Description
Taking place a couple of days after Bloodwitch, this is my book-style prediction of what will happen in book 4 of the Witchlands series by Susan Dennard (world and characters all belong to her, along with my heart and eternal devotion.) Aeduan is free. No Monastery or life debts to keep him tied down. But he still has one thing left to complete- not a job, but an obligation. He's tracking something down- not an item, but a person. And if he dooms the Raiders in the meantime, so be it. He made his choice. Iseult is frustrated. Stuck within the palace of Emperor Henrik, her thread sister betrothed to him, she must navigate the complicated social hierarchy of the court while facing racism because of her No'amatsi heritage. There's only one person who can help her now- but he's on the other side of the Witchlands, with no way of finding her. Vivia is exhausted. Attempting to lead a small group of refugees beneath the catacombs beneath Nubreva, the danger is at every turn and nothing can change the fact that she is hopelessly lost. Her only points of clarity are the Foxfire she hopes the origin well is using to led her to the surface- and Vaness, the powerful young Ironwitch who rules the Empire of Marstok and is her only hope for saving the Witchlands from an all-out war. Safi is determined. She will not marry the wrinkly old toad that is the Emperor of Cartorra. She has her thread sister back, her Hell Bards by her side, and is ready to leave this rutting country altogether- and hopefully, find out what really happened to the Prince of Nubreva. She only has to wait until the wedding. Then, she can make her great escape. She just has to make sure they all survive that long.
