Through book 8
Eris's line in book 7 that Carl is already married reads, after the fact, as Widow's Rights: Princess Chandra is Carl's wife in Naga law (B8 ch. 1). She puts a contract on Quasar's family, tries to accept a deal on Donut's behalf, and keeps filing while the marriage certificate goes to a hearing (B8 ch. 88).
