Outside glass castle:
1 Aelin will meet up with ren and chaol (who sees aelin doesn't have his ring *sniff*) and possibly martaugh (honestly I think he'll die but...) learns about what happened at glass castle, and maybe about how the whole magic thing works (if chaol will fucking talk)
Aelin will probably try to get the wryd key first
this is probably how it will go:
Aelin: gimme my necklace
Arrobyn: No.
Aelin: ...
Arrobyn: ...
Aelin: it's mine
Arrobyn: No
Aelin: storms off
Later
Something sam related comes up, Aelin goes batshit.
she faces off arrobyn, she wins, but arrobyn doesn't die just get's crippled
Aelin then goes to get the wryd key, and she either obtains it, or it's gone (or if arrobyn dies he hid it somewhere)
3 Then either saves Aedion, or tries to find the key (depends on the time)
3&2 also might be switched depending on the time
4 either while or after they save aedion battle against dorian occurs & they find a way to take off the collar without harming dorian (they will kidnap him)
5 some bad shit happens
Glass castle:
1 manon & 13 arrive and dorian is asked to show them around, or is asked to do something with them
2 manon thinks dorian smells weird and tries to find out why. while she is also trying to figure out baba yellowlegs murder (the who and why)
while the king is eaching dorian to control his magic (or someone else is) in order to advance his powers (king thinks theres no way to get the collar off without killing im, therefor it is safe to teach him the magical ways)
3 manon learns dorian has magic, and shit happens (she ends up not telling anyone though)
4 together (or one of them) finds out the kings plan for the witches after using them (which includes utter destruction, or utter control)
5 Aedion's execution, Aelin to the rescue & Aelin vs dorian
6 Witches try to get out of the castle, find out some kind of force is keeping them in (wether its people or magical barriers)
7 somehow they get out (probably only manon and asterin)
8 most are together (other than the dead, and people will die. or the people who are again separated (possibly chaol))
9 Some bad shit happens
Things that I didn't know where to put but wanted to add:
-try to destroyed the clocktower but fail
-attempt to kill the king
- the king does more bad shit
-more about gavin (possibly gavin talking to dorian)
- Chaol and Aelin start redeveloping feels (nothing more than feels happen in the book)
- Somewhere along the way (possibly before execution) aelin finds people with favours)
- manon on team good and will possibly make alliance with crochans (last part prob in book 5)
In the end:
Shit goes down
more AGVSKSUBDKWBACBURQLEBCAL
rowan comes to rifthold (most likely in 5th book)
angst
and even more AJSKWBCQ;BWLQIBLLVLWHOLYH JAEBVCABCEH,FUCKING KWGKVUYVKRQUKVQVK SHITGGJVFAEKVKEFUVBLJQEBL
and we all die now (sing in ring around the rosy tune)
Wait... I thought Manon and her Thirteen went to Morath at the end of HoF... I'm gonna have to go reread that part again later.
Yeah, I thought so too... But, other than that, I think most of the things Priya said is gonna happen in book 4.

Ok, now that that's out of my system, pretty much the only thing that hasn't been said that I think will happen is that Ansel (the Assassin and the Desert) will make an appearance because she and Celaena still have unresolved issues. Also Celaena will kill Arobynn.
I NEED her to kill Arobynn.

She will meet the crochan witches and accidentally lead her thirteen right to them
Epic battle
The thirteen lose
Manon is captured
Shit happens
Manon has an alliance with the crochans
Battle between the iron teeth and crochans
Mankind grandma gets killed and manon is now the leader of the black beak clan (she is also on team good now

Including the man in chapter 67 btw are we supposed to know who that guy is? Or is he a new character?

I am excited for her to return!

And I´m really hoping that Rowan could appear in this book, Aelyn will need him, (so do I) (Me more than Aelyn probably)


"Dull metal flecked with dings and scratches, it's pommel nothing more than a bit of cracked, rounded horn. Such a simple, plain sword for one of the greatest warriors of Erilea."
It can't be aedion. Because it's not the same sword.
I'm guessing this guy is royalty from eyllwe, fenharrow, melisande, or wendlyn.
My guess is eyllwe though (cuz it kinda sounds like eagle



Though knowing Sarah J Maas they probably won't even meet up until Book 5


I feel like she will eventually
The main things I want out of book 4 are
1. Dorian freed
2. Aeidon and Aelin reuniting
3. Chaol meeting Rowan
4. AROBYNN DIES
5. We find out what really happened to Sam
I realize this is highly idealistic though




I also REALISED in crown of midnight they foreshadowed the manon story line
http://books.google.ca/books?id=7bTeI...
What if heir of fire had this kind of foreshadowing too??
Once upon a time I will check.
Eventually in the next book I think Dorian and manon and friends will meet and manon will know about the rings&collars
Book 4 of Throne of Glass Has a Release Date..September 10th 2015!!!!!!!!
I seriously want to know more about Manon because at the end Sarah made her seem more human to me.

I can't ever deactivate my fangirlism, but I'm good at hiding it.

Utterly and Completely Random Theories
1) Lysandra's real name/identity is Nesryn Faliq
2) Abraxos(and all the other wyverns) is actually a human-turned-into-a-wyvern-by-the-king
3) Abraxos will turn into a super hot human man at some point
4) And then Manon and Abraxos are gonna fall in love (view spoiler)
More Utterly and Completely Random Theories coming soon.
I know I could be wrong and way off, but at least I've got something to do while waiting for the next book to come out. I mean, seriously--September 10th 2015. The release date keeps getting later and later.
Throne of Glass - August 12th 2012
Crown of Midnight - August 28th 2013
Heir of Fire - September 2nd 2014
The Mysterious and Untitled Sure-To-Be-Epic Book #4 - September 15th 2015

Also, I don't know why but Aedion and Manon could make a good pair XD

This is kinda late to comment on it but I just read the post so I have to tell my idea:
I think the guy in chapt. 67 who is throwing his sword in the river in HoF is Chaol throwing away his sword because in chapter 67 it says it has an eagle pommel and in ToG when Chaol offers Celaena his sword to duel Cain with it says it has an eagle pommel. Also when Chaol flees the palace, he stops in the tomb under Celaena's rooms and takes the sword of the old king in HoF. When the anonymous guy drops his sword in the river it says that he has a "new sword at his side--an ancient king's blade..." Also its kinda of Maas' way of showing Chaol renounce his kingdom and loyalty to the king because that sword was his when he was captain of the guard.
I thought the anonymous guy was Aedion too until I re-read the series for the 15th billion time and I remembered what Chaol's sword looked like.


I don't think they were bonded. It would be more likely for chaol to be bonded with Dorian than chaol and celaena, especially considering she's already bonded with Rowan.
I really want Dorian and chaol to be bonded because chaol is honestly so useless right now, and weak. Chaol needs a power up and soon. Also Dorian and chaol will be such an amazing team <3




As for the shipping thing, I too believe Celeana is meant to be alone. I have a feeling Maas will have Chaol and Celeana reunite and end up together, but I also think she'll end up alone. Having Rowan by her side. I don't think she and Rowan will end up together, nor will she end up with her cousin.
September 15 is too far, I just really wish Celeana will get there in time and the Dorian will be free.



About the guy in Chapter 67 I'm positive it's Chaol finally picking the rebels side.
I really really want Rowan to like follow her , I mean it's hardly an accuse that magic is gone and he can't shift. I mean surly if he's been Mauve's solider for that long then he's probably been through worse than spending a couple of months in his animal form. But if he's not going then maybe he can go make allies with Celeana's cousins the Ashwrivers? Can't spell that. She needs as many allies as she can get.
