The Companions of the Heart (spoilers LST)

[assasin]

I can't say that I forgot as I never got anything from Kekki other than that she was there for purely ornamental and physical reasons. I know she helped Malta regarding the Chalcedean ships at one point but, other than that, I wasn't aware of her expertise in the field of Chalced. As for being drugged and therefore unwillingly acting under Cosgo's influence, I hadn't a clue

First of all, I never said she wasnt willing to be stoned. Maybe I wasnt that clear.

Secondly I was atlking about her helping malta. After a couple of rereads I got a hint of the force of her personality without the drugs. When she was instructing malta.

And I also got the sense of her knowledge in her suggestion of the bloody rag. It doesnt seem to be common knowledge and such small knowledge as that would be [in my opinion] very important when dealing with a chaledan ambassador. Not the adversion to the blood, but similar small knowledge of customs. a real life example would be serving pork to a muslim diplomat. A very bad move.
