How come the Darkling doesn't realize he's surrounded by Grisha aboard Stormhund's ship? Do amplifiers have to literally touch other people in order to know if they are Grisha?
Yes. And skin to skin touch is also how Grisha identify human amplifiers.

A track list for Shadow...
"Make Me Your Villain"
A track list for Shadow and Bone, the first installment in The Grisha Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo. In the parentheses after the title of the song is the couple or character to whom the song relates.
Louder Than Words by Les Friction (whole book in general)- We have the force to fight, we have the blinding light. A war is more than heard, coming in louder than words. Everybody’s Fool by Evanescence (Alina/Darkling)- I know the truth now. I know who you are, and I don’t love you anymore. It never was and never will be. You don’t know how you betrayed me, and somehow you’ve got everybody fooled. I’m Alive by Shinedown (The Darkling)- I’m a slap in the face to your lullaby. Got you all tongue-tied ‘cause you’re livin’ a lie, my friend…I’m your wake-up call and you know I’m right. It’s Not Me It’s You by Skillet (Alina/Darkling)- Let’s get the story straight, you were a poison flooding through my veins, driving me insane. Think Twice by Eve 6 (Mal)- When all is said and done and dead, does he love you the way that I do?..Think twice before you touch my girl. Come around and I’ll let you feel the burn. Give Me A Sign by Breaking Benjamin (Alina/Darkling)- I’ll keep you alive if you show me the way. Forever and ever the scars will remain. I’m falling apart. Leave me here forever in the dark. From Heads Unworthy by Rise Against (The Darkling)- As their castles crumble slowly, we watch them fall. The crown slips from heads unworthy and right onto ours, but I’m after you. Everything And Nothing by Red (Alina/Mal)- Still the same pursuing pain, is it worth all that I’ve gained? We both know how it will end, but I’d do it again…. the war within me pulls me under and without you the fight inside is breaking me again. Just A Little Girl by Trading Yesterday (Alina/Darkling)- So go ahead and bat your eyes and lie right to the world, for with everything you are, you’re just a little girl.
Click on the crappy photo I did (lol I don’t do graphic crap) to listen to the playlist! Enjoy!

Grisha Army Challenge 6 of 25 → Corporalki
The Corporalki are considered the most valuable soldiers, and consequently, they are the highest ranking Grisha. A Corporalki Heartrender can snatch the air from your lungs, slow your pulse until you drop into a coma, or literally crush your heart in your chest—all without ever laying a finger on you. Healers put you right again.
love. this.

"All those years ago," she said softly. "Before he’d ever dreamed of a Second Army, before he gave up his name and became the Darkling, he was just a brilliant, talented boy.”
