Females and males watched Rhysand throughout the hall–and the shadowsinger and I made a game of betting on who, exactly, would work up the nerve to invite the High Lord home.

About This Quote

This quote refers to one of the many rules Rhysand and Valanciel have for their relationship. They never go home with each other. This is because the High Lords are forbidden to take their own lovers home. The High Lords are high in rank, so they are obviously powerful people, but they are not allowed to bring their lovers home. Rhysand says that it is a game for them to see who gets the courage to invite Rhysand home, since he is a High Lord and Valanciel is a shadow-singer.
