Two pages today. Fare thee well, little dikdik, there was no way he was going to let you walk out of here.

She made it further into the chapter than I thought she would.

Michael Stakely

Ruck definitely wasn't going to let her go after she revealed that she wasn't in on the dealings between him and Sonorie. Can't have her betraying somebody he loves after all.

Rifter

I'll say it again. Don't make deals with eldritch abominations!

Ava

Oh nooooo.... I should have seen it coming but... Goodness. Makes sense. Bloody, messy /"love" filled sense/

Ladile

Well, didn't the Queen herself say that we do monstrous things for love? It all makes perfect sense. Also puts a new perspective on her grieving her sister's murder.

Ruck is really laying it on thick here with the predator/prey dynamic. How much is it him intentionally reminding Sonorie of her place, and how much of it is him being, well, a predator?

Man, the queens been juggling a lot of fires, it seems inevitable that she’d eventually drop one and set the whole tinderbox alight. Too bad when you do that as a monarch it gets a bunch of people killed. Stinks of fatal hubris to think she’d be able to use Ruck like he were any of her other pawns/tools.

Bell's actions are still his own. I imagine that Sonorie was just hoping to discredit him and did not think that his madness and bloodlust would escalate to the extent that it did. Otherwise.... she may thought that the potential death toll would've been worth it, if it meant securing her power. That said-- holy shit. This is... bad. Really bad.

It's funny, I'm not even surprised somehow? I don't know what exactly my brain read to make this an expected twist though, haha. Maybe the overwrought comical evilness of Bell himself - like ohhh, yeah, makes sense why she let that go on for so long because the man was NOT subtle...

Hoo boy, the queen haters over on /co are gonna be vocal today.

What a line "walked to his grave with gods papered over his eyes" is. Evocative in and of itself but a nice eloquent resonance with the tendency of senets to call the modern religions "paper gods." I mean duh, but, still hella cool.

jaaama

Chea's little legs... Ruck why couldn't you have set aside for this

Stephanie Aldrich

Squeaking! It cannot be loved! Ruck is so awful, I love these pages.

Flyfly

Ah, Rusk, full of LOVE as always. I do wonder what was the plan Sonorie envisioned like. With all going to hell and beyond it's kind of hard to envision a working version (which is perhaps why I actually didn't see this revelation coming). As is it starts to feel like Maha is a certified face-eating-leopards party voter.

HandsomePenguin

That poor handmaiden has been wearing a (figurative) red shirt this entire time. But I am still sad to see her go. And just shows how primal Ruck is. I do wonder, if she would have kept quiet would he have let her be?

Interesting to see Ruck and Sonorie possibly aligned on meddling with people to pacify them
