She undertakes the mission to get ahead of the man who has been promised the throne if he kills Arthur so that she can rule instead. Mera’s whole quest begins as a way for her to take control of her own destiny and instead take the power from the patriarchal figures in her life and place it into her own hands. The other main theme of the book is duty versus love. Everything within this book revolves around Mera’s choices and her struggle between duty and love. It’s really well done in that Mera doesn’t feel like she’s got no choice in the matter. It starts with her being forced into a marriage she’s not a fan of, and as her journey goes on through the book, she falls in love with somebody else. One of the main plot points that the entire book is centered around is the fact that Mera is caught in the middle of a love triangle.
