I am happy this situation happen to Hayme. This is during hardships one know ones real friends/companions/partners. Somehow I can't blame Bua. She is a girl of her time-women were eternal minor before and belonged to their parent or husbands- she is from a noble family -how many would really marry or associate with a slave or convicted?- and there is the burden of the society and she grew up in this environnment and I feel she must be very conservative -Lamduan seems carefree- added to the fact of being greedy.
