I haven’t been live posting thoughts on Path of Night’s War of Ages but I’ve been loving it. I find it’s not a podcast I can consume while doing most other things. I constantly have to rewind it, I feel like every other line is a subtle tell of what’s to come in some way. It just feels so packed with lore!
Just started on pisode 5, and so curious about everyone
Catrinel feels like… I get the feeling she is so measured with her words and gestures because she is truly barely controlling all the rage inside of herself?
Sadhbh… ooh I am loving what we’re learning about her and her relationship with Roland. She feels like her emotions and anger are wafting out of her and only keeps a lid on it because of Roland.
Speaking of Roland, who I thought was a cinnamon roll/golden retriever for a moment… unsure if that’s the case. I definitely get the feeling he ‘came of age’ in Paris among Toreador and that has… maybe given a pretense that he is courtly etiquette but I also get the feeling he sticks his foot in his mouth often. Him and Sadhbh very interesting dynamic.
Zorion - oh baby boy wants to just play his guitar and sword fight with Roland but there’s something about that shadow hand… something about the weight of his clan and his duty that keeps him from doing that. I get the feeling that he is someone who understands how heavy the crown is and secretly wishes he could take it off
And then we have Alexios! Who… is just a fun little guy but also can pick locks super well, has mysterious walks in the underworld (?), and a shadow baby could not follow him even though the shadow baby can basically follow anything. What is behind this - i’m just a fun guy - mask??
Loving it all!
