A Court of Silver Flame, Part 4: Nesta Takes a Hike
Tuesday Jan 16, 2024
Tuesday Jan 16, 2024
Skip ahead to 22:30 for when Mel and Jill stop jibber jabbering about random things and get into the book.
The Bog of Oorid is gross as hell, and it’s all around terrible. A fight ensues, but Nesta finds the mask. Nesta continues her training, and more and more priestesses join. Nesta unintentionally imbues some weapons with a little bit of magic (whoops!), and Gwyn teaches them to meditate. For some reason Rhys becomes a big secret keeper and doesn’t want to tell Nesta about the weapons (or the fact that the baby has wings). Cassian takes Nesta for a hike through the mountains, and it truly changes everything. Both Mel and Jill get a little emotional about how much this book means to them.
