Khamsin spends the first half of the book wearing clothing picked for her--first regal, then a disguise.

But she is not a princess, nor is she a fugitive. That's what others want her to be.

What she is is a proud Zagnati bellatrice, and her true outfit of choice reflects it.

But Khamsin isn't listening. She picks up the helmet, first, runs her fingers over the chitinwork—nothing fine, nothing sanded, only the material's natural lines, hollowed, treated, hardened. The crown of the skewer-moth, a saucer-shaped piece of carapace lined with slits that once housed the creature's many tongues—now an armored sun-hat. The thorax piece of a burrower fashioned into a pauldron, its long wings into a cape. Bracers from the hollowed-out leg segments of a stalk-hound alpha, overlapping vigilant plates in a skirt over the legs, adornments of bone and silk and sinew. A raider's regalia. "It's glorious," Khamsin says. The piece of quilted armor Sahira bought her is there, too, as is the dagger, and yes, the gara—its steel polished and sharpened, its curved blade thirsty.A piece of character art by ArgoVela (@argovelaart.bsky.social) depicting two figures. To the right is Khamsin, a very tall and powerfully built woman with beige skin, short blonde hair, and covered in scars. She carries a large curved blade on her back and wears a sun hat-like helmet and a pauldron made of bug parts and decorated with gossamer wings. She towers well above the other figure, and is shielding her from the wind with her cloak while watching her protectively. To the left is, Sahira, an averagely-sized human, who s walking carefully in the shade provided. Her skin is olive and she has dark long hair, dresses in loose clothes in tones of blue and purple, and wears a vast assortment of moon-themed silver jewelry. She seems a little bit embarrassed to be shielded from the wind in such a way, but is doing a good enough job hiding it.
