A character is described as having "wandering hands," continually making verbal and physical advances on women who don't want them. A woman was raped by two men; this is backstory but is discussed separately by the woman and by one of the men. A character who was formerly enslaved describes how some of the slaves were raped, and how he personally stopped the rape of a boy.

The princess is age 16, which is considered a marriageable age. One much older character talks about her in explicitly sexual terms and tries to marry her. The princess's mother was married at 15 and this is discussed as backstory. Separately, a character tells a story about a young male slave who was nearly raped.

In the world of the fantasy there is a spell to kill someone else. The cost of successfully performing the spell is that you die too. We hear the stories (and in one case, see the body) of two characters who successfully performed the spell (and therefore died). Later on, another character also attempts it, also successfully.
Separately, two different characters express a wish to die, with one pretty clearly hinting that she intends to die by suicide. However, neither does.

The princess is forced into an unwanted betrothal. The intended groom threatens to rape her whether she marries him or not.
A character is falsely accused of rape; there's a lengthy scene where he defends himself against this accusation. Later, he has a nightmare where he actually commits the rape he was accused of (not described in detail).
At least two characters have been raped or nearly raped; both rapes are discussed, though not shown.

No, but there is a gay character who was mutilated and exiled because he was gay. This happens in the backstory, not during the main plot of the book.

There is a character who has a magical tumor, which makes him sick. It's not traditional cancer but it does have a progressive and malignant element.

No hardcore alcoholics, but a permissive drinking/party culture leads to characters frequently getting too drunk.

One character habitually overeats, and it's implied this is his way of coping with depression. Separately, as part of a prayer/petition, two characters fast for a couple of days.

Some characters are followed (as by spies) or harangued (as by people who really want something from them) but this is always short term. No "romantic" stalkers.

In the backstory. A character who had a supernatural experience was told that she was crazy, and kept in the dark about facts that proved she wasn't crazy.

Many animals are slaughtered, mostly in a single scene. There's another scene where a rat and a raven are killed.
