βNesta is different from most peopleβ¦She comes across as rigid and vicious, but I think itβs a wall. A shieldβlike the ones Rhys has in his mind.β
βFeeling. I think Nesta feels everythingβsees too much; sees and feels it all. And she burns with it. Keeping that wall up helps from being overwhelmed, from caring too greatly.β
βShe barely seems to care about anyone other than Elain.β
I met his stare, scanning that handsome, tan face. βShe will never be like Mor,β I said. βShe will never love freely and gift it to everyone who crosses her path. But the few she does care forβ¦I think Nesta would shred the world apart for them. Shred herself apart for them.β
One of my absolute favorite descriptions of Nesta from ACOMAF and my warmest gratitude to Keiko for delivering this stunning illustration. π₯°β€οΈ
