| Page 111: | "Rebelliously , Deoris did as she was told, assuming the dozen responsibilities which must be taken..." |
| If this is rebellion, I say let's have some from the 112th Congress of the United States — especially that House of Representatives. |
| Page 115: | "What have I given up? I am still student, still discipline; Rajasta knows and has given his blessing." |
| There's a missing word or phrase here. Many possibilities exist; the simplest would be "still disciplined". |
| Page 116: | "Deoris twisted away from her. 'So does a cow accept destiny!' destiny!'" |
| Repeated word: S/B just "destiny!'". |
| Page 131: | "Rajasta did not very often agree with Rajasta..." |
| S/B "Riveda". Their names should be more dissimilar. Perhaps call the Grey-robe "Adevir"? |
| Page 140: | A gibe at alliteration: "Her flimsy flaxen frock was flung into the furious flames." |
| OK, I made most of that up. But not this: "A peasant in a purple smock stalked the smoking furrow sowing seeds." |
| Page 145: | "...and the words were harsh, rasping, utterly like his usual tone..." |
| S/B "utterly unlike". |
| Page 167: | "Deoris felt her pulses twitch. To visit the Gray Temple—in the company of their highest Adept!" |
| Deoris has more than one heart? Or maybe she felt her twitches pulse... |
| Page 198: | "The robes she wore within the shrine of the Mother must not be profaned by the eyes of any male." |
| So when Micon visited Domaris on her birthing-bed in the shrine of the Mother, what were the priestesses wearing? |
| Page 203: | "Micon leaned his face over the child, who lay docile in Rajasta's arms, and with his racked hands, lightly touched the closed eyes." |
| Spelling: S/B "wracked". |
