XXI Elias
- [ ] Oh no! He’s home!! They are so evil! I can’t believe they were in Gib and Afya. Was it all a distraction to keep Elias away so they could burn his home? How awful!
- [ ] Why does turn Mauth leave him! He really needs to find out how to control and keep it within him

XXII The Blood Shrike
- [ ] Oh no Helene! Knowing your powers drains your energy why didn’t you ask Dex to walk with you! Argh now you’re hurt!
- [ ] But I was so proud to see her healing those children
- [ ] Gosh I hope she is okay

XXIII Laia
- [ ] Ah so that’s how he watches and listens through the wights! Very clever indeed
- [ ] And it looks like Musa knows of love! Could it be the princess or her guard, can’t remember her name. Maybe the guard?
- [ ] I hope this song told will help Laia
- [ ] But it all makes sense what Musa said, the more he relied on his power, the more it changed him into his worker self, a tyrant. That’s exactly what’s happening to Laia! She’s replying to much on it and it’s changing her.
- [ ] I really want to know who that woman is in the vision. Could it be the Nightbringer’s wife?

XXIV Elias
- [ ] Oh no! Elias will lose himself as Soul Catcher! Argh whyyyyy! Why can’t things work out for them 😭😭

XXV The Blood Shrike
- [ ] Hmmmmm! Helene must be valuable to the Nighbringer’s success, perhaps her healing power is meant to help him. The scar is now a star, maybe it’s a sign of something? Perhaps she has power to help him defeat Laia? Just thinking aloud
- [ ] Wow Cook is really following her everywhere, she is pretty shift
- [ ] Who knows how Helene will kill the Commandant if she has to become like her

XXVI Laia
- [ ] Oh my gosh!!! Just as they get information given it’s in flames!
- [ ] Those poor people, the Kehanni! How awful
- [ ] This is not looking good

XXVII Elias
- [ ] Oh my, for once I feel sorry for the jinn, to be betrayed by one of their own, and then Shaeva to be betrayed by the Scholar King, the one she fell for
- [ ] Oh no, because he has no magic Elias needs to bond with Mauth fully, meaning losing his humanity, everything that ties him down to Earth, Laia, Helene, Mamie Rila. This is soo depressing!

XXVIII The Blood Shrike
- [ ] Ahhhhhhhh I knew it! I knew the Commandant was going to order to have Livy killed!! This is terrible! One small victory and it’s all gone to waste! Please be okay Livy!

XXIX Laia
- [ ] Laia why are you so stupid! Honestly who goes into a burning building for a book she doesn’t not know where to look for!!!
- [ ] So reckless
- [ ] Thank goodness the lady was able to help her and now we know about Helene and what her purpose is to the Nightbringer. Her ring is the last piece, no wonder he saved her he needs to get it off her somehow. But how?

XXX Elias
- [ ] I hate seeing Mask Elias! I know he has too but I hate it! 😭
- [ ] All those undead people! How terrible they have to suffer after death
- [ ] This was such a depressing part, the only good thing that happened was Elias and Laia together for that once brief moment and Harper and Helene being embarrassed as she is getting dressed. Everything else was heartbreaking sad and disappointing and making me angry!

No problem! Although please don’t hate me but I just finished it 🙈
I couldn’t stop reading! It was so good and so intense that I needed to see how it finished!
I won’t upload my thoughts just yet but it was a really good book
So if you have time to binge read, by all means go for it!
But don’t feel pressured to finish it all in one go! I am more than happy to wait and read your thoughts as they come :)

yeah i don't know, it'll definitely be interesting to see who Musa's love is! it could definitely be that guard or the princess, Musa definitely seemed to know the princess really well. i reckon it's her. and yeah, maybe Laia will have to lay off using her powers for a bit!

I really want to know who that woman is in the vision. Could it be the Nightbringer’s wife? I hope this song told will help Laia

yeah i don't know, it's all very mysterious and i'm definitely curious to find out why she's getting these visions and how they're important!

Oh no! Elias will lose himself as Soul Catcher! Argh whyyyyy! Why can’t things work out for them 😭😭

i know 😭 these guys have the worst luck!

Hmmmmm! Helene must be valuable to the Nighbringer’s success, perhaps her healing power is meant to help him. The scar is now a star, maybe it’s a sign of something? Perhaps she has power to help him defeat Laia? Just thinking aloud

well if the Nightbringer knows about her ring, then he must have saved her to try and get Helene one step closer to loving him enough to give him the piece! i don't think it will work though, Helene is too tough and too icy for that haha, i reckon it'll be a tough journey for her to learn to love anyone except Elias. still, he must know that her ring is the last piece...

Oh my, for once I feel sorry for the jinn, to be betrayed by one of their own, and then Shaeva to be betrayed by the Scholar King, the one she fell for

yeah same, i felt kinda bad for them, but they're still such bitches to Elias with the whole 'burn the house down' thing and everything :((

Oh no, because he has no magic Elias needs to bond with Mauth fully, meaning losing his humanity, everything that ties him down to Earth, Laia, Helene, Mamie Rila. This is soo depressing!

yeah i just can't see how these guys will win! it's heartbreaking honestly, there seems to be no way towards Elias and Laia having a proper relationship :(

Thank goodness the lady was able to help her and now we know about Helene and what her purpose is to the Nightbringer. Her ring is the last piece, no wonder he saved her he needs to get it off her somehow. But how?

yeah i'm curious about that woman, she appeared from nowhere and then disappeared again! it'll definitely be interesting to see what happens and if she reappears again. but thank god she helped them! maybe the Nightbringer will bargain with Helene? her ring for his assistance taking down Marcus and saving Livy or something? or even just taking down the Commandant?
