop a red cloth in her path and expect her to come quickly. He also wants Jude to get Cardan to trust her and then get him alone to kill him.
Balekin also makes Jude promise to steer clear of charms. Including rowan and bundles of oak. The merfolk get Jude ready to go back to land. Leading a procession. Jude is seated on a turtle. When they reach the surface, Cardan is seated on a grey steed. The trees are full of archers and knights. Cardan immediately looks at Jude. Queen Orlagh announces that since Cardan paid her price, he can have Jude back.
She also announces that Balekin is their ambassador. Jude is later lead to Madoc's house despite her wishes. There Tatterfell helps Jude into a nightgown and gives her food. Jude falls asleep on the rug. Jude wakes up to Taryn shaking her. Taryn informs her that Tarrerfell thought Jude had a mortal sickness and that is why she called Taryn over. Taryn reveals that Jude has been gone for a month. Taryn helps Jude to get dressed and feed.
Just before Taryn is ready to leave, Taryn gives Jude a hunting knife and a charm. She then makes Jude promise not to do anything rash. Jude then falls asleep with her hand on the knife.
Jude wakes to arguing. She stumbles out of her room and finds Dulcamara. Jude at first thinks it Lord Roiben calling in his favor. Dulcamara remarks on where Cardan's loyalties lay. When Jude asks her what she means, Dulcamara tells her that Cardan allowed the Undersea to attack the Court of Termites and has forbidden them from attacking back.
Lord Roiben's consort, Kaye, was hurt badly. Jude then responds by saying that Elfhame will send them knights as an apology, Dulcamara tells her that Balekin held a grudge against the Court of Termites and has now set a target on them. Dulcamara then informs Jude that she should kill Balekin, even if it means going to war. She wakes and heads to Cardan's current chambers, which are underground. Jude climbs a hill and then enters the brugh. Cardan is sleeping but wakes when Jude places her hand over his mouth.
At first, he fights against her, but then relaxes when he realizes who it is. Jude tells Cardan that Balekin sent her to kill Cardan.
Cardan grabs Jude and pulls her onto the bed beside him. Jude warns Cardan that Balekin and Orlagh are plotting his death, he asks her why he woke in the first place. She replies that she is hard to control. When she questions Cardan on allowing Madoc to bar her from coming to see him, Cardan states that Madoc told him Jude was resting.
Jude then further questions Cardan on the price Cardan paid to get her back, Cardan tells her that Queen Orlagh, Nicasia, and Balekin should believe Jude is important to him than them thinking they can do anything to her and not have consequences. Cardan then confesses that he wasn't nice to many people, and that he wasn't sure if he wanted Jude or wanted her gone, but that when she was gone he hated himself.
They reveal that they had been tracking Jude and saw her leave Balekin's house. They indicate that Jude is going to kill Cardan. Jude denies it and the Roach points out Jude isn't wearing any charms. He doesn't know she has Dain's geas. The Roach then orders Jude to empty her pockets and when she gets to the vial, interrogated her about it. She explains that Balekin tried to glamour her to kill Cardan so he could get Grimsen to create another crown for Elfhame.
To be safe, they have Cardan attempt to glamour Jude, he tried to get her to crawl to him and when she doesn't move they believe that she really can't be charmed. Jude then in return asks why she should trust the Bomb and the Roach as the Ghost betrayed her. They reply that they didn't know what was going on. They tell Jude that it was the Ghost that activated explosions that destroyed the Court of Shadows entrance along with part of the castle.
They also admit that they don't know where he is. Jude and the Roach consider killing Balekin, but Cardan tells them they can't as he is the ambassador for the Undersea. Cardan reveals that he had researched the history of the land and the sea. He tells Jude that Queen Orlagh is hoping for a new leader that she can control. Jude goes to the Mandrake Market in search of something to wear to the ball. There she finds a mask of an unsmiling human face and decides to get it.
