Kelesina Shores

Events
- MB2:BoM:Ch 12 Holds miniature court in black and silver before a knot of guests asking about a civic project — Wax passes her in the room without engaging.
- MB2:BoM:Ch 13 Stops Wax in the ballroom to needle him about taking a speech transcript back to his peasant governor, then freezes when he produces the beggar's coin; flees the hall straight to a private contact.
- MB2:BoM:Ch 15 Reports to Edwarn through a boxy speaking device on her table that Wax knows about the project and that the cube and the second kandra spike are both still loose; rises in shock when Wax drops from the ceiling with his gun on her.
- MB2:BoM:Ch 16 Held at gunpoint, then shot through the forehead by her own Terris steward on Suit's orders — and shot once more dead so the steward can take the gold bracelet off the body.
