i wrote this before i read the last 200 or so pages:
hot take: i liked hekat. scandalously, i would even go so far as to say i liked her. i know. all the other reviews here are astonished.

tbh i don’t think it was easy to like her, and that is what makes her an entirely interesting character. you witness the horrors she endures — particularly within her tenure as a slave — and you begin to understand why she quickly becomes unlikable. she is a product of mijak and its society.
my opinions of hekat after the last 200 pages:
oh my god what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck
