#nehemia

First of all… him sending her away 😭

Second of all… I know it’s not back to the way it was but I’m glad there was some healing between Celeana and chaol 😭

I still love them your honor.

And Nehemia 😭 and Celeana trying to speak to her

Ans fuck archer, I knew I didn’t like him

Also, even though I’ve been avoiding spoilers for the series on TikTok and Instagram…. I still saw just a smidgen enough to manage to put together the whole Aelin thing as I was reading and I kinda wish I didn’t cuz that’s the kind of puzzle I would’ve liked to figure out on my own. But it is what is.

Just my personal take!

I’ve chosen to fancast actual actors—not models or influencers—for each female character in the Throne of Glass series. For every role, I’ve listed two options:

Book-Accurate – An actress who closely matches the character’s physical description or the overall vibe Sarah J. Maas describes.

Personal Vision – The actress I personally envisioned while reading, even if she doesn’t perfectly match the book’s description.

This is Part 2 of my fancast series. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out Part 1: Men Fancast!

NOTE: For some characters, the book doesn’t provide a very detailed physical description—so instead of focusing on appearance, I based my choices on the overall feeling or energy I got from the character while reading. I picked actresses who gave me similar vibes through their past roles or screen presence, even if they don’t perfectly match what's described in the text.

So part of this ToG series re-read is being able to pick up on things that I never noticed before / didn’t realise the ironicness of a situation or the foreshadowing because I didn’t know the outcome before. When i tell you there is too much foreshadowing to mention everything I mean there is. so. much. foreshadowing. and. hints. EVERYWHERE. and they aren’t even spoiler foreshadowing or hints, they are just small things like subtly hinting at Celaena’s heritage both book 1 & 2 or the foreshadowing of Kaltain’s death a book beforehand, so on, so forth.

One that I’ve just read and hadn’t put together even after the few re-reads i’ve done, is after Nehemia has died and Celaena has been placed in the dungeon. Chaol and Dorian are having a moment on the servants steps when Chaol is telling Dorian about the events leading up to Nehemia’s death, specifically when Chaol doesn’t understand how Celaena could run faster than a horse and before Celaena goes to the warehouse she describes her ‘killing calm’ and that even Arobynn didn’t realise how calm she could get when she went over the edge.

My theory is that when she slips into the ultra ‘killing calm’ (not just her regular killing calm), she somehow unlocks part of her Fae heritage and while the dampen on magic means she can’t fully shift, somehow a little bit of it seeps out and makes her vision better, her breath more stable, legs faster and stronger - basically everything she would get from the shift but on a smaller but still noticeable scale that allows her to run faster than a horse.

They say that he was selfish and only thought about keeping his position as captain of the guard.

These are some valid takes, however if Nehemia felt that she was in danger, why didn't SHE tell Celaena/Aelin about it? Elena Galathynius also knew abt Nehemia and didn't do anything to prevent it from happening? Then why is Chaol the only one held accuntable for it?

Hi everyone! I am so happy to present this wonderful art of Nehemia Ytger that was done by @odj_illustration and commissioned by me!

Nehemia is one of my favourite characters and her wisdom, passion, heart, and courage never cease to amaze me. I’m still not over her death but commissioning this art of her is made it a bit easier to process.

Olivia was a pleasure to work with one this art and I hope you all enjoy it!
