Crossover
I believe that there is a reason CC3 needs to come next, rather than another ACOTAR book, and that might be because it will have big implications for ACOTAR and Elain’s story in particular.

Disclaimer: the following post discusses a theory that, like all the rest, is simply my thoughts based on the text, and makes no claims of accuracy. TOG, CC (HOEAB and HOSAB) spoilers and content below so beware. Thanks to everyone who helped me think this through: @silverlinedeyes,@psychee92,@merymoonbeam,@wingedblooms,@icedflames and more.
Thanks to a massive lack of motivation to actually write up any theory whatsoever, this post has been in draft form since the spoilers were released; it essentially combines a crack theory about the origin of the Illyrians that I had last year with new (and very pertinent) information from CC HOSAB. Because of the crack theory, it’ll require a little back story to explain my thoughts, but to summarise: I have been wondering whether chapter 78 of HOSAB hints at some sort of disaster having hit Velaris by the time Bryce had arrived… and who is the chiefest and greatest of calamities in Prythian’s world?

I was thinking about this lovely post you wrote @silverlinedeyes and remembered this language that might be another clue for Elain’s role (HOSAB spoilers below):
