 The hunt was on to find Clover, but there are two parties interested in Clover. The Queen wants her back, but another party wants her to stay out of the courts. Ilskandre reveals that he knew about the curse, and that he wanted to see what it would do for Clover and hoped it would spark something in her. He said that he is unsure which party to trust, but when Clover is ready, he will take her to the House of Fallen Leaves. He will be staying in Tearshy for one year, and then his contract is over. The hunt was on to find Clover, but there are two parties interested in Clover.
