I love how wild she is and her attitude towards Manon is superb. As Manon's second (and cousin) she obviously is obliged to listen to her and not to challenge her, but I adore how Asterin isn't afraid to challenge orders. The scene in QoS where Asterin walks into the kitchen in Morath is fab. You can feel her dominance radiating out the book and when she starts washing up with Elide, it's fantastic. I know Ironteeth witches are meant to be born heartless, but I find Asterin a really likable and amusing character.

So we don't get to know much about how witches work. Like every witch that is pregnant brings a female witch to the world, right? So I don't get ( help me here ) why Elide seems to have this "watered-down" witch blood. How does this work ? With whom do witches have to sleep to lessen the witch blood in the line further down ? And then of course the opposite: with whom do the witches have to sleep in order to conceive a witch like Manon or Asterin. And what about the witches that come directly from Valg-Fae mating together ? I'm just really curious and want to know more about witches in Empire of Storms. Please tell me what you think!

I agree. I really hope they put something about that in EoS. There is many different ways that she could be half witch but I'm guessing either her dad or mom was a witch and the other parent wasn't just like if Asterin actually had her child it would probably be half witch.

I like to think he was indestructible and has upgraded(?) due to magic being free

Elide's parents were Lady Marion, Aelin's nursemaid, and Lord Cal Lochan of Terrasen. It talks about this in Heir of Fire. From my understanding, witches are only female. A witch uses a human male to breed witchlings. I'm guessing that they can have boys more rarely, but they aren't witchlings. They are just boys with some witch blood. So maybe Lady Marion has a male witchling ancestor...

My understanding is that Mort was in the stone castle part of the Castle. The old part way down, so he would not have been destroyed when the glass castle shattered. As far as we know, he should be fine, right?

To be sassy and rude to Celaena and to be a smart-ass and not tell her vital parts of her quest.

I guess that now he can guide Dorian to rule the kingdom. Maybe he knows more and it's still not over and now he will help?

Ok, tell me what you guys think about this kid (Trevor Moran). Personally, I think he looks like Hollin or Roland.

We need a ship name for the Wyverns then!


Okay same! I loved Sorscha so much and I was so shook when she died.
