Vorkosigan Saga/WMG: Difference between revisions
→Ivan's going to marry a Galactic
Line 10:
He's about due another stint of embassy duty, and he's pretty much run through all of his prospects at home. Plus now that both Gregor and Miles have produced heirs, he's out of the crossfire, ''and'' being physically normal he's under less pressure to be conventional about such things.
* The Amazon description of the next book heavily supports this, especially since it's about Ivan, and features him rescuing a female Galactic.
** Confirmed. As of ''Captain Vorpatril's Alliance'' Ivan is happily married to Tej ghem Estif Arqua, a half-Cetagandan daughter of House Cordonah of Jackson's Whole.
*** As a side benefit, the conservative Vor lords would sooner put a ''mutant'' on the throne of Barrayar than a man whose elevation would mean they'd have a half-Cetandan Empress who would bear quarter-Cetagandan Imperial heirs. Ivan has finally taken himself out of the succession entirely, and couldn't be happier about it.
