Don’t get me wrong, it’s a huge thing that Beau was willing to give up everything for Nott... but it’s also huge that Marisha was willing to give up her character for Sam.

I think a lot of people are coming at the whole “Nott offering to start a war” thing from the wrong angle. The questions she was asking to Isharnai weren’t just about what would happen to her, they were about what would happen to her friends. Nott knew her friends would be willing to sacrifice so much for her and was willing to start a war to prevent that. It’s obviously still morally questionable, debatably even evil, but it’s not as selfish or intentionally harmful to the rest of the group as some people have made it out to be. Nott does care about herself and her family (found and biological), to the point that she’d burn down the rest of the world to prevent their misery. At least that’s what I got from that interaction, but maybe I’m a Nott apologist lol

not to continue being beaujester on main but jester did That immediately after being faced with the possibility of beau leaving, because that was simply unacceptable to her
