===Confidences===
“Its been a long time since I had a kinsman I felt I could confide in.  You are not in the line of succession and neither are my siblings anymore.  As for Tesa, her fate is her own.  Maybe she can mange Alex.  She is a skilled assassin after all.  I find it interesting that Gangdis thought to bring her with you on your adventures.  It certainly profited her.  She is the first Rasak trained Snikura assassin.   The Snikura are something of Conf's.   Problem solvers of his.  No need to worry about her and Alex anytime soon.  He rarely keeps a playmate long.  He has fathered only one son in tens of thousands of couplings.  There is probably a reason why but amberites aren't all that fecund either so maybe its how the pattern wants things.”

He looks sideways to Realmer, "Remember that; The pattern wants things.  I suspect no Amberite is born unless the pattern wishes it.  It was young and Wild when Drowkin fathered Oberon and Oberon fathered his First brood.  It may know better now though it makes me wonder how much control it had of the creation of my line with Lintra.   Hmmm"

“As For Random, the progress he had planned has been scrapped.  Plans change.  You may or may not remember a son of Julian's, Donovan. Very young.  He has been to the castle a couple times but mostly he was raised with the Rangers.  His mother is a Fey Duchess named Cyrene.  The Fey in Amber have sort of led lives in hiding for the most part.  Not officially recognized but not oppressed either.  Oberon had a problem with them in the beginning.  They inhabited Amber before Oberon brought his new wife, my sister and mother Cymnea and bore Osric, Finndo, Borlak and I there.  He also fathered Orsola with a Rebman queen Moins, and Elfwine with the Fea queen Titania.  Cymnea was jealous in a way that has cast shadows of jealous women across shadow ever since.  So the rebmans got their own kingdom rather then just being part of the Kingdom of Amber when it started, and the Fey were forced into hiding.  Hell Cymnea and Titania actually fought and it took Elfwine and Osric to pull them apart.  Cyrene and I fought, she beside her sister Titania and I along side my mother.  Borlak had to separate us.  I was a delivering her deathstrike when Borlak tackled me.  I allowed Donovan into Rasak as a partial apology when Julian requested it.”
