"wahb ellat [zenobia's infant son] is the true king, and i will rule in his place as regent. are there any objections?"zenobia's ambition for power and to be a shaper of history quickly dwarfs her mourning for her husband and she seizes power. that tension in her is what makes her an amazing character in this musical.
