@ Lexicon = I had actually been counting on the fact that Riven wasn't, these are just Taula's opinions on people after all. It's coddled in the sense that Taula was raised amid a tide of constant war. ((Picture her upbringing as a montage from 300)) By the time Taula was nine she'd already added the first names to her kynneskr, names from the other children she'd been raised with. So from her point of view it's a thought along the lines of "Riven doesn't kill with the same ease and indifference it takes to walk across a room? Spoiled girl." It's a culture shock thing.
