They were majestic, brilliant, phenomenal!!! I think when I have settled down I will do a more in depth review of all of them like I did for ACOTAR but I just loved these books so very much!!

“books can’t hurt you”
books:
CHAPTER 42
She said after a tense moment, “I hate him. No one knows it, but I do. He disgusts me.”
CHAPTER 67
“You fear him.” Something primal stirred in Ruhn.
“Yes.”
CHAPTER 75
She was so beautiful. And utterly soulless.
“There is so much to tell you, Ruhn,” she said softly, and his name on her tongue …
But Ruhn looked away from her. He could have sworn the Hind flinched.
He didn’t care.
Ruhn ignored the begging voice. The way it broke as she said, Ruhn.
He fortified the walls of his mind. Brick by brick.
Ruhn. Lidia banged on the walls of his mind.
So he encased it with iron. With black steel.
She banged against the black steel and stone, over and over. Her voice broke again, Ruhn!
Ruhn locked her out.
BONUS
CHAPTER 76
“I love you. I wish I’d said it more. But I love you, Quinlan, and …” His throat closed up, his eyes stinging. His lips brushed her brow. “Our love is stronger than time, greater than any distance. Our love spans across stars and worlds. I will find you again. I promise.”

MANON BLACKBEAK IS SUPERIOR TO ALL
something that I hate in TOG fandom is that whenever I say that Manon is my favourite character they're like "but Aelin"
I DON'T CARE ABOUT AELIN

