Character from The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson
Sebarial's sharp-tongued Herdazian mistress who functionally manages his household. Not formally his wife but runs his warcamp operations with brisk efficiency and cutting wit.
Palona is Highprince Sebarial's mistress and the true manager of his household and warcamp operations. Though they are not formally married, she runs his domestic affairs with an efficiency that contrasts sharply with his performative laziness. Her sharp tongue and no-nonsense attitude provide grounding comedy. She handles Sebarial with a mix of genuine affection and exasperated pragmatism, and her Herdazian heritage gives her an outsider's perspective on Alethi court politics that she deploys with devastating effect.
Herdazian woman with tan skin and dark hair, dressed well but practically. Her expression usually carries a mix of amusement and exasperation, particularly when directed at Sebarial.
