§ “Ugh,” I grumbled, and Sen chuckled inside my head. My thoughts were more hers than mine, though.

I do describe Tiana as being on the short side, and 5'4" (164 cm) is more average size for a woman than 'on the short side'.

By the way, Americans use 'English', not Imperial. Officially, we call it US Customary now, but it's English. We've never used Imperial. Doesn't matter for inches and feet, since the English changed the Imperial inch to equal the US inch after WWII, but it makes a huge difference in things like pints, quarts, gallons and tons. We don't use, and have never used, Imperial, which wasn't created until half a century after we declared independence from England.

In case anyone is beginning to wonder, Lhan will indeed stay POV for most of the next several chapters, but not forever.
