My arrow looses through the air, quick as a wing beat, and buries itself in Nándor’s throat.
Would she have been able to have a shot at that part of him when he was behind his brother to threaten to cut his throat? I dunno about the mechanics of this, but whatever, I guess.
So much of this book breaks immersion because things happen when the author needs them to rather than following logic and a train of actions.
Like, Evike could have logically killed Nandor way before, in the room she was staying in at the palace, by damaging his hands then moving to his throat. There was nothing stopping her but plot contrivance. The author wanted her to use the skill she cultivated to kill him so that's what happened.
