Word choice

Which word choice is better, 'she' or 'the former ruler'? FYI- Alhana is the former ruler.
Afterward, Alhana’s company entered Bianost, where (she/the former ruler) offered her greetings to the masked leader of the city’s defenders.

If those who are following the story line know she was the ruler, it makes no difference. If this is new to the reader, then use the description rather than the pronoun.
