There are a couple of important foreshadowings in this chapter as well. One is the Seon sense of direction, which plays a very small-yet-important part in the climax of the book. The other is Sarene’s insight into Ahan’s character here at the party. If you’ve been following him, you realize that he is like she explains—a little too quick to act, not quite as politically shrewd as he’d like others to think. It’s this scene, however, where I really wanted to lay the seeds of understanding in my readers, preparing them for his eventual betrayal.