The shopkeeper gives it to her in exchange for if the High King compliments Jude, she'll allow the shopkeeper to make him one. Jude agrees and the shopkeeper makes alternations to the mask and it looks more like Taryn. After that, Jude gets lost and passes Mother Marrow. Mother Marrow invites her to sit and have soup which Jude accepts hesitantly.
Mother Marrow asks Jude what she was looking for and Jude answers that she was looking for a dress. Jude drinks the soup and it reminds her of her early mortal childhood.
In his chambers, Cardan sits down on the couch and Jude gives him a glass of water to flush him out. Cardan pukes and the Bomb appears. She gives him clay that will draw out the toxins in the poison.
The Bomb informs Jude that Balekin asks for the crown in return for the antidote. Cardan could draw strength from the land, but he doesn't know how to and he is weak. Jude decides to get the antidote but doesn't take the crown. Jude meets Balekin in the garden, there she tricks Balekin into giving her a mouthful which she spits into the clean poison container. Balekin then challenges Jude to a duel, she stabs him in the neck as he surrenders. Killing Balekin. Jude comes back to the room and there Cardan admits that Taryn had been in the room pretending to be Jude to get Cardan to give Madoc half the army and free him from his oaths to the crown.
Cardan is later brought back to his own chambers so that he can rest, but he sends for Jude. There he proposes that she marries him in exchange for her to release him from his vow of obedience.
Jude agrees though Balekin's murder haunts her. After they trade vows, Jude and Cardan then go to sleep together. When she wakes up, she is in woods she doesn't recognize, covered in heavy blankets with Oriana, who thinks Jude is Taryn. Oriana kindly explains why Madoc took her away from court.
Jude asks what happened to Cardan, and Oriana tells her that Madoc was unable to get to him, and Jude is secretly relieved. Jude weighs all her options and thinks about the letters Cardan claims to have sent her, and how he was treating the topic of her exile as a joke.
Later on, Madoc joins them in the carriage and tells Jude that three days have passed Madoc also thinks that Jude is Taryn. He also tells her how he lost half of his knights; Cardan was fighting hard to keep her.
They arrive at the Court of Teeth, and Oriana helps Jude get settled in their tent. Jude washes her face and changes her clothes, Jude walks around camp and decides to stay so that she can learn about Madoc's plans and trade the information for the end of her exile.
Jude is horrified by how the young Queen has been bridled by her parents. No one pays Jude much attention, not thinking she is important because she is mortal.
Grimsen is also present, and Jude talks to him, flattering him so that he will tell her details about Madoc's plans. Grimsen is pleased by Jude's flattery and invites her to visit his forge the following day. Jude is frustrated because she wanted the information right away. The next day Jude wakes up and decides that she would escape that very same day. Oriana suggests that she goes foraging in the woods instead of doing needlepoint with the Court ladies. Jude agrees and as she begins to leave, Oriana warns her against visiting Grimsen.
Jude goes to the woods, where she can finally relax and think through her options. She hikes through the woods until she is on high enough ground that she can see the whole camp. There she can see the forge, the pavilions, and the hub of activity. She also spots a cave far away from camp, at the base of the mountain; two guards are guarding it. Jude goes to visit Grimsen, asking to see his work. He is pleased that she is interested and invites her inside. Jude then learns that Grimsen is rather annoyed at Madoc because he doesn't appreciate the work that Grimsen is doing.
Jude uses this to her advantage and manages to get Grimsen to tell her how he curses everything that he makes; the Blood Crown, the earrings that Jude is wearing, even the gift that Grimsen gave to Cardan when he came back to court.
This causes Jude to be angry, but she hides it for the sake of her facade and asks if she can visit him again tomorrow. Grimsen agrees. Jude goes back to the woods to actually do some foraging.
She takes her pent-up anger out on the berries, wood, mushrooms, and rocks. When she is calmed, she goes back to camp where Madoc spots her and invites her to sit with him.
