4.75/5 stars - Like im not even sure what to say at this point. This series is a masterclass in storytelling, war and destruction and making me loose my goddamn mind. More thoughts to come later :,)

This book is the ultimate culmination of what the series is trying to tell us; which is that war is brutal and utterly without mercy. It wrecked me,
it feels like a tragedy that you can see coming but can do nothing to stop. I knew Rin was too far gone to be able to come back and I love that she finally saw why former rulers conceded, it felt like the inevitable end not only for her character but for the nation as a whole.
