Andreas gives me weird vibes He is from a wealthy Quentis family I feel like he is some1 important Maybe Odessa will know him somehow Maybe he’s the boy she loved as a teen
WOW AVA GOOD THINKING
I feel better knowing that Odessa & Caspia are heading to the same place I was confused how their stories were going to intertwine It was confusing me bc they were going 2 diff directions & they were switching countries

Odessa travels w the Mavins Jodhi is constantly messing w her They encounter lyssa inLaine&she tellsThora all abt it Thora splits up the group They are indebted by sm1 namedSalem The stars represent their debt
Caspia&Andreas travel toOzarth She has fallen in luv w him She has a vision ofXandra killing him inTurah They find a boy from her boat vision Caspia decides 2go2Quentis to save Andreas instead of avenging Emery

Odessa crosses the bogs&attracts the alligasks The warrior fromLuella’s book&Skore’s advice appears She is leader of a mercenary grp I think she can hearOdessa’s thoughts She agrees to take her to Quentis Caspia awakes in a cabin w a manAndreas he’s super nice&fine but there’s smth mysterious abt him Caspia’s senses are heightened so I think she has lyssa like Ransom Her&Andreas r going to travel to Turah

BroSkore brings them to a waterfall He needs Odessa’s sense of magic to find smth He leaves them&tells them how to get toQuentis&to look for a girl warrior They meet a man who will guide them that is from Luella’s book
Caspia&Xander make it to the new land They think it is where the birds migrate every # of years(LIKE THE CRUX!!) They feel sick as they walk thru&encounter bariwolves&Xandra turns into one

BrotherDime&Skore bring Odessa to a cabin by the border They stay w a couple The guy tells a story that Odessa recognizes from Luella’s book Evie is depressed BrotherDime leaves&Skore is teaching her the old language It seems BrotherDime is working against the HighPriestVoster
Caspia feels her ritus calling her to avenge her sis death by killing Ransom&getting answers She hires a ship&is joined by her cousin

Ransom went toTreow& didn’t findOdessa he thinks she’s going to Quentis Odessa&Evie are traveling with BrotherDime they didn’t go to Treow&he is taking her to Ozarth bc he claims it’s her destiny She has Ransom’s cuff map&wants to plan an escape Introduced to Caspia a princess w red curls from another kingdom that has shapeshifter bird women like the one that attacked Ellder She had a vision of the attack

The physician is executed by the king bc he found out he was poisoning him The Senin is here Adan gives her orders&the key to the tunnels She makes it there&is attacked by a Moroi Wellyn She is saved by Gabriel&Henry who released the prisoners&have Enid w them They go to the Loom&Gabriel slices Enid’s throat 😳

How does this book only have 4 chapters left? I don’t expect the to just stroll into the tunnels and grab the Loom! Something has to go down right?! This is just not adding up because it isn’t even Senin yet so maybe something will go wrong & things will get moved up

They sneak Anelize into the castle as a physicians assistant She met the king&hes sick&twisted She over hears the physician talking to the council man about experiments I think they’re turning prisoners intoMoroi Later she follows the physician to the dungeon&finds him taking a Prisoner for experiment She finds Enid Wellyn is prob dead She makes to leave but it captured by a Watchman but it’s Aeric uh oh big mad

There was a raid Anelize went out & witnessed it She found Aeric fighting a watchman & her distraction let a watchman shoot an arrow thru him She kills the watchman & brings Aeric back to life using her powers They bring him back to the tavern & heal him She goes to his room at night to watch over him He wakes up & they kiss & cuddle the night away

She went to the Vedran village to see the remains She stumbled upon the Weaver’s cottage & saw her Her Vedran curse for using her powers is making her vision bad She makes tonics for the prince She learns that an angry mob burned down the apothecary shop which motivated her to master her power She grows closer with every1 especially Aeric :P

She’s Vedran&the aunt snitched on them They took Enid&chased her but she got awa &was saved by the other Vedrans who are planning to sneak into the king’s castl & steal the Weaver’sLoom book to break the curse on the Vedrans & Moroi Ofc the guy she saved is Vedran & A WATCHMAN & the thought to dead crown prince is alive & helping the Vedrans She is going to train to understand her pwr bc her specialty is death

They start the ceremony&the last piece isAsar’s soul bc he is related to Alarus Mische has to finish the spell Atroxus watches her&hands her the arrow She uses it to kill him making night eternal Mische uses her powers to bring Asar back which upsets Nyaxia She leaves b4 the other gods arrive They are outraged&kill Mische Asar is chained by them Mische is in the underworld & Asar plans to get her back WOW

