"Fey women cannot kill, not even to defend their lives. Their natural empathy prevents it." Wow, do I hate everything about those sentences. There's been some weird gender stuff going on in this book, but that sums up the undercurrents really well.

Ugh, I want to shake these characters for being idiots. And not in a good way. The Tairen Soul is too busy getting mad at everyone to properly play politics, while Ellie doesn't have much personality and doesn't want to accept how her life has changed. They're making things worse for themselves
