Andry McCraigyn is the chief of security assigned to protect the heir to Merchant House Caladharas. Andry is a gruff man…who has a special sense of discretion. He tries to do his job to the best of his ability, but he also knows when to look the other way. Especially when the 17 year old heir wants to go out on a date by himself.
Andry McCraigyn is in his late forties,and has been on the job for the last decade and a half…and he considers himself to be one of the best in the business. He isn’t wrong either.
Nicole Zehringer is the Chief Physician/Health Official for House Tindal… A close friend of Chancellor Illitock, one of her hobbies is Threllichock medicine.
I’m trying to think of why Belsarius took over Andry to do this.
My first theory is that it’s to get House Caladharas and House Tindal at each other. It might have something to do with Nicole Zehringer blocking Calliel earlier?
It’s to disrupt the leadership of the house(s) led by a 16 year-old – and to strike fear into his opponents (who’s next?). Unfortunately, now his enemies know that this can be done.
I was pondering that – I’ve always assumed that it meant that the heir had to die. Of course, with Andry’s inevitable death this makes either his brother or his son the heir. It shouldn’t take Bellisarius too long to figure out who his next target needs to be. Ian will be head of two houses and heir to a third … interesting!
Cool!

I just had another thought. Could it be to get rid of the knowledge of the RAD51D molecule and its safe operation?

How about because Belsarius is fruitloop and this seemed like a perfectly normal and sane thing to do?

A people, A House, and an Heir after all.