Jude obviously still posing as Taryn , converses with Madoc; he tells her he thinks he can win against Cardan and that he will do it via a duel for love and duty.
Jude is perplexed, and Madoc explains that there is a prophecy stating that Cardan would be a bad king, that this prophecy hangs over Cardan's head, and that he thinks he can charm his way out of it. Jude proposes that they look into what she, Jude, did to control Cardan. Madoc replies that whatever power Jude had over Cardan was taken back by Cardan. He also mentions how he gave Jude many chances to help her family to which she refused.
Bad marriages. Madoc reveals that he knows it was Taryn who killed Locke. Jude asks Madoc why he killed their mother.
He answers by saying that he can control his battle instincts, but those instincts can stay long after the battle. After pausing, Madoc compliments Taryn in saying that their parent's death was the fire they were forged in and that in the blood none of them broke.
She hardened. He then guesses that that is why Taryn killed Locke. Jude is flustered and excuses herself by giving Oriana the basket of food. As Jude gets up to leave, Madoc makes Taryn a promise. He states that he won't forget her loyalty and placing her family first. He claims that when the war is over, she can request any reward and he'll make sure she gets it.
Jude feels jealous that it isn't her he makes the offer to. Jude plans on escaping that very night. Jude stays by Oriana's side when she prepares dinner, Madoc eats with his generals while the Court of Teeth keep to themselves.
Jude starts to scheme and has a plan when Oriana urges her to bed. Jude plans to steal a mount from a soldier near the cave. She then plans on navigating by the stars. Oriana remarks on how Jude looks cold and comforts her by saying they'll be home soon. When Oriana goes to bed, Jude puts a knife in one pocket and matches in the other. She then goes to bed and waits for Oriana to fall asleep. Once Oriana is, Jude slips out of the tent.
She is stopped by a knight. He asks where he should tell Madoc she is if he asks, Jude answers that she'll be using the woods as a bathroom. Jude stumbles to the cave. Once there, she finds three guards.
When she tries to lure a reindeer out, Jude hears a cry from the cave. It seems that Madoc is holding someone captive. Jude changes her plans and decides to drop into the cave entrance. When Jude drops, however, she drops with a thump. Alerting the guards. A guard walks by Jude, looking for whoever made the sound. When they don't see anyone, they move on. Jude moves down the cave and enters a new chamber, she finds the Ghost.
He is chained to plates on the ground and looks bruised. Jude instantly feels hatred towards the Ghost as he allowed the Undersea to take her and he destroyed the Court of Shadows. Jude asks the Ghost why betrayed them. He replies by reminding Jude that he was the one who poisoned Liriope. The Ghost goes on to explain that he was so ashamed he went to Locke and offered his name, true name, and protection.
If someone in faerie were to know your true name, they could control you better than with a vow. The Ghost confesses that Locke didn't ask for anything for a while, and then he asked for small things. Spying on people. He didn't think that Locke wanted danger, only mischief. Though the Ghost realized that Locke didn't want that when he ordered that the Ghost take Jude to the Tower and let her be taken.
When the Ghost tried to distance himself from Locke, knights found him leaving Insmire. He then finds out that Locke had given Madoc the Ghost's true name as a dowry from Taryn's hand and to have a seat at the table when Balekin came to power. Jude tries to get figure out how to get him out and the Ghost replies by saying that he'll show her how to kill him. When Jude protests, the Ghost asks her to remember what it was like before Prince Dain's geas.
How it felt to be powerless. He processes to tell her that "it is not life to always be under someone's control Jude decides to postpone her escape and asks the Ghost how to open his chains. The Ghost answers that Grimsen has the key. Jude returns to her tent and finds that Oriana is awake. She questions Jude about where she was and Jude tries to lie, but Oriana already knows that she is not Taryn.
