in retrospect this is such a funny gift:

The Mede ambassador, Melheret, gave the king a scroll. "I was so hoping for a statue," the king commented ungraciously as he received it. Most of those who heard him looked uncomfortable. The ambassador smiled condescendingly and said, "This is a story of my people, Your Majesty, the Epic of Omarak, who overreached and was struck down for it. I thought you might find it instructive." "Ambassador, I will surely give it the attention it deserves," the king promised.

#tqt #queen's thief #melheret spends his entire time as ambassador in bitch eating crackers mode #but in doing so identifies the major theme of the last book of the series #also. there's probably a cut scene where gen and sophos both read this and are super into it??#like from anyone else this would have just been a thoughtful gift (and more appreciated than the horse)
