Maniai

The Guilty Gaze

Maniai, the Guilty Gaze of Carcossa, perceives shame, regret, lies and guilt; someone without those burdens would be invisible to him. The Empire used his gift to detect lies and wanted to exploit it against rivals, but he refused to betray people who had trusted him with their burdens and fled to Carcossa.

When the Carcossans debate Eos’s fate, he sees her overwhelming guilt and argues that it is punishment enough for now. He also senses that Terrane is hiding something, and warns that her response to exposure may be unpredictable.
