Why is no one’s signet a venin detector? Could Sloane’s be one, since she deals with energy transfers?

[imacat331]

I read a theory that the reason Dain’s signet is retrocognition is because he never knew what his mom was like, especially since General Aetos would never talked about her…

…maybe, instead of wanting the power to interrogate, to know everything, all he wanted was the ability to see her.

I am unwell

Recovered correspondence from Her Grace Cadet Violet Sorrengail, 16th Duchess of Tyrrendor, to His Grace Lieutenant Xaden Riorson, 16th Duke of Tyrrendor

[imacat331]

I cannot WAIT to see a correspondence with Violet’s full title -

Her Grace Cadet Violet Sorrengail, 16th Duchess of Tyrrendor

I think the missing riders along with Xaden and Garrick are Bodhi and Aaric.

Bodhi’s with Xaden because they’re now both Venin and are under sage command.

Bodhi would still be an initiate, but I think Xaden’s sage will use Bodhi as blackmail to get Xaden to train (the more Xaden channels, the less Bodhi will have to)

Garrick is out with the missing dragon eggs to the Dunne isle to barter, after Aaric had a vision that they needed their army to win.

Aaric is back in his father’s palace, trying to convince the king to do/not do something, also after a vision of the future.

I need more about Imogen, Dain, Bodhi and Quinn as a squad. I wanna know what their first year was like. What happened during their RSC. What their dragons’ dynamic is like. I need MOREEE

Violet is lowkey an unreliable narrator, especially in terms of how badass she is. I’m rereading IF right now and am on the scene where they’re hiking with the flyers, and girlie really:

almost got shoved completely off a cliff by a flyer she was trying to help,

had to hold two people from free falling off said cliff,

lost one of the people she was trying to save,

dislocated her shoulder,

got blamed for the flyer’s death by her man’s bitchy ass ex-girlfriend who both has it out for her and major political standing,

watched a healthy gryphon die triggering her (unresolved) emotions of Liam’s death,

watched Ridoc get shot in the chest,

gets her shoulder put back in,

and then proceeded to fight off 4 wyvern?

Girl? All of this likely took place in the span of 10 minutes.

I have a feeling that the Krovalan Uprising has something to do with the re-emergence of venin. Why would Asher Sorrengail be researching it?

Imogen Cardulo for fourth wing wing-leader

CORRECTION-

It’s not just Xaden, it’s all of the marked ones. The way Garrick and Bodhi counter signets, keep cadets safe and go head to head w Carr. The way Imogen trains marked ones including Sloane….I love them

I feel like we don’t appreciate how good of a teacher Xaden is.

In a place known to kill cadets left and right? Where professors do nothing to stop it? This is what an actual teacher would do - train, and keep them safe while they do.

I’m scared to read Haymitch’s story. I fear once I read it, I will never be the same

[imacat331]

I. need. more. backstory!!!

Why is his signet memory reading? What happened in his childhood that made him need to have that power?

Does it have something to do with his dad? Or his mom?

I need more Dain backstory!! Where is his mom? Did he view General Sorrengail as one? Does he grieve her like one?

Knowing that would make the Dain x Sloane ship SO much juicier.

Is anyone else just waiting for the day when Violet figures out how to use her dagger throwing skills with her lightning?

Making a list of people who (I think) aren’t actually dead:

Naolin

Asher Sorrengail (changed my mind, I think he is dead, only I think died bc he was murdered, not by a natural cause)

Dain’s mom

And a list of people I think will be killed off:

Rhiannon (in book 4)

Brennan (in the last book)

Bodhi (in the last book)

Melgren (in book 4)

King Tauri (? Maybe?)
