I’m reading Ruhn and Lidia’s reconciliation now and I just… don’t like it. I thought Ruhn would have some major character development understanding that Lidia’s role was necessary and that someone will get their hands dirty in a war (not only Lidia, but Hunt is also a good example). I thought he would grow to understand that the woman he fell in love is both The Hind and Daybright and one had to exist to feed the other. But the author just decided to include a random fae in a scene to show that Lidia saved some men warning about The Hammer coming their way, thus saving their lives + lots of sexual tension. Like she’s trying to shape Lidia into something acceptable for Ruhn instead of making him grow the fuck up. Bryce always understood that the shadow of death had to exist and it didn’t change the male behind it. Bryce always saw that Hunt was worthy beyond what he had to do to survive. And people still think that Bryce is the immature one…
