The situation at the start

A Spilled Tray Exposes the Banquet's Rules

Aysel has learned that survival at Alpha Zavier's gatherings depends on avoiding notice, eye contact, and interruption. A fall while serving wine breaks all three rules at once, allowing the household to treat an accident as grounds for punishment. The basement to which she is returned is also her bedroom, linking public discipline to the ongoing deprivation that limits her life even when no banquet is taking place.
