I need to hear everyone's theories!!!

Mine are:

1. Brennan is Venin!
2. Noalin is still alive
3. Bohdi is the other venin.
4. Tairn and Sgaeyl's bond is broken



I'm so convinced Brennan is venin, i've changed the spelling of his name Brenin!! :)

Tiffany RY confirmed that Brennan is not venin.

Ich würde sagen, dass Liam der andere Veneni ist. Xaden hat erwähnt, dass er tot sein sollte. Bodhi hingegen sollte nicht tot sein, und er war vor etwa 30 Minuten noch mit Cuir und Imogen zusammen. Erinnerst du dich daran, als Jack seinen Drachen getötet hat? Was, wenn Liam dasselbe getan hat?
Tairn und Sgaeyl sind für immer verbunden – wag es ja nicht, mir das Herz zu brechen! 😭 Aber ich glaube, dass Tairns Verbindung zu Violet verletzt ist. Andarna hat Violet verteidigt, und Tairn hat nicht einmal mit ihr gesprochen.
Tut mir leid, dass ich auf Deutsch schreibe. Ich habe Flammengeküsst nicht auf Englisch gelesen.


1. Bond is definitely broken. Othwise the whole thing about Andarna bring able to break all magical bonds is just wasted.
2. I'm still not convinced he is venin, its more likely they have was revived as a result of dark magic and has been tainted in some way. If he was venin Andarna would immediately know now so.... I don't buy this one yet.
3. The big bad venin is ancient. Does he have an ancient dragon kept alive by magic and corrupted by magic? Is that dragon one of Tairns forefathers? It would be fitting to bring into question Tairns pride in his family line. Maybe that will be tairns ultimate battle in the final book.
4. I hope dreamwalking is not going to be used for dream sex but we all know it is.
5. I'm going to say naolin is dead, he may have turned venin to save brenan BUT Tairn killed him after that. That would explain his deep rooted hate for the venin and the way he refers to xaden. Also to sorrow for the previous rider as it was a double loss in that he intentilly killed his rider to end the bond and save is pride and integrity as the dragon he sees himself to be.


1. I am 100% convinced that naolin is venin and turned when bringing Brennan back from the dead, I also think they had a little thing going on if you get what I mean and that Brennan is eventually going to betray everyone for him.
2. Garrick is venin. So hear me out for this, in onyx storm during Imogen’s pov while she was with Quinn, the stones around them started losing their colour and then all of a sudden Garrick appears. I think he was deffo draining them of energy( unintentionally obvi)

Kimberly 1) I agree with everything except that Brennan is going to betray everyone for him.
2) I thought the exact same thing about the stones when I read tha

1) Naolin is alive and venin, I think he turned when saving Brennan and this affected Brennan in some way that hasn't completely came to light yet.
2) Garrick is the "brother" Theophanie was speaking about.
3) Theophanie is "Lyra" one of the first six riders. I also think there was originally 7 riders, one for each breed and we just haven't found out anything about them yet since almost everything we know is from Violet's POV.
4) Tairn and Sgaeyl's bond is broken.
5) Dain will retrieve Violet's memories that Imogen had her forget. However, I don't think he will do it until Violet asks for him to as he doesn't want to "violate" her again.

1. Brennan is the venin. He has a good case as to why he’s guilty, and every other suspect doesn’t fit one of the requirements!

2. Violet is not just a dream walker. Other than for talking to Xaden in book four, (I see you, Yarros) dreamwalking is a pretty useless signet. She could even be misinformed through it, as Harry Potter was in book five. I don’t think the irids would call it “the most dangerous power of all”

3. Someone within the four way bond is gonna die, and I think it might be Tairn. I also think it might be Xaden. Maybe both.

4. I think venin society and dragons are more connected than we think, and Xaden will provide us with that information through POV chapters (hopefully).

5. Naolin is a venin and is still alive. (This furthers the idea that Brennan is a venin as well)


Why do you guys thing Sgaeyl and Tairn's bond is broken? If I remember correctly their bond was solid regardless of having riders or not.

Also, they have mentioned several times that Violet will change for love, do we think she will turn venin in the next book?
