Kindle Notes & Highlights
He had never learned anything about the mark that had glowed on her head during the duel. The Wyrdmark was impossible to decipher. It either meant “nameless” or “unnamed,” or something akin to “anonymous.”
COM - namlesssssssss
This morning, King Orlon Galathynius, his nephew and heir, Rhoe Galathynius, and Rhoe’s wife, Evalin, were found assassinated. Orlon was murdered in his bed at the royal palace in Orynth, and Rhoe and Evalin were found dead in their beds at their country estate along the River Florine. There is no word yet about the fate of Rhoe and Evalin’s daughter, Aelin.
COM - devastating still
Aelin Galathynius, heir to the throne of Terrasen, died today, or sometime in the night. Before help could reach her deceased parents’ estate, the assassin who had missed her the night before returned. Her body has still not been found, though some believe it was thrown into the river behind her parents’ house.
COM - screaming besties
Celaena Sardothien wasn’t in league with Aelin Ashryver Galathynius. Celaena Sardothien was Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, heir to the throne and rightful Queen of Terrasen.
COM - GOT EM
keeping well away from the white-tailed hawk that had been perched atop a nearby chimney all morning, waiting to snatch up its next meal.
HOF - YOU SURE ABOUT THAT
But then a deep male voice chuckled from the shadows behind her.
HOF - yeah thanks
a wicked-looking tattoo was etched down the left side of his harsh face, the whorls of black ink stark against his sun-kissed skin.
HOF - OOF
she realized he might have been handsome were it not for the promise of violence in his pine-green eyes.
Liar
“Rowan.”
R O W A N
“I’m trying, Chaol.”
HOF - sweet Dorian deserved everything
Because Celaena was Aelin Ashryver Galathynius, heir to the throne and rightful Queen of Terrasen.
HOF - yeah she is !!!!!!
Aedion Ashryver—the King of Adarlan’s infamous General of the North and cousin to Aelin Galathynius—stalked into the Great Hall.
HOF - my love!!!!
the Bane—Aedion’s legion—was notorious for its skill and brutality,
HOF - imagine being so good your legion has a name
Because she was Manon Blackbeak, heir to the Blackbeak Witch-Clan,
HOF - HOT HOT HOT
“Hello, Aelin Galathynius.”
HOF - SHAKING IN MY BOOTS
Maeve had been there—had been there at the dawn of this world during the Valg wars. She had held the Wyrdkeys.
HOF - mother
“I wish you to become who you were born to be. To become queen.”
Same
“Like I said,” Rowan sneered down at her, “you have a lot to learn. About everything.”
HOF - flirting
And when you were one of Manon’s Thirteen, with whom she had fought and flown for the past hundred years … Often just the name of the coven was enough to send enemies fleeing. The Thirteen did not have a reputation for mercy—or making mistakes.
HOF - i want to be them so bad
“Baba Yellowlegs is dead.”
Lamooooo
“My name is Elentiya.”
someone give her a hug
That was vomit on her shirt and pants. And then there was … She’d wet herself.
HOF - cute first date ideas
“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.”
HOF - why am I crying
The whoops and cackles of her Thirteen as they rode the current were finer than any mortal music.
HOF - actual tears in my eyes
but short of ripping out my tongue, you can’t—” Faster than lightning, his hand shot out and she gagged, jolting as he grabbed her tongue between his fingers. She bit down, hard, but he didn’t let go. “Say that again,” he purred. She choked as he kept pinching her tongue,
HOF - Rowan I LOVE you for this
And that’s when he bit her.
HOF - YES
Rowan grinned. “There you are.”
HOF - stop it I’m warm
A pulse beat against her, nipping, smelling of snow and pine. Rowan’s power, taunting hers. Not like her fire, but a gift of ice and wind.
HOF - I’m screaming
“Why don’t you just bite me again?”
“Why don’t I give you the lashing you deserve?” He looked so dead set on it that she blinked. “If you ever take a whip to me, I will skin you alive.”
HOF - GOOD
Rowan paused his stalking. “You’re worthless.” “Tell me something I don’t know.” He went on, “You would probably have been more useful to the world if you’d actually died ten years ago.” She just looked him in the eye and said, “I’m leaving.”
HOF - actually so savage
“Because she is dead!” She screamed the last word so loudly it burned in her throat. “Because she is dead, and I am left with my worthless life!”
Hof - give her a hug!!!!
The bait beast, bleeding from his side, heaved himself into the shadows by the wall, waiting for the next assault.
HOF - cry
“If you want him so badly,” Iskra whispered, and Manon realized she was still standing beside her, now only a step away, “why don’t you go get him?” And before Manon could move—before anyone could, because they were all enthralled by that glorious beast—iron claws shoved into her back.
HOF - Iskra is trash
A threat—a promise. The bait beast wanted a shot at Titus. Allies. If only for this moment.
HOF - my love
this wyvern before her … he was a warrior.
HOF- BABY
“He’s mine.”
HOF - my loveeeeeee
Manon named her wyvern Abraxos,
HOF - Abraxos ❤️
He shouldered it—which she supposed meant he was in a good mood, as she’d fully expected to play pack mule on their way to wherever they were going.
HOF - a gentleman
He gave her braid a sharp, painful tug. “Unless you’re still frightened.”
HOF - why do I love in books when women get their hair pulled in a playful way????
Her mother had called her Fireheart.
HOF - the whimper I just let out
“Eat it,” she said, shaking the freezing meat at Abraxos, who was now lying on his belly in the meadow, huffing at the first grasses and flowers to poke through the melting ice.
HOF - Abraxos is the sweetest boy
Abraxos sniffed at a cluster of purple flowers,
“You can’t really like flowers.”
I most certainly do,
It was thanks to Abraxos, the flower-loving worm,
Abraxos was still lying on his belly, sniffing the wildflowers,
Rowan still appeared in his hawk form—and there were some nights when she even sat beside the back door, and Rowan sidled a bit closer, too.
HOF - O_O
