Dragons Are Demonic | |
The Conquerors Saga / int_2a6ed9ec | comment |
Dragons Are Demonic: A running theme is how dragons in Slavic culture might as well be analogues for demons, giving more weight to Lada being identified (and identifying) as one. To the point where Radu even carves "dragon" on her tombstone. | |

At the end of Bright We Burn, he finally manages to escape politics completely, living a quiet life with his family. | |

Dumb Muscle | |
The Conquerors Saga / int_a18fda9c | comment |
Dumb Muscle: Downplayed. Lada is a brilliant strategist, but she struggles with court intrigue and prefers brute force to anything else. This gets a lot worse when she becomes prince and kills the disloyal boyars, at which point she abandons any pretense of intelligent ruling and just tries to kill and torture her way through every problem. | |

My God, What Have I Done?: It takes her last friend dying for Lada to finally realize what a giant mess she's made of her life and her country. Once she sees that Radu is healing the land she carelessly destroyed in her war against Mehmed, she realizes that she was too brutal and decides to rule the fair way. | |

More Deadly Than the Male: Lada eventually realizes that the women of Wallachia are more inclined to brutality than the men, due to having suffered more under the reign of the boyars and Turks. Notably, while pretty much every male advisor speaks against her mass staking at Tirgoviste, the women fully support it. | |

Moral Event Horizon: In-Universe, Mehmed and Radu consider Lada to have crossed it when they come to Tirgoviste to see no less than 20,000 corpses on stakes. Mehmed, up to this point, treated the whole exercise as a game between him and Lada and was assured he could convince her to come home, but seeing the stakes makes him realize she's become truly unhinged. | |

Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: A common execution in the Ottoman Empire, used to terrify and demoralize enemies. When they go to the empire as hostages, the first thing Murad shows them is people being impaled. Lada simply offers suggestions, and once she grows up, earns the nickname "Impaler" for how eager she is to use it. | |
