Dead queen of the castle, whose private kitchen becomes the venue for the warlords' field ruling.
Queen Imogen is dead by this chapter, referred to only as "the late Queen Imogen." Her private kitchen, off to the side of the ballroom, is where Panford convenes the Field Ruling Adjudication — a rich, finely carved wooden table, counters, and a staff of bugbear mercenary cooks who are shooed out as the warlords enter.
