Such a fitting end to this story.  The world was saved, but not without surmountable loss.

I wish these characters did not have to suffer so much to get the endings they deserved, but it made this story that much more beautiful.

We got magic, friendships, family, and love - but not without betrayal, death, torture, and suffering.

Kell and Lila sail off into the sunset, while Rhy and Alucard spend their time loving each other at the palace.  None of them thought they would end up where they did, but they all absolutely deserved it.

V.E. Schwab has a gift for making you fall in love with the characters and with the world in her stories.  I’m sad for this ending, but I know we will return to this world soon with her new series.
