GuardianEvie&Odessa are riding toTreow Guardian tells her more abt the lyssa infecting the animals giving them green blood Guardian was bitten&is only person infected Treow gets attacked by2 infected big cats Odessa saves a bunch of children TheVoster high priest tells the guardian that they tracked the lyssa is man made meaning some1 is infecting animals & attackingTurah Guardian letsOdessa help him find the person

I just want to put here that I am loving this book It is so difficult to put down because I just want to read on Odessa has so many questions that I want answered & everyone is so tight lipped abt information especially abt Allesaria&the king burning books She basically has nothing to tell her father & im happy abt that but that just shows how much there is to learn
Also this is a slow burn The tension ugh
cmon boi

The king burned books in this city too Odessa runs into Cathlin who I feel is up to something tho she is sweet Ashmore gets attacked by sick bariwolves Guardian fights them&Odessa helps Don’t know what the sickness is TheGuardian brings Odessa to Ellder She’s there alone but Evie keeps her company Evie takes her to a cave w scrolls ran by Cathlin Zavier&Guardian return Odessa resumes training

They make itTreow a treehouse camp thing&she settles in there w Tillia Zander leaves her there&theGaurdian sporadically leaves&returns Zander has a secret baby WOMPWOMP He is so quiet Odessa&Guardian has way more chemistry I hope thatGuardian is another prince bc I’m bored ofZander Odessa sneaks out ofTreow to a nearby town to get info onAllesaria bc no1 is giving her answers She makes it but theGuardian finds her

Randomly chosen to marry Zander Father gives her a spy mission to find Allesaria so he can find smth that will stop the migrations On boat to Turan & Zander finally speaks & the Guardian is always finding her & talking to her They save her from a marroweel The Guardian starts training her to fight They make it to land & ride horses to campsites
