My only critique of this book was that the pacing felt slow at times. Some other reviewers had issues with the world-building being too simple/simplified, but I didn't mind that. This was a beautiful book regardless and I'm glad that I finally read it.

I ADORED the ending. It was excellently written. ❤️ Lucen's character development was wonderfully executed and I loved it!!

'Fighting is a noble pursuit, but a foolish one. To be brave enough to ask for help is knightly,' he said. 'Do you understand?'

I love this dialogue from Lord Brenet. It's thought-provoking and an interesting point.

Awww. I'm having a lot of happy feels about Ash and Lucen's relationship improving and developing. Talk about heartwarming!! 😁

'You are kind, you are loyal to your friends, and you stand up against bullies. That is knightly.'

Awww. I love this dialogue from Anders. I'm glad that he had Splinter's back all along. 😁🥰

I like what Splinter said about how Calinor was for everyone after Vance spewed his bigoted crap.

Hooray for Splinter and Ash being badass together and working as a team!!

I'm fascinated by the dynamic between Ash and Merewen. I'm curious to see if they'll become friends. Or is that possible after Ash tricked Merewen and ruined her trust?

I appreciated Ash's compassion towards Merewen during that chapter. Then at the end of the chapter she was a force. Hooray for girl power!!!

Ash was her home.

What a lovely way to describe Splinter's friendship with Ash. 💜
