I’m close to the end which is sad but I’m just loving the imagery, the description, the relationships strengthening, and the conversations in this series! Xaden and Violet have came so far and ugh can’t get enough of their moments together, easy and difficult, that’s what makes a relationship. Alsooo, Xaden has a second signet?! (1st is shadow weilder, what’s the other???) 😮🤭

Okay so, Violet went behind Xaden’s back to get a luminary? From this tecarsus guy who’s shady. Xaden was already there when she arrived and was not pleased but basically, she wielded her lighting to kill a venin who WAS NOT expected in return for them bringing 100 gryphon rider cadets to Aretia for training + the luminary. I can’t wait till Violet can wield at her full control :) and hoping they win this war!

The war is here. And Violet is insanely bruised and broken from professor Varrish’s interrogation. But the cat is out of the bag…everyone knows there is a war against the creatures who were a myth. But everyone is alive..so far. And Xaden & Violet have finally said “I love you” !!! :))

WHAT. First off, knowing that the professors of Basgiath are corrupt is not good…they know Violet is a lightning weilder which is very powerful but they use it to manipulate and torture herself. they know that she knows they’re not telling the truth about what is out there. Gryphons aren’t killing civilians, vernin are. She can’t tell her friends. And she’s still in love with Xaden but can’t tell him yet

Wow a lot has happened already since the last book. Violet is now a second year and having a hell of a hard time in school under corrupt leadership. Many threats, secrets, and lies. Her and Xaden are a bit on the fence right now about trust but I have a feeling he’ll win her back! Oh and Andarna has been growing to an adolescence now, very grumpy and her scales are now black like Tairn’s.
