“They will not use our tears for their entertainment” (28).

“It still goes… don’t let them use you” (34).

“I’m grateful for her final gift. That she’s denied Plutarch the chance to broadcast our farewell.
The moment our hearts shattered? It belongs to us” (35).

“She was going to build a new world.
All this she would do, when she sat on Parijadvipa's throne. But first, she thought quietly, savagely, to herself, as the men around her kneeled and shouted her name. Malini. Malini.
Mother Malini. Empress Malini.

I am going to find my emperor brother. I am going to make Chandra kneel before his peers, humili-aed and broken. And I am going to watch him burn.”

“royal women are only crowned in death”

OHHH FUCK YEAHH

“brothers” she’ll kill both of them??

he doesn’t remember

The moment I saw you, I felt a tug. You are the feeling of falling, the tidal waters, the way a living thing will always turn, seeking light. isn't that I think you are good or kind, or even that I love you. It is only that, the moment saw you, i knew i would seek you out. Just as I sought the deathless waters. Just as I sought my brother. Just as i seek all things — without thought, with nothing but want.

there so much to say about page 441 & the beginning of 442 i cant even describe how beautifully written this chapter is

“Priya placed her own hand over Malini's. She felt Malini flinch like a hound used to the lash.”
WOAHHHH

BHUMIKA !!!!!

WHAT WHAT WHAY HER RIBS !?? WHAT

“I would.”

“Why would you want me? Why would you follow me into the water, and hold my heart, and hold my heart and speak to me in a voice like that, like you're yearning for me?”

“Malini was tilting her face up, kissing her with a fury that melted into sweetness, with a tenderness that was strong as lifeblood, and burned. Burned.”

“and— silence”

HOLY SHIT !!!

“…It would be frivolous and stupid and... it wouldn't help anyone I've lost. Or summon any kind of luck. But it would be like a cry against the void. And that would be what some of the people I've lost would have wanted..." Priya waled off. "I’m not usually frivolous. But that’s why it's a want,"

it would only be a comfort something she hasn’t aloud herself to have in a very long time

“Malini raised a hand, brushing her knuckles against the swelling of Priya's cheek. Her fingers trembled, still. Priya could feel the sting of the touch. It burned through her blood, sang, and she thought, Oh.
Oh no.
This was more than simple fascination. This was attraction and it was... not remotely convenient” (183)”

love a “oh OH” moment!!!

"There's the brother I know. The vicious bastard who once beat me blue to impress our elders. To prove himself strongest. You think being called a whore shames me? You think you haven't bartered your body for your own ends?
What do you think pouring death down your throat is?” (168)
