TBH Cerylia might just be a disconnected royal who has no idea about the struggles of her subjects, but nothing up until now has indicated that, and when you've had 60% of the book, of which she took up about 10% not mention this before, while her appearances are all from her perspective, this doesn't really flow well.
Point is IDK if the character's a twat or if the writer is and that's not good writing.

"Well, if that isn’t an opening, he doesn’t know what is. He takes it without hesitation. “So, what’s your story, Arden? Where do you come from? Have you always known you were illusié?” “Whoa,” Arden says as she puts both hands up. “Slow down there, tiger.”"

it's two questions, Arden

"He must have dozed off because the next thing he knows, a twig snaps and there’s someone standing right in front of him."

"At this, Xerin’s head pops up from his work. “They’re beautiful, majestic creatures that are renowned for their speed. While in flight, they can reach over 320 kilometers per hour.” He lowers his gaze again and takes a small rag to wipe the excess metal shards from the blade."

Good to know they use metric.

"SHE’D SEEN IT with her own two eyes. Aldreda Tymond. Plunging a dagger into her beloved husband’s chest. Her heart wrenches at the thought as she rolls over onto her side."

Fucking shame we didn't cus that's not what that scene with her described. We just saw her exiting a tent and then the queen going "le gaspe tis the killer!"
If this is a red herring it's too obvious.

"Aldreda shakes her head. “I won’t be staying long. I just wanted to tell you that I’m not well and will be in our chambers for most of the day.”

Surely you have servants for that.

"“As I mentioned, before I came here, I visited Elvira. She’s fine,” he adds quickly, “but she may not be for much longer. It seems Tymond wants to make an example out of her.” “An example?” Rydan’s hands curl into fists. Tymond better not be planning to execute her, or do anything at all to harm her. “So what is he planning to do?”

Rydan you're the king's assassin what the fuck do you think

“Let me help you,” Xerin says. “You know my sister.” (...) The fires of Eroesa separated her family. She and her mother ended up in Trendalath, but her brother and her father . . . The words come out as a croak. “You’re her brother.”

You hired an editor, Kristen... You said so on your channel. Why you lyin? Why you always lyin? Oh my God. Stop fuckin lyin.

"Normally, Rydan is babbling about something, droning on and on, just happy that he’s being heard. He’s never considered himself an extrovert, or even someone who enjoys social settings in the slightest, but after being locked up, for lords knows how long, with no one to talk to, he craves it." THAT IS NOT HOW INTROVERSION AND EXTROVERSION WORK

"“We do not attack our own,” Xerin says with extreme superiority.
“Our own . . .?” My words trail off as I realize what he’s talking about.
Holy lords. The son of King Darius Tymond is one of us.
Illusié."

The poison. The poison for Kuzco. The posion chosen specifically to kill Kuzco. Kuzco's poison. That poison?
