Megan Whalen Turner Quote

Irene-Don't call me that.You were the princess Irene the first time we met.It means 'peace', Attolia said. What name could be more inappropriate?That I be named Helen? Eddis suggested.The hard lines in Attolia's face eased, and she smiled. Eddis was a far cry from the woman whose beauty had started a war.
