How do you picture Cordelia Naismith Vorkosigan? I always have trouble imagining characters who are canonically attractive enough but not beautiful. Her face is “good enough for all practical purposes.”
I offer the young Angela Merkel as a possible model. The strength of character in the face is right. She’s in her late 30s here. So I think this would be Cordelia in her 50s or 60s, given Betan lifespan.
