I was annoyed at how long it took them to think “hmmm, how about instead of arguing about who deserves to die, they team up and neither dies?” I get that it was for maximum ANGST lol but yeah.
Mini rant over.
No, wait. I would’ve loved for Manon to be there and see her reaction. Ultimately she’d be rational like Chaol and eventually Rowan. But omg to see her get in Fenrys’s face at this moment?
@rufousnmacska I honestly was disappointed Manon wasn’t present for that conversation because, of course she wouldn’t *want* Dorian to sacrifice himself, but she’s also super practical. Very curious as to how that would’ve played out.
…………also I need to know what Chaol and Dorian were murmuring that Aelin couldn’t hear , just before they tried to forge the lock. I was like, no SJM, I wanna hear this
I agree about Manon being very practical. But I think her initial reaction in that moment would’ve been emotional and protective. There were signs of that when she found him talking to Kaltain and realized what he was planning.
But yeah, I can also see her being a voice of reason trying to calm everyone the fuck down.
Oh god. I want to know what they said to each other too.
@propshophannah has a head canon that one thing Dorian told Chaol was to find Manon and tell her his answer was yes.
