I agree that Ekaterin comes in with a huge advantage because she can leverage all that we know about the Vor. But I just wish first that Bujold hadn't made Fawn so similar to a younger, less mature Ekaterin (although maybe in the next books she will diverge, now that we've gotten the family stuff out of the way), and also I really cannot see what Dag sees in her. I mean, I know bright bushy-tailed twenty-year-old guys, but I think "aww, they're so cute" as opposed to "I am tempted to spend my life with this person who is still a rapidly changing adolescent."
