Now we are in the Grankull and, believe me, you wouldn’t want to live there. You will discover that soon, aren’t you? Because you will read it anyway (I encourage you to do so… actually, what are you waiting for?). And I wish you that you enjoy it as much or more than me.
I would prefer to live in the Desert. Of course, if I have Ra-ja’s skills, or Kai’s. I can even feel satisfied with just Zephyr’s. But if I don’t have any, as it unfortunately really is, I could live just fine in the Graveyard if no one tries to kill me… and I’m sure someone will try to kill me, or worse (yes, there are things worse than death). Because that’s life in the Forging, you’re welcome.
If you’re confused at the start, this makes two of us. Don’t worry, you will understand soon, you just have to walk barefoot in the sand a bit more to get accustomed and fully transported there. It’s a delight, I tell you, to arrive at one place and understand nothing of what happens around you. Very frustrating, but when you give it time and just a bit of patience, you will see and feel the magic working.
To this moment, this book has one of the most amazing character development I have seen in my life, no kidding. And a lot of plot twists. From all, I only anticipated one, and it happened because it was the more evident; I fell for the rest of them. Or at least the vast majority. Ah! One catchphrase accompanied me during this journey: “Everything that can go wrong, goes worse”, and it’s true! You will see it! And you will love it 😭😭
I thought I would love one character (Zephyr had the most incredible introduction, I fell for him thanks to that) only to end up loving another (Kai has my heart forever and ever [we will see about that in the second book ¬¬]). I stand for Ra-ja, I tell you from now on: she can, don’t make the mistake of doubting her, she can shut your mouth too. I still get angry at Nico and Suri, especially Suri. And Neema makes me nervous, the kind of “how are you still alive?!”. If I have the opportunity, I would love to meet Ra-ja’s and Kai’s tahs (sadly -or not too much- not the living ones), and that has to say a lot about them, it said a lot to me. But not just yet, I have no rush. I already know that all hunters are hunted.