Jude pleads with Oriana to help her get away. When Oriana says that Madoc will figure out that she helped Jude escape, Jude offers that she writes Vivi a letter. They proceed to talk about Lady Asha and her being back. Oriana later tells Jude that her mother was friends with Lady Asha, to which Jude replies that she didn't know Oriana know her mom. Oriana reveals that due to a prophecy, Eldred didn't much like Lady Asha. Oriana explains that Cardan was born under an 'ill-favored star'.
Jude comments that she knew Lady Asha didn't take care of Cardan much. Oriana replies that he was adored and fed well, but then forgotten. Soon after, Oriana sends an owl with Jude's letter. In bed, Jude plans to steal the key from Grimsen and then escape with the Ghost. She plans on using what she knows about Madoc's intent to bargain with Cardan to end her exile and Taryn's inquest.
The next morning Oriana keeps Jude at her side, not trusting her to be alone. Oriana has Jude take food to Madoc as he asked for her specifically. When she enters, Madoc and his generals are moving model ships on a map of Elfhame.
Jude sneaks a glance at it. She then returns to Oriana and Oriana informs her that she will be leaving the next day. She tells her that Vivi replied and would be there at dawn to pick her up with friends. Oriana asks Jude to leave a note for Madoc and to make it seem convincing.
They sneak out of the tent, creeping to the forge. The Roach questions Jude on if she's seen the key. Jude tells him it's a crystal one and that it is large.
She doesn't know exactly what it looks since it was being crafted when she last saw it. While they're getting the key, a trap springs open. Metal needles hurl at them and sound an alarm. Cardan moves in front of Jude. Using his invincible clock Mother Marrow gave him to protect Jude. The Roach was not so lucky.
He was hit and the needles were poisoned with deathsweet-a type of poison. Cardan pleads with Jude to abandon the Ghost and ride back with him to Elfhame. Jude refuses. She points out that Vivi and her friends, possibly Taryn and Heather, won't know she left and they'll be caught. Cardan gives her his cloak and returns to Elfhame. Jude heads for the cave. She lied to Cardan when she said she'd go to Vivi and the others.
There, where the Ghost was, is Madoc. Sword in hand and dressed in his armor. Madoc admits that he didn't realize it was Jude when he should have. That he hadn't really been looking. Jude asks him where the Ghost is. Madoc reveals that the Ghost's true name is Garrett and that she won't stop him in time. Making Jude think Madco sent the Ghost after someone. When Jude asks whom the Ghost is going after, Madoc mocks her with her loyalty to Cardan. Calling Cardan her weakness. Madoc demands Jude surrender to him.
She refuses and runs off into the snowy forest. Jude runs into the woods, trying to lose him. He doesn't let up. Jude tries to stab him with her knives but hits the armor he is wearing. Madoc slaps Jude and she falls onto the snow. He then swings his blade at Jude, making her block. He tries to wear her down. He grabs the clock and stabs her side. She slips and falls to her knees, bleeding out. She stays kneeling, waiting for him to kill her, as she thought he would.
Madoc raises his sword but pauses. Three arrows fly at him. Striking his sword arm. Vivi, Taryn, and Grima Mog appear. Madoc offers to bring Jude to his camp, she refuses.
He leaves, telling her she will die. Jude informs Vivi and Taryn that they need to sew her up. She instructs them to pack leaves and dirt into the wound. She remembers being told that the High King can draw strength from the land. She, however, leaves things out when telling them. Vivi reveals to Taryn that Jude married Cardan.
Jude asks Taryn to be the one to stitch her as Taryn has the best needlework. They sew her. Vivi, Taryn, and Gima Mog seem in awe when it is done. When Jude goes to stand up, she sees that white flowers are dotting the cape Gima Mog set down for Jude. Baphen once told her that when the High King's blood falls, things grow.
Jude is stunned for a moment, half believing that she was a fake queen. She then remembers that she needs to go to the palace, assuming the Ghost is going to kill Cardan.
