Blind from birth, though an expert in mirror magic, she was a charming member of Queen Moire court. Unfortunately her blindness made her an extremely unlikely marriage prospect. Court Heralld to Duchess Kiessa Val, and as a Representative to the Amber College of Herald representing Rebma. Well liked and soft spoken. She was a favorite confidant in the Court of Moire of Rebma. |
When Corwin and Deirdre and Random came to Rebma in the early portions of the Black Road War, Random was under a death sentence for his involvement with Moire's daughter Morganthe, who committed suicide in her grief. Moire demanded that Random marry Vialle for one year in reparation. The connection to the Amber family after the marriage ended would greatly improve Vialle's marriageability and standing in the court of Rebma. He accepted and they were married in Rebma in a Unicorn rite. Random then remained in Rebma during the Reign of King Eric until his imprisonment after a failed assassination attempt. | When Corwin and Deirdre and Random came to Rebma in the early portions of the Black Road War, Random was under a death sentence for his involvement with Moire's daughter Morganthe, who committed suicide in her grief.

She adamantly refuses to agree to this interpretation claiming that the incident of the court of Queen Margot was "an outgrowth of panic at Patternfall, fear of the citizenry at being abandoned by the royals, and an attempt by the left behind courtiers, include herself , to drink all the alcohol in the cellars of Amber before it all unraveled." The acceptance of her assertion to the throne by the wearing of coronet is a highly complicated matter. |
