There’s a secret part of me that wonders if the High Five Heroes turned Rat Grinders isn’t something nefarious at all, but actually pointing a very truly unfair thing that happened— when Gorgug and Kristen died in freshman year, Aguefort saved them and resurrected them with intense magic (sacrificing himself and another teacher). The moment I heard about Lucy dying, I immediately thought, “did aguefort or anyone try to offer them the same resource? If not, why?”
For a group of happy-go-lucky kids to develop “edgier” personalities (can’t think of a better word for it), I wonder if something really terrible happened to Lucy during one of their times in the woods.
Maybe they stay in the woods not because they think it’s easier, maybe they stay because something happened to their friend the one time they tried to go beyond.
And when they turned to their administration, maybe even the rogue teacher particularly or administration, instead of black and white on rules on paper, they gave them a “gray” option full of special circumstance.
I liked how everyone has been making the connection that the Rat Grinders and Bad Kids propose perfect rivals for each of them. It means that they have the option as Ayda said about two greatest wizards— they’ll either kill each other or save the world.
I’m excited to find out which BLeeM and the Intrepid Heroes choose
