I am stuck as to how King Matyas mother, Erzsebet Szilagy, would be addressed as by the public. My MC has a meeting with her, and this would be the only scene I have her in the novel. Queen Mother would not work because the phrase wasn't in use until the following century, in England. Her son Matyas was the first to become king in her family, and she is a widow. Would my MC address her as My Lady or Lady Erzsebet? Or is that not good enough of an address for a king's mother? I really have no clue.
