Queen of Shadows (Throne of Glass)

Product Information

Many of the members of the Shogunate in the Shadows do not get along, and are merely united by their desire to defeat the Shadowkhan. The Punishment Is the Crime: How Hiruzen chooses to punish Hishu for his role in Jade's escape attempt and subsequent near death. Seeing how riddled with guilt he is, Hiruzen decides that that alone is fitting torment. Nesryn joins them and shares news about Morath. The king is building an army there with dark soldiers, witches, and wyverns. Lorcan appears out of the shadows and puts a knife to Aelin’s throat. He wants to know where the third Wyrdkey is. He says Brannon Galathynius’s ring isn’t just sentimental to Maeve. It can grant immunity from the power of the Valg. Lorcan wants to exchange their Wyrdkey for the ring. La Résistance: The Shogunate in the Shadows, the elite group put together by Lord Rokutaro to combat the Shadowkhan.

Aelin doesn’t want Lysandra to help and tells her to take Evangeline out of the city before shit goes down. The plan is to set the towers on fire using hellfire, and Chaol and Aelin will take down Dorian and the King. Manon has left messages for Aelin all over the city so that she’ll hopefully realise that Dorian is still alive. Chaol’s men have been killed and their bodies are hanging from the fence outside the castle. Missing Mom: It is mentioned that the 98th Queen (the one whose life Jade is trapped in) lost her mother at a young age. And it should be noted that she died well before what is implied to be normal for a Queen, possibly implying foul play (for his part, Hiruzen suspects Shendu's involvement, but can't prove it, though fans of the show should note that Tarakudo was part of her guard on the trip, which implies he may have had a hand in it). Subverted. Kyouaku tosses anyone who dies in his naval battles overboard, whether they were his enemies or his crew. The Assassin’s Blade • Throne of Glass • Crown of Midnight • Heir of Fire • Queen of Shadows • Empire of Storms • Tower of Dawn • Kingdom of Ash Hero Antagonist: Rokutaro seems to be forming a secret alliance of elite warriors against the Shadowkhan, which will likely conflict with Jade's plans in the future.The fact that Yasashi's armor is made from Shadowkhan bones makes it capable of deflecting Samurai Khan shadow blades. Meanwhile, Dorian has been living in darkness. Most of his memories are gone, and he doesn’t even know his own name. He knows something is living inside him, trying to overtake his mind. He knows he can’t fight it much longer.

Nonki has an airy, almost hippie-like personality... which hides the fact that he's come to believe that permanent peace is impossible to achieve in life, and can only be found in death. Never Found the Body: Happens with Kyouaku during the Second Battle of Awaji, as his ship is capsized by the storm before Kuro can finish him off. Because of this, Kuro tells Ikazuki that they can't assume he died without proof. Bad Boss: Shendu, to absolutely no one's surprise, incinerating a slave after she performed for him, with the implication that he does it regularly. And he "rewards" his loyal minion the Grand Eunuch by surrounding him with beautiful women he can't physically enjoy. Aelin and Rowan capture a Valg demon. Aelin makes a deal with the person whose body the Valg is possessing. There’s a very awkward reunion that I really don’t care about. Chaol gives Aelin a recap of what’s been going on while she was away. The rebels have been saving people who can use magic, all of which have the demon jewellery. Aelin blames Chaol for Dorian’s current state. She also tells him that Celaena no longer exists. BOOM!
