Character Development
Marcus/Fidelias: Fidelias is torn throughout the book as to where his loyalties lie as he sees that Tavi is a chance at change and hope for Alera. He chooses to side with Tavi against Invidia and Arnos and kills them.
Amara: Amara who has to this point been very loyal to the crown loses faith in Gaius as he lies to her about the motives of the mission to Kalare
Isana: Isana’s confidence in herself grows as do her powers. She is able to throw a shark onto the deck of the enemy ship while battling in the Leviathan’s run. She creates a bridge of water which is turned into ice to help Tavi and his team escape the Grey Tower. She heals people with the skill and speed of a high lady. She proclaims her love for Araris.
Tavi/Gaius Octavian: Tavi learns his heritage and deals with the emotions of anger towards Isana for keeping this from him and loss of not having known his father. He reconciles with Isana and realizes she did what she had to do keep him safe.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or development:
“What the statesman is most anxious to produce is a certain moral character in his fellow citizens, namely a disposition to virtue and the performance of virtuous actions.”
—Aristotle (384–22 B.C.)
“This was the Eastham famous of late years for its camp- meetings, held in a grove near by, to which thousands flock from all parts of the Bay. We conjectured that the reason for the perhaps unusual, if not unhealthful development of the religious sentiment here, was the fact that a large portion of the population are women whose husbands and sons are either abroad on the sea, or else drowned, and there is nobody but they and the ministers left behind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
