Anath/Semirhage was in this role ...

She could ask Anath, her Soe'feia, to administer a penance, but it was less than two years since Neferi's unexpected death, and she still was not entirely comfortable with her replacement. Something told her she must do this on her own. Perhaps she had seen an omen she had not recognied consciously. Ants were not likely on a ship, but several sorts of beetle might be.

I wonder if being a "voice" and being Soe'feia are different roles and Anath simply held both...

Many of the Blood called their Voices Soe'feia, but Voices of the Blood were so'jhin, and knew they could be punished if their owners were displeased by what they said even if they were called Soe'feia. A Speaker of Truth could not be commanded or coerced or punished in any way. A Truthspeaker was required to tell the stark truth whether or not you wanted to hear it, and to make sure that you heard. Those Blood who called their Voices Soe'feia thought that Algwyn, the last man to sit on the Crystal Throne, almost a thousand years ago, had been insane because he let his Soe'feia live and continue in her post after she slapped his face before the entire court.

Selucia is voice and truthspeaker, I don't think the term "so'feia" has been used previously. *NM* - 13/12/2012 07:23:44 PM 695 Views
