Look

Young Alethi king with black hair and pale golden eyes, fine clothing, a face that looks like Gavilar's without the weight.

As observed

Insecure, theatrical, not stupid. Sees assassins in every shadow because his father was actually assassinated.

Where

The king's complex on the Shattered Plains
