Destiny's Rift (Broken Well Trilogy) - Plot & Excerpts
He felt it important that his people had a voice, one which Battu had long stifled by keeping the throne room bare and empty. One of the first things Losara had done as Shadowdreamer was invite the councillors to return to court. Strangely enough, Tyrellan had not been opposed to returning the throne room to the old ways; he had in fact encouraged it. He had also suggested that Losara show the court some great display of power, traditional for a new Shadowdreamer, but Losara had not considered it necessary. The purpose of displaying power was to dissuade anybody from challenging it, and toppling Battu should have been display enough. If it was not, and someone did indeed wish to move against him, well, that would be an easy way of weeding out the disloyal. Now that the court had returned, however, Losara rather oddly found himself sympathising with Battu. It was difficult to concentrate in the midst of the constant chatter and bickering, and he found himself avoiding the throne room most of the time, effectively giving it over to the councillors as a place to settle their smaller scores and oversee the general running of the land.
