Lines that emotionally scarred me in KOA

“You do not yield”

“Take it off, take it off, take it off.”

“Live, Manon. Live”

“The Lion will roar no longer, his life the asking price for defending his cub.”

Hands and feet down, one of the best KOA scenes

Aelin looked at Chaol and Dorian and sobbed. Opened her arms to them, and wept as they held each other. “I love you both,” she whispered. “And no matter what may happen, no matter how far we may be, that will never change.” “We will see you again,” Chaol said, but even his voice was thick with tears. “Together,” Dorian breathed, shaking. “We’ll rebuild this world together".

Lorcan slid his other arm around Elide, bringing his mouth close to her ear he said “you have to let me go.”

“No.”

“You have to, Elide. I’m too heavy and without my weight, you might make it to the keep in time.”

“No.” The salt of her tears filled his nose.

Lorcan brushed his mouth over her damp cheek… “I love you,” he whispered in Elide’s ear. “I have loved you from the moment you picked up that axe to slay the Ilken.” Her tears flowed past him in the wind. “And I will be with you…” His voice broke, but he made himself say the words, the truth in his heart. “I will be with you always.”

So Lorcan kissed Elide’s cheek again, allowed himself to breath in her scent one last time. “I love you,” he repeated and began to withdraw his arms from around her waist.

“No.”

Chaol Westfall: I don’t make bargains with bastards. I’m certainly not going to start with you

Dear Sarah,

Thank you. This book wasn’t easy to read. Not all was happy, or safe or warm. But every word meant something to me. I have loved, and will love, these characters with my whole heart. Have laughed with them, cried with them, hated and loved and lived with them, and they have taught me so many things about myself, and about the person that I could be. They changed who I am. Before I sit back, quiet and shy, I remember Aelin, and know that she would not want me to hide myself. Before I am cold, and harsh, I remember Rowan, and know that he felt that as well, and would not have me feel it. Before I say something in anger, I remember Aedion, and I learn from his mistakes. Before I settle for something, I remember Lysandra and her wildness, and know that she would see wildness in me too. When I am brutal, when I am merciless, Manon breathes to me of love. Love that changed her, remade her. When I lose someone, Dorian reminds me that they’re never truly gone. When I am proud, and unbending, Chaol tells me to allow people to help, to ease the burdens. And so many more lessons from so many others. These books have meant so much to me. And this final chapter made me grieve more than I could have imagined, made me rage and cry against it, but it also made me smile, grin, laugh and hope and live. It was so much more than I ever could have dreamed. So thank you so much. For thinking up Aelin, Rowan, Aedion, Lysandra, Manon, Dorian, Chaol, Yrene, Elide, Lorcan, Fenrys, Gavriel, Evangeline, Fleetfoot, and everyone else. In my heart, the Kingsflame will always bloom for Aelin and her Court To Rattle The Stars.

“But life, Chaol realized—life was just beginning.”—Kingdom of Ash

Things that shocked me in KoA:

Dorian tricking Maeve

Lord Lorcan Lochan (it will never not be funny)

The King being named Dorian

Evangeline melting Darrow’s heart

All the AedionxLysandra drama. That was intense

Aelin being more okay than she was at the end of CoM

ABRAXOS ALMOST DIED

THE THIRTEEN DIED (I wasn’t surprised. I knew someone would do the Yielding, but like, all 13? Sarah, you’re killing me)

THE APPEARANCE OF RHYS AND FEYRE AS AELIN FELL THROUGH THE REALMS.

FEYRE IS PREGNANT.

AELIN WAS A STAR ON STARFALL

You may ask if I will ever be okay. The answer is no.

Dorian @ The Thirteen : ok listen up bitches

Manon : it’s witches, not bitches

Dorian :

Imagine: Georgina Havilliard returning from hiding with a mile-long list of pretty, innocent young noblewomen for Dorian to choose as Queen only to find him with Manon-Fucking-Blackbeak, iron-toothed Witch Queen and Wyvern rider.
