### Summary
The introduction of a new external threat, the desert kingdom of Kanakta, has ignited a firestorm of controversy among readers, who are decrying its depiction as a tired and racist "savage nation" trope. Led by a handsome but ambitious Sultan, Kanakta plans to invade the empire, with a specific interest in either recruiting or eliminating Prince Payne (Arth). This development directly endangers the protagonists' revolutionary plot just as it was gaining momentum. While the new conflict raises the political stakes, it has also alienated a significant portion of the fanbase, even as some readers begin to ship the new Sultan with the recently empowered Rebecca, adding yet another layer of complexity to the story's fraught romantic entanglements.
