Finished the second novella the assassin and the healer. Each novella seems to be showing how Celaena goes against type. In this one, her helping Yrene like she did even though she seemed resistant at first once again is displaying her empathy for others. Also perhaps not the last time we meet Yrene.

First novella done. I am guessing each of these novellas have a point to them. To introduce us to Celaena or see her backstory but also to show something about her core character. The first one with the Pirate Lord is likely showing us even though Arobynn has raised her since she was 8, she has her own moral compass. She basically ends up disobeying him and bringing Sam along for the ride. Will see how that turns out
