Setting: Old castle with broken stained glass replaced by clear windows, a large throne with a window behind it for a halo effect.
Lady Sarenna's Role: Currently ruling Cartelencia in the absence of the Baron and Lady Irena, who are on Solarum for Corrin's birth celebration. Elias Adler is present as Lady Sarenna’s council.
Participants: High Priest of Cartelencia (in robes of white and green) and a man from the Brotherhood of Sattan (bald, tattooed scalp, ponytail, Buddhist monk robes). They appear to despise each other.
Dispute: The high priest wants to pray openly to "The Great Mother," while the Brotherhood member insists on following the Orange Catholic Bible.
High priest: Claims revolutionaries caused poor festival turnout and offers protection with weapons.
The Brotherhood member: Reminds the Lady that providing weapons to religious forces is illegal.
Lady Sarenna's Decision: Sends the high priest to House Stadt for "correction."
Outcome: The House gains favour with the Brotherhood of Sattan but lowers public opinion.
Objective: Gather resources, wealth, and workers for a spaceport in Cartelencia.
Cerinnian Sea: Uses Nebulotters (bioluminescent otters) to locate subterranean cities, trades for resources, and gains an additional vehicle for transport.
Shaimal Archipelago: Tradesman secures workers but half are later taken by a tax enforcer as a bribe.
Do-Yoon Yi: Asks Lady Sarenna about the whereabouts of criminals Doug and Rosa, who disrupted a House Eigenshaw mission.
Solon's Confession: Reveals everything about Doug and Rosa. Lady Sarenna agrees to hunt them down to aid House Eigenshaw.
Journey: Travels through hostile seas with pirates. Offers consistent payment from House Mejora for safety.
Pirate Captivity: After several days, negotiates his release by promising to increase the pirates' income tenfold (from 20,000 to 30,000). His name was also changed to “Baghead of House Adler” after having a bag placed on his head.
Relations: Pirate Captain Skaal grew fond of Quinn in their time together.
Relics: Finds enough relics to fund the spaceport. Trades some relics for additional workers and wealth in the Senassant Mountains, House Thennatt's domain.
Lady Sarenna & Elias Adler: Engage romantically and sexually while the court is quiet.
Pirate Ransom: Receive a ransom note for Quinn Adler, which Lady Sarenna dismisses and jails the messenger.

Philippe Kestrel: Confides in Lady Sarenna about his mother forcing him to go to a harem, expresses his desire to be with her, and offers to leave his house and wealth behind. He reads a heartfelt but childlike poem to her.
Oda-Khagan Gildur: Heir to House Thennatt, challenges Lady Sarenna to a duel under the rules of kanly, and also challenges the Baron to single combat.
Lady Sarenna's Response: Uses The Voice to silence the room after a remark makes the crowd giggle and accepts the duel.