She gets onto a ragwort pony despite her sister's protests. When Jude arrives at Elfhame, she contemplates charging in and demanding to see Cardan, she fears, though, that a knight might kill her and then carry her message. Jude heads for Madoc's abandoned stronghold that contains Vivi and Taryn's old clothes. There she changes into a pair of pants, a jacket, and a black scarf.
She hopes to be unrecognizable. Jude writes a note that there will be an assassination attempt and takes a lute. She exits the stronghold and keeps close to a group of musicians.
A fae player, Edir, compliments Jude on the lute. She offers to give it to him if he gives her note to a member of the Living Court. Jude climbs into a rafter, sitting on the part that curves into the ceiling. There she strings some bows and looks for the Ghost.
She worries for a moment if she'll become like Madoc. Jude watches as Cardan enters and is handed a note, her note, he waves it off, however. She then notices a flicker of movement. The Bomb. The Bomb sees Jude and thinks she is the assassin. The Bomb aims her bow at Jude. In the same moment, Jude realizes that Madoc never sent the Ghost to kill Cardan, it was a trap to get her killed. The Bomb shoots and Jude dodges, but it hits her foot and she falls off the rafters.
Onto a banquet table. People surround her. They conclude that Jude broke her exile to kill the High King. When Cardan stalks near, looking at her in fury, she informs him that she lost his clock. He calls her a dirty mortal liar and Randalin orders that Jude be chained. Just as a guard grabs her hand, Cardan orders that no one touches her. For a long minute, no one says anything. Randalin asks why and Cardan reveals that Jude is the High Queen and definitely not in exile.
As the crowd cries out, Jude passes out. Cardan orders Jude to walk with him, telling her that the Living Council is anxious to speak with her.
Jude walks with Cardan, asking him how the Roach is. Cardan replies that the Bomb has not found a way to wake him. Cardan notifies Jude that Madoc sent a letter to him, blaming the supposed death of Jude on him.
Cardan also tells Jude that Madoc went to the lower courts and urged them to go to Elfhame and witness him taking defiance against the crown. That is why the Living Council wishes to speak with Jude, to ask her all she knows about Madoc's camp. However, she pauses him, saying that the Living Cort can wait. Cardan and her need to talk. Jude says to him that he should just straight up tell her what he is planning, what he is holding over her head. She tells him to make his threat to her.
Cardan then agrees that they need to talk. They head to the rose garden. There Cardan mentions to Jude that he knew it wasn't her trying to kill him, as the note was in her handwriting.
She replies that she thought Madoc had ordered the Ghost to kill him. Cardan confesses that it was scary to watch Jude fall. He was unused to being afraid for her. Jude questions Cardan on the said 'messages' that he had told her about when she had been dressed like Taryn and he'd taken her to her chambers. Cardan gives her a mocking smile, tells her that it was mostly pleading for her to come back.
Jude demands Cardan to stop playing games, that he sent her to exile. Cardan reminds her that at one point she had said that it was a trick. He asks if she meant marring her, making her his queen, and then sending her to the mortal world. Jude confirms that.
Cardan points out that tricking people is what she does. She tricked Madoc, Balekin, Orlagh, and him. Cardan then admits that he thought she'd admire him for being able to trick her. Since Jude murdered Balekin, Cardan has to make a plan hasty. He sent her to exile and thought that when she understood the riddle, he'd have made a treaty with the Undersea already. He reveals that since it said, pardoned by the crown , the King of Faerie or the Queen could have pardoned her.
Meaning Jude could have come back at any point. Jude pauses and then and starts to walk away. Cardan runs after her and grabs her arm, she slaps him. Cardan explains that he didn't think he would hurt Jude or that he could hurt her.
He didn't think she'd be afraid of him, but when she asked him if he enjoyed it. Cardan paused. Jude admits that Cardan does scare her. She also agrees that sending her to exile was a right-side-up idea. Cardan replies that he understood what she thought, and tells her that he does trust her. Cardan tells Jude of the prophecy looming over him. When she does date again, the actress has said she hopes to date "not necessarily somebody in the industry. Until I saw this.
