Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Inda series is an adult fantasy series written by Sherwood Smith that takes place in an alternate world called Sartorias Deles, in which several of her other novels (including Crown Duel) are set. The events described in the four books comprising the Inda series are historical to the events in her other novels.The setting is a world in which humankind are migrants, albeit from some several thousand years past. Once, humans built an ancient kingdom referred to as Old Sartor, thriving and building on the magics that were taught them by the indigenous beings of the world when they first entered it, changing and enhancing life... but then Norsunder came, perverting and corrupting, and the ancient kingdom of Old Sartor fell. But magic continues to exist and enhance the lives of the people of Sartorias Deles and by the time of our story the memory of Old Sartor's fall and the shadowy existence of soul-eating Norsundrians have faded in most people's minds to frightening stories and a source for curses...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })But all that is really background data. The real story begins with Indevan-Dal Algara-Vayir of Choraed-Elgaer, the second son of a prince (an aristocratic title) among the incredibly martial-oriented horse-riding Marlovans who rule Iasca-Leror. As the younger brother, he is expected to remain at home and dedicate his life to serving as its defender when his brother inherits. Still a child, and subject to the discipline and training deemed necessary by his elder brother, he is beloved of the castle people and perfectly content with his lot in life.But by royal decree, he and all other younger brothers among the aristocracy are summoned to train for war at the royal academy, disrupting tradition. To Inda, it seems an exciting opportunity to hone his skills and make friends among the other aristocrats' children, though it means the kingdom is preparing to go to war. But when he befriends the younger son of the king he becomes the target of vicious bullying directed by the king's heir and his inner circle, and as his own natural talent for command and tactics begins to show he draws the unwelcome attention of the king's own brother.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Inda does not get to live the life he had expected. The events set in motion by his friendships at the Academy lead him far away from Iasca-Leror, to the decks of pirate ships and distant shores, dealing with ghosts and pirates and rumored Norsundrians. Meanwhile, the people he's forced to leave behind have their own problems to deal with, as the machinations of the king's brother and firstborn son begin to come to light. And all the while the ancient enemy of the Marlovans, the Venn, against whom they anticipate warfare, are beginning to mass as internal problems loom...Though Inda is the focus character, the books feature Loads and Loads of Characters, several of whom have only a tertiary link if any to Inda himself. The books also span a period of about 15-20 years, following Inda, his siblings, and his age-mates as they grow up from childhood/teenhood to adulthood and parenthood, and introducing members of younger generations to follow as well in each book. | |

| Inda / int_4604fd4d | comment |
Worthy Opponent: A big part of Venn war philosophy requires acknowledging their enemies' prowess and treating them with respect and courtesy. One of the commanding officers, Durasnir, even contemplates how incredibly respectful and honourable his treatment of Inda would be if he were to capture him, with a chance to smoothly discuss favourite battle tactics and so on over supper before execution, for which all of the Venn officers would be required to be present and in their best uniforms to observe. | |

Truth Serum: White kinthus, though its truth-telling properties are only one of its uses. It's also a pain reliever, and is said to relax the ties between the body and the mind or spirit. If taken in too high a dosage it can kill the recipient. People under the influence of white kinthus will talk about anything if they are asked, but the information is not always relevant - careful direction is required in order to gain useful information from the person to whom the kinthus is given. | |

Experimented in College: Most of the all-male Tvei class sexually experiment with one another in their teenage years until they are given leave to go to the town pleasure houses, at which point most of them seem to be exclusively into women. The exceptions are Flash Arveas, who continues to be interested in both men and women, and Evred, who is only interested in men. | |

| Inda / int_54bb502b | comment |
Nobody Poops: In a weird, roundabout way, this is actually literally true in the Inda series. Instead of pooping (or peeing, or dealing with menstrual flows) and cleaning up after the fact, humans all learn how to say the Waste Spell when they are young. The Waste Spell transfers the waste from their bowels directly deep into the ground, without their having to do anything so gross as actually expel it from their bodies and wipe up afterward. | |

Chekhov's Skill: Nugget's rope-swinging battle technique. It comes in quite handy in the last standoff with Erkric. | |

Everybody Has Lots of Sex | |
| Inda / int_b532f68b | comment |
Everybody Has Lots of Sex: Because of magic, women in this world cannot get pregnant unless they choose to and sexually transmitted diseases have been eradicated. Therefore, this trope ensues. Most of the characters go to pleasure houses and/or engage in casual sex on a relatively regular basis, with the exception of a few who are implied to be somewhere on the asexual spectrum or else have Single-Target Sexuality. | |

Actually, That's My Assistant | |
| Inda / int_c48a0fe6 | comment |
Actually, That's My Assistant: People mistake Fox for Inda so often that they start using it to trick people, at one point having several characters dress up like Fox and captain various ships to give people the impression Elgar is present while Inda does his own investigations elsewhere. In the third and fourth book it sort of stops applying because Fox basically takes on the Elgar the Fox persona, as Inda goes home to fight the Venn. | |

Action Girl: A kingdom full of them - all of the Marlovan women are trained to fight defense in counterpart to the men, who are expected to fight offense. The girls and women in Inda's marine defense company and later his pirate fleet also definitely count. | |

Functional Magic | |
| Inda / int_dfe120e5 | comment |
Functional Magic: In this world, magic was used in the past to eradicate sexually transmitted diseases and pedophilia and to prevent the existence of physical rape (although sexual coercion and abuse of a sort can still happen). It is also used to get rid of human waste, disappear dead bodies (according to certain rules), transfer things and people across distances, clean things, strengthen bridges and buildings, heat water for baths, and enable babies to be born without anyone getting pregnant or doing PIV sex (although the Birth Spell is not guaranteed to always come to people when they want to use it). And these are just the things that are commonly in use by laypeople - there are other, far more powerful magics which exist and are studied by mages. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Inda / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Fox and Barend conspired to bring Inda to Walic's attention so that they could get him aboard and then use his prowess as a commander and fighter to help them lead a mutiny. Part of their scheme involved being sure to pick someone who looked like he could be Inda and ensuring he was killed so that Walic would think the dangerous Marlovan prince was dead. This means they are indirectly responsible for the deaths of the majority of Inda's original Marine Defenders crew and definitely directly responsible for the deaths of Kodl and Dun. Inda's response to this reveal is a quiet statement that they killed his 'mates', which makes them uncomfortable, but he doesn't seem to hold it against them for long and never brings it up again after that conversation. | |
