There is something profound in the way Nona the Ninth deals with forgiveness.
The fact that this exchange between Nona and Hot Sause
Happens only two chapters before this line from John:
It feels telling.
Nona makes herself vonenerable for the chance to experience forgiveness in a way that John will not risk.
So Nona received something that John never can have.
I think that moment might be a turning point.
Up till now all, Alecto has only realy known John and his view of humanity. But now, after being Nona...maybe Alecto can understand forgiveness. And maybe she can leave some of her fury behind.
Maybe Hot Sause, in a tinny broom closet, on a fair away planet, has indelibly changed the World
