so, someone on the fan wiki said it could be Mags. Okay. Hold on.
I'm only ever so suspicious of thinking it could be Bas/Vasili because of the song and dance in the first book; would it really be the most obvious option? And realized, at this point, we all trust Mags with our life---and so does Trystan, that we forget the fact that she's also a Thorne afterall.
She'd know how to kill someone, how to "lie effectively", and is a friend to all that's been murdered iirc.
I'm not saying I'm gonna bet on her just yet, just that we all failed to consider all Thornes, even if only briefly and initially, so this is actually a hats off to the writing lol
a joke is just another way of telling the truth
i know you're suspicious but you got no proof
a joke is just another way of telling the truth 💥💥💥💥💥❗❗❗❗
calling my lover "mine" but not in the way that my toothbrush or notebook are mine, mine in the way my neighborhood is mine, and also everybody else's, "mine" like mine to tend to, mine to care for, mine to love. "mine" not like possession but devotion.
