Kindle Notes & Highlights
And when Galan Ashryver rode off into the sunset, off to war and glory and to fight for good and freedom, she lingered on that roof until he was a speck in the distance.
“Rowan.” His tattoo seemed to soak up the sun, so dark it looked freshly inked.
Ahhhhhhhyhhhh
Because Celaena was Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, heir to the throne and rightful Queen of Terrasen.
“—is from my sister Mora’s bloodline. He is my nephew of sorts, and a member of my household. An extremely distant relation of yours; there is some ancient ancestry linking you.”
waaaaaaiiiiiit soooooo you’re telling me they are technically related and don’t they get together in the end??????????
Orrr am I confused?!?!
“Show me,” Maeve whispered with a spider’s smile. Run. Run.
Do we trust her??
“To what end?”
Ahhhh is this the famous line
No other coven was needed if the Thirteen were present.
Rowan must have received, and how it must have ruffled his feathers
Foreshadowing?
Let Rowan think she was spoiled and selfish. She was, but she wanted sore muscles and blistered hands and to fall into bed so exhausted she wouldn’t dream, wouldn’t think, wouldn’t feel much of anything.
He doesnt know half the life she has lived and lost
Mate—not husband. The Fae had mates: an unbreakable bond, deeper than marriage, that lasted beyond death.
“I don’t think you particularly want to see how angry and vicious and awful I am underneath.”
“Go ahead and be as nasty as you want, Princess, because I’ve been ten times as nasty, for ten times longer than you’ve been alive.”
Why is that kinda hot :/
“Shut your smart-ass mouth and shift.”
Damn!!!!
“No.”
Girl you are wild for that
“We are the Thirteen, from now until the Darkness claims us.” She said it quietly, but knew all could hear her. “Let’s remind them why.”
“Aelin is alive.”
Why would you tell him?!?!
“There you are.”
Okaaaaay how he says it, it's kinda hot
“The people you love are just weapons that will be used against you.”
“You would probably have been more useful to the world if you’d actually died ten years ago.”
I'm sorry… who says that?!?
“I can see very well what happened, and know exactly how it’s done,” she said, stomach tightening. Not at the injury, but—Sam. Sam had been strapped to a table, cut open and broken by one of the most sadistic killers she’d ever known.
im crying
“No,” he said at last. “I am old, but not that old.”
Im dying hahaah
As she dusted the block off, an image emerged of a stag with a glowing star between its antlers, so like the one in Terrasen.
who held an immortal flame between their massive antlers and who had once been stolen from a temple in this land
instantly cold as she severed contact with the delightful heat living within the stone. Part of her could have sworn that ancient, strange power was sad to see her go.
Arobynn had ordered Sam tortured and killed, and then devised a trap for Celaena that got her hauled off to Endovier.
Still breaks my heart
Those human bastards cut off your spikes, so I’m going to build some for you. Iron ones. Like mine,”
how to train your dragon moment
“you and I are going to learn how to fly. And then we’ll stain this kingdom red.”
Badass
Her mother had called her Fireheart.
“This is because she is going to be hunted, Rhoe. For her whole life, Maeve and others will hunt her for this power—”
Soooo do we not trust Maeve?
He’d burn the library, the city, or the whole world to ashes if she asked him.
“You know, it might be better if you just slapped me instead.”
No no no no
“You left me,”
“I have no one left. No one.”
Ugh my heart aches for her
“There is nothing that I can give you. Nothing I want to give you. You are not owed an explanation for what I do outside of training. I don’t care what you have been through or what you want to do with your life. The sooner you can sort out your whining and self-pity, the sooner I can be rid of you. You are nothing to me, and I do not care.”
ASSHOLE
It would have been nice to have one person who knew the absolute truth about her—and didn’t hate her for it.
With each step she took back to her room, that flickering light inside of her guttered. And went out.
Why are you crying, Fireheart?
It had been ten years—ten long years since she had heard her mother’s voice. But she heard it then over the force of her weeping, as clear as if she knelt beside her.
Fireheart—why do ...
This highlight has been truncated due to consecutive passage length restrictions.
“Because I am lost,” she whispered onto the earth. “And I do not know the way.”
Oh i am sobbing
But she did notice the crawling on the branches, spiders of every shape and size, as if they had all been summoned here to live under the protection of their massive brethren.
Yeah not a fan
Manon threw the meat away.
Honestly love the idgaf attitude
“First thing,” he breathed, “we’re not friends. I’m still training you, and that means you’re still under my command.” The flicker of hurt must have shown, because he leaned closer, his grip tightening on her jaw. “Second—whatever we are, whatever this is? I’m still figuring it out, too. So if I’m going to give you the space you deserve to sort yourself out, then you can damn well give it to me.”
Ahhhhhh thats hot
Aelin Fireheart,
Aelin of the Wildfire.
“Who did that to you?”
“A lot of people. I spent some time in the Salt Mines of Endovier.”
“How long?”
“A year. I was there a year before … it’s a long story.”
“You were a slave.”
