My memory isn’t very clear because I finished the novel a long time ago but I had the impression she was a red haired woman as well. I think it was pointed out in a scene further down in the novel.
SPOILER AHEAD!
You have been warned!
When the queen invited ishakan to a luncheon (leah the king and the brother were also present) ishakan had gifted leah before the luncheon a purple silk dress (purple coloured attire was thought so very rare and expensive that even nobility couldn’t get ahold of easily and wear.) Leah didn’t wear it and I think she asked to return the gift back but somehow the queen got the dress and wore it to the event. Later on during the luncheon ishakan poured a drink all over the queen to shame her for her act (that only leah ishakan and the queen were aware of not any other party). At that scene I was very sure that they mentioned her hair colour was red.
The innocent dress is goooone
Was I the only one who always believed the queen was a red head ?
