Elide did not see that happening anytime soon, though. And never would. At the coronation party, Aelin dances and is so blissfully happy. Tipped back her chin. This in turn makes Lorcan act like a regular person around her, which makes them both comfortable around each other. The others gaped in silence at the magnificent, proud stag who had come to greet them. Even if he knew his Fireheart would pretend otherwise.. Had she done this? And one youre excited about?. Terrasen is safe and she is HAPPY! . To walk this path together, back from the darkness of the iron coffin. Hed never had his hair this short. As soon as Aelin freed Lysandra, and offered to let us join her court, Terrasen has always meant home. I notice you aren't denying anything, though? We fight.. of course). That final breaking. Let it kill him, wreck him. Who dies in the Kingdom of ash? And it would hurt, and she would scream, but shed face it. THIS MADE ME SO HAPPY! Shining brighter than the snow outside, Aelin lifted her chin and began her final walk home. Wondered if hed finally let the world see the parts of him he hides so deeply, the parts that he showed and gave to Elide every day, every night. And to make it even better!? It had been Aelin, the silent call of the mating bond driving him, even when he could not feel it. She is not alone and I think that helps her to finish the Lock. It would have been an honor indeed.. My favorite part was Aelin and Lysandra being absolutely badass. I am beyond happy that Aelin made it back to Rowan. After another two weeks, the tower she was forced to live in for ten years was destroyed, toppled to the ground by Lorcans magic and his sheer will. I was one of the lucky ones that got VIP tickets and got to meet her!!! Asterin smiled wider, kissed Manons brow, and whispered again, Live. Manon didnt see the blow coming. And then Aelin stood before Dorian and Chaol, and Rowan stepped back, falling into line beside Aedion, Fenrys, Lorcan, Elide, Ren, and Lysandra.

Abraxos is alive, but injured. . Not until things settled down, if they ever did. When all seems lost, Aelin goes down to the plains. We need to fix that, Elide muttered. . It just shows how desperate he is to keep Elide safe.). . I feel like SJM must have planned that from the beginning. Not helpless. Between Antica and Aelins truly democratic governing style she has everything we need! To fight for what she promised us. Darrow said quietly, And what was that? Manon smiled then. It was you, who knew pain as I did, and who walked with me through it, back to the light.

I had obviously cried many many times already in this book, but this was the first time I truly broke down. Its real. I knew youd find a way. Brilliant, powerful, amazing.

With that, Lorcan took his son back to his room, being sure to take the scissors away. Whatre you laughing at? Lorcans voice was rough, partly from the lack of sleep, partly fromwell, being woken up. YES EVANGELINE!!! And there was Aedion at the thrones left. I was actually at the Sarah J. Maas tour event when I read this part. I think this, along with the vision of her mother, are two of the most inspiring scenes. .

Elide promises, and then she and Manon run to the aerie. He then uses Maeves power against her and captures her mind! One of my favorite fun facts/cool moments is when Fenrys and Chaol are discussing his horse . . . If Lorcan ever threatens or yells or speaks cruelly to her, she just stands her ground and snaps right back. They decide this in the middle of the night and immediately go to forge the Lock. Anyway, Mala stays behind and gives Aelin a kernel of power. He teleports behind Maeve AND THRUSTS GOLDRYN INTO HER BACK!!!! And for Elide to love himhe was still in awe that every day he went to sleep, Elide was right by his side. While those scenes were gripping and somber, especially the Thirteen dying, those characters are just side characters. Gods above, Chaol was walking again. And her words, her stupid, hateful words to him. Touch any of them. I loved everything about this scene. It seems like every time she gets a win, she learns that there are even more insanely difficult challenges ahead. She refuses to be enslaved with a Wyrd collar. He could have sworn the Lord of the North flickered in response. He could do nothing but watch the horrors unfold, bound to the blood oath, Maeves smile a permanent brand. I had impossibly high hopes for this book. As the two warriors they were. The fighting against Morath is non-stop. he was her mate, and she was finally allowed to call him such, to let him be such. Hope that had guided Marion Lochan when she chose to buy a young heir time to run with her very life.

Glennis finished, Let the land be witness. the battlefield where rulers and citizens of so many kingdoms, so many nations, had come to pay tribute. Ive said it a million times and Ill say it a million more . He would not let the road end here. Dorian and Chaols reunion was amazing and so beautiful (I have no better adjectives lol). Sarah is very emotional and cries a lot which makes me super happy because I am the same way. Your parents are . She made Lorcan, Chaol, and Yrene stop at various food stands, asking Chaol what delicacies were native to the city, and what she should try. He was glad to be the one to rip it down and erase it from existence. She knows that Yrene has a chance. Everything ties in together so well, and Aelin and Yrenes reunion is one of my favorites tie ins of the whole series. I experienced every emotion reading. Her uncle, however, did not trust any healers and did not want her to run away, so he refused to have her ankle looked at, causing her to be permanently crippled. . Aelins inner dialogue is super emotional, but also talks about the tie ins or as Aelin calls it . Lorcan slid his other arm around Elide, bringing his mouth close to her ear as he said, "You have to let me go." Each word was gravelly, his voice strained nearly to the point of uselessness. He had done this. Every single one of Aedion and Lysandras chapters are brutal. The marks will guide you.. Lorcan blinked at her, then howled. I experienced every emotion reading KOA. They are best ship in the series(Manon and Dorian are just so weird together, I mean you can't take them seriously) but the thought of elide finding someone else is scaring. Where anyone, regardless of who they are and where they came from and what their rank is can dwell in peace. . The group begins to travel to leave Wendlyn when the Little Folk appear to them. Aelins fight against Maeve and Erawan is intense. And there she was. I love that Sarah J. Maas and Aelin acknowledge that she is NOT okay. For the companions around her, to lift their despair, their fear, she wouldnt yield. One of the coolest images was when the Little Folk came to Aelin in the cavern. , A crown of silver and pearl and diamond gleamed there, fashioned into upswept swans wings. . And when we are done, when you settle, we will have a thousand years together. And she was not done yet. She is ready to fight for a better world. NOX FREAKING OWEN! Manon shows so much emotion and it is just so raw and devastating. I have no words. Chaols father refuses, but since Chaol outranks him he tells his father to suck it! Aelin is there to fight. One last gift to my bloodline. I totally get why Dorian is upset, and I would be too, but Manons plan totally worked. The battle continues and the witches help, but even with the aid they are still going to lose. Shes still alive and begging for her life, but Aelin approaches and PUTS SILBAS RING ONTO MAEVES FINGER!!!!! I want it to be over, one way or another. Her fingers curled into fists. This is the part of the book that absolutely destroyed me. After all the amazing, emotional reunions, Aelin states, Shall we discuss where you all plan to march once we beat the living shit out of the army. Its such a perfect Aelin quote. That he lived, and lived to see Perranth. It made me so happy, but so sad because I was sure that one or both of them were not going to make it. "Faster, Farasha!" Elide called to the horse as she steered her toward the keep, the mountain it had been built into. She chuckled a little bit. And began. Farashas nickname is Hellas horse. It all comes together again. Anyway, Cyrene tells Manon that she can lead them to a group of Crochans. Rebuild it. Elide is curvy and has full breasts, but she flattens them by binding them with bandages to avoid attracting unwanted male attention. Her Second, her cousin, her friend, smiled, eyes bright as stars. We never saw she got it anything out of it. I'm probably the only one who thinks this but I personally hate Elide and Lorcan. Indeed, after spending time with Elide, Lorcan shifts from someone who destroys for the sake of it to someone who defends what he loves. Again. Chaol is riding his horse, Farasha .
