Selah cannot be a foreign foreigner. She is from a Castle that used to exist just north of Landria and her great grandmother once assisted in delivering a message of peace to end the civil war between Southern and Northern Peterny. She does not resent Abigail for this, merely is annoyed by how often it is used as a weapon against their family.

She is not physically very different, it is simply the trends in her family that run against the norm -- dark curly hair, kept long, sharp nose, modest clothing.

In comparison, Viviane's straight blonde hair, kept as short as is appropriate for her work, is comfortable wearing less constricting and occasionally more seductive, off the shoulder outfits. Quinton appreciates this, and rejects Selah because she is more straitlaced.

Rigoletto is a lovely musical. I should buy the soundtrack.
