If it's about the direction of her gaze, then the reason is not what caught her attention...
It's more about her nature and status.
Good to know, my brain was doubting how much Queen over relationship she was portraying in the scene and therefore spiraled into...
Does Queen Menelwen not favour my Mistress, her mightiest champion and most loyal subject Lady Nada? Is there trouble brewing between the two? Did the silver tongued
Demon whisper sweet lies into the beautiful ears of Her Highness or My Lady?
OR is the Queen trying her hardest to ensure that no enemies in her court suspect Nada being her secret love (or love child)!!
P.S. Reading some Joe Abercrombie right now which might be biasing my M0rD0l world build. Please ignore anything I say. Can't wait for the next beautiful render.