They make it to the gate of SactumSoul There is a field of red poppies&they share a beautiful moment It seemed a lot like goodbye idk if they will survive what they’re going to do Asar says he needs Mische’s help to necromance They pass through&soul is a thin stretch btw the living&the dead worlds Asar’s scars/eye has smth abt it Ophelia find them&Mische is able to calm her&help her pass on likeAsar helpedEomin

I’m scared for Asar & Mische Idk what this resurrection is going to do to them Asar said that they have all the relics&the 5th one will be the Soul Sanctum itself Weird I’m wondering if he just needed to get the arrow meant for Nyaxia&he used gaining the others as cover

Asar&Mische are reflections of each other They both were cast away from their homes & got scars in the process of try to fix broken things

Atroxus visitsMische He’s mad&reminds her she’s a monster by showing herSaescha’s death Mische was Turning&she killedSaescha bc she was so thirsty that’s so traumatic Atroxus says if she completes her mission he will save Saescha&wont killAsar He tells her the relic is there When she wakes she can tell Asar had a visit too They find the relic it is a golden arrow that Alarus was supposed to kill Nyaxia with

They have nothing to do but wait out the wraiths on the other side of the door if the temple where the relic is Luce overexerted herself & needs to rest Asar&Mische find an altar room & do not 0.0
Mische wakes up to Atroxus seeing what she has done w Asar uh oh
I thought Atroxus couldn’t see so far down there bruh I hate his god he pisses me off

The house is attacked by Ophelia&wraiths They see Malach&Saescha Esme holds off the wraiths to let Asar&Mische escape into the next Sactum Secrets takes form of memories of fear/desire They both see different settings They are badly injured they rest in a little Morthryn room&drink from each other :P They go towards the building&inside face Ophelia Malach&Saescha They get thru&see the relic is already gone

Asar takes Mische to the last safety room inMorthryn The walk the thru theDescent to a house where Esme lives She was the last warden of Morthryn&became Asar’s friend/guide The house gives them imaginary comforts&Asar plays the piano for them! He plays a song for Mische that he made thinking of her&kisses her scars&tells her love isn’t supposed to hurt how Atroxus’ does They get interrupted by an explosion BOOM

Mische&Asar make it out of the blood river&run for the temple The relic is guarded by light which burns them both Mische goes in&fights a reflection of herself while Asar fights the wraiths This is a turning point for Mische bc the sun magic isn’t working so she has to embrace the shadows They get the relic &Mische is relieved to see Asar&she feels strongly for him but she looks down sees blood&she passes out

They enter Psyche&Asar gets an Heir Mark bc his dad dies Elias says finally&stabs him&pushes him into the blood rivers Mische jumps in after him&swims thru her memories Chandra pulls her from the blood but Mische jumps back in&leaves Chandra to be eaten by the vampire moms of the babies she sacrificed to Atroxus Mische sees Asar’s memories He necromanced Luce&tried the lady wraith Ophelia but failed&got the scars

Past the lady wraith is the relic guarded by gilded panthers Asar promises to honor their mission&restore the underworld so they let them passby When back@Morthryn Elias freaks bc he recognizes Asar knew the lady wraith&wants to use the relics for pwr against the other houses Asar comforts Mische abt Eomin&they cont to fix gates They are getting close to the psyche sanctum where it can play tricks on their minds

Asar said that Chandra had been in Morthryn as a prisoner for many years because she did something I think she was a midwife&she killed a vampire baby
I was saying that I’m having a little trouble reading this book because it’s hard to visualize where they are and what they’re doing but at the same time I’m getting a hang of it and then something happens and I get confused or thrown off

The gates of the Underworld are breaking so the dead can escape if they eventually collapse Mische helpsAsar repair the gates Mische isShadowborne bc the princeTurned her so she has their magic&for some reason the magic is synergistic withAsar’s Interesting how she is conflicted between the use of magic of theSun and the shadows The make it to the nextSanctumBreath&they run past a soul eater fromAsar’s past

I think it’s funny that as they travel through the levels Morthryn is like a safe room in a video game where you can save the slot and look at your inventory

Reading the Body level was a lot I was having trouble imagining all of it w the blood & mushrooms
Aras says the next levels are harder but hopefully I can better understand them

The first level isBody guarded by a snake lion&bird They are walking on the path&Elias&Chandra get thrown off&Aras&Mische are noticed by guardians&smth else They are knocked down to where the rotting bodies chase them into a structure where the bird is guarding the relic Atroxus set the bird on fire soMische&Chandra stop the fire&they grab the relic which includesAlarus’ memory meetingNyaxia They make it out
