Lady Shammah patiently waited for the king's arrival. She never visited him unless the king summoned her because she couldn't find any reason to see the king at all. She may have heard a lot of controversial issues inside the palace but she never tried to meddle on the kingdom's affairs because she fears the safety of her family. That's the reason why she wanted to keep her children away from desiring the throne.
She lost her best friend, lady Cassandra, because she tried to speak up for what is right and that gave her the fear of losing her family because of her nosiness. She chose not to meddle in anything that concerns the palace and just keep a low profile.
A lot of people died before because they tried to side with the truth and justice wasn't served for them so what's the use of standing for what is right when justice was already suppressed by revolting power?
