They’d held a parley on the drawbridge with Crown Prince Gorthan, who darted a guilty look at Celia and offered, in a stilted way, to marry her after all.
“No, all in all, I think I’d prefer to just have your throne,” Celia said, icily, before Father could even answer.

HAHAHA

“Elithyon slowly lowered his spear and shield, almost a little puzzled, or maybe deflated; the solution surely wasn’t grand and tragic enough for him”

Dramatis😒

Got a taste of their own medicine

“Eislaing too loved her people, and the quiet folk. But if she had asked such a thing of me, to let her die unavenged, forgotten, could I have granted her plea? It would have been only a bitter sorrow to know that, in her final hour, I caused her any grief. Why should you wound him so?”
!!!

“It was their fault, the whole war was their fault: Gorthan and his father following in Sherdan’s footsteps, and Elithyon chasing after his own hungry vengeance, with all the same selfishness and pride. She wanted them dead, not satisfied and crowned with power; and if she couldn’t kill them herself, she did want someone else to kill them”
REAL SHI

ARGENTTTTT

So he’d insulted her in what he’d thought was a safe and petty way, the way a mortal lord could insult his wife with impunity, to make himself feel more powerful”
🫩

He glared at her, and then looked at the window and back, and snarled at her, “Do you think I have made a false oath, then? You imagine that you could win my heart?”
“What did you think I’d do?” she said, edging back as far as she could against the pillows. “Throw myself out the window?”
😭if ur not trying to die then ur trying to win me ahh guy LMMAOO

“Celia’s heart was pounding in fear as Elithyon dragged her up behind him, no matter what he’d said. What if he forgot by the time they got upstairs?”

WAKAKA
