I was really surprised when I found out Scythe Faraday was alive. Citra had shot a figure in the dark only to find out it was Scythe Faraday to begin with. "Scythe Faraday's face was a mask of pain and disbelief." After all this time, I'm too shocked to even believe that this is how to book would go.

I was surprised when Rowan just completely shattered Citra's neck. During a spar with Rowan and Citra, with 10 seconds to spare, Rowan ends it with an illegal move, snapping the neck. " "You fell into my trap," he said. "Now you get what you deserve." Then he flung her body into the air, twisting her head the other way. Her neck broke with a loud and horrible snap..." I still find it pretty brutal to 'win' like that.

I found it really surprising that Scythe Faraday had gleaned himself for the sake of Citra or Rowan's life. The event was such a shock to everyone that The High Blade Xenocrates had come to share the news. "The High Blade took a deep breath in, and sighed. 'He invoked the seventh commandment,' Xenocrates said. 'Scythe Faraday has gleaned himself.' I still find it astounding that Scythe Faraday would do such a thing.

I was surprised when Scythe Faraday kept his calm and let Citra wear his ring. She was curious and picked it up, not knowing he watched. The text reads "Then, when she glanced at the scythe, she could see that his eyes were open, and watching here. She froze, knowing she was caught...[text skip for more character use.]...'Would you like to try it on?' Scythe Faraday asked..." I still find it odd that he was merciful.