The reasons why we're getting Manorian book
There has been a lot of speculation whether SJM is going to favor us with book/novella about Manon Blackbeak and Dorian Havilliard, recently I saw some fans doubting it, so here's a list of logical reasons why it's happening.
1. It's SJM
This woman writes two 500+ pages books per year, for her it would be a piece of cake.
2. There have already been books focused on side characters
a) Chaol and Yrene - Chaol was one of the most unpopular characters before Tower of Dawn (which made me love him hehe) and she still wrote a 600+ pages long book about him, just imagine what she'd do with the most popular character (Manon) and one of the most popular ones (Dorian).
b) Nesta and Cassian - this is ship is the closest to Manorian equivalent in ACOTAR series, aka starting from a physical relationship that develops into a sentimental one. Also 6th ACOTAR book will be focused on a new characters (most probably Elain)
3. Favoritism
SJM has talked multiple times about her love for these two. When asked about her favorite TOG character, she said Aelin, but Manon was a close second place and she said that she absolutely loves writing her.
In another interview, when asked who she would go on a book tour with and a few similar questions, she answered Dorian.
Now, I haven't seen all of her interviews ever and I'm not sure how much she loves Nessian and Cahorene (seems to love Nessian a hella lot tho), but it's definite that Manorian are some of her favorite characters and it's just logical that she would write about them.
4. Unfinished story/Unresolved feelings
Ships at the end of TOG:
Rowaelin - married
Elorcan - engaged
Lysaedion - engaged
Chaorene - married with a baby on the way
Nestaq - engaged
Manorian - hug and "we'll see"
All the ships basically got engaged in the last chapter (it's not like I didn't like it hehe) and their stories, romantic-wise, were pretty much finished and they have no unresolved tension between them. Manorian on the other hand, have enough of it for all the ships lol.
KOA spoilers ahead!
Keep in mind, Manorian relationship was mostly a sexual one, and they don't quite yet have a way of communicating their feelings properly. So there is a lot of unaddressed between them, even though they obviously care a lot about each other.
The unresolved things between Manon and Dorian:
"“And if I asked you to stay?” / “I’d need a very convincing reason, I suppose.” / “Because I don’t want you to go.” - they just fucked and Dorian left for Morath later, which impacted Manon a lot but they haven't discussed it
"I even care about you." - Manon got up and left
"There is only one witch who will be my queen." - Manon doesn't know about this
Manon saved Dorian from Valg demon even when Aelin couldn't. It was the worst thing to happen to Dorian and he still bears scars from it, yet he didn't have an appropriate situation to thank Manon for it
Dorian knows that Erawan lusted after Manon, which got him pissed of course, and he didn't have a chance nor time to ask Manon about it. It might be nothing, but if I were Dorain and my girlfriend who doesn't show feelings was locked up with a crazy guy who has a thing for her, and have seen the way he treats women, I'd be concerned. Erawan was a Valg king, a tough opponent even for Manon. If he had done something to her, and he had plenty of means and opportunities and wish to do so, Manon would never openly tell anyone (maybe Asterin) about it, because it would imply opening up and being weak, which is Manon's worst fear. Again, SJM, as the Queen of Foreshadowing, wouldn't just randomly throw in the main villain having a thing for an important character, everything in her books always has a meaning and purpose.
"Would you miss me if I didn't [come back]?" - Manon didn't reply
This is how SJM described Manorian marriage: "She would be his wife, his queen. She was already his equal, his match, mirror in so many ways. And with their union, the world would know it." - and you're telling me it's not deserving of its own book? Not just that, Manon asked Dorian for marriage and they, again, just had sex, with Dorian loving the idea but deep down knowing that Manon would feel caged in a marriage. And that attitude won't just change out of the blue. It takes time and development which is something SJM writes amazingly.
With the Thirteen gone, beside Abraxos Dorian is the only creature Manon cares about.
Dorian's mortality (although as you'll see in point #6 I'm sure he's not human)
The dreaded "You could just marry each other." / "We'll see." (Thanks Yrene :)
5. Foreshadowing
Listen here, SJM IS THE QUEEN OF FORESHADOWING. She thought of a detail (Dorian's dad's name) in the first book that would matter in the last book. Of course, there are many many many more examples of that, but if we got "We'll see." then we'll fucking see it happen.
6. Unresolved things about Manon and Dorian as individual characters.
Manon and Dorian and both pretty broken at the end of KOA.
Manon lost the Thirteen, the only people she cared about. That is a huge trauma that needs to be addressed, especially with someone so reluctant to show feelings and heal like Manon.
Dorian can't be human?? He has fae abilities due to his relation to Gavin and Elena even though he's not even called a demi-fae. He possesses powers no one else does, phantom hands for example, which he didn't steal like shape-shifting. And Maeve pointed out that due to his father being possessed by Valg when Dorian was sired, it's possible he got some of the Valg abilities. (Also she said that he's stronger than Aelin) The main villain, especially written by Queen of Foreshadowing, wouldn't just let drop it there and that's it. Also not to mention Dorian's own struggle with depression and self-worth.
They have both just become rulers of their kingdoms, completely new to it. Dorian has spent a big part of KOA imagining what kind of a king he wants to be (one that will have a witch queen hehe) and it was a major point of his character. And addition to that affecting them as characters, the future of Adarlan and Witch Kingdom could make a good plotline.
7. Other TOG characters
Although pretty much all the readers would die to see Chaorene baby, Lorcan in Perranth, Aelin and Rowan ruling Terrasen, Lysandra and Adeion officially adopting Evangeline, Nesryn and Sartaq becoming Khagan and Empress of Antica, all of these don't make enough of a plot on its own. They are great side-plots.
We know all of these characters love each other and are happy together, there isn't that much to be added to their personal stories other than kids. (same way Feyre and Rhys got a baby in Nessian book) Manorian however, they haven't even kissed without it leading to sex, they hugged at the end of KOA and it was the pique of their relationship. Their relationship is merely at the beginning, whereas others have pretty much reached their ultimatum (ofc SJM can decide to add some drama with betrayal, kidnapping, pregnancy etc. but for now everyone is good and settled beside Manorian)
Not to mention the way other relationships would affect them. Chaol, Dorian's brother, and Yrene, Manon's wannabe bestie and Manorian shipper, would bring their baby to meet his/her uncle Dorian and aunt Manon, and imagine Manon with a baby lol.
SJM loves Aelin and other characters way too much not to give us an insight on them as married couples, but since her books are huge and it's her, it needs a plot with drama, addressing traumas, repressed feelings, worldbuilding, and sex, and Manorian's got all of that.
8. Abraxos
We need more Abraxos, that's just a fact.
Wow that was a long one. Anyways, in conclusion, we're getting that Manorian book. Pretty sure it's gonna a book rather than a novella (TOD was also planned as a novella but then guess what) because there is just SO MUCH possible content.

STOP A SECOND!!
IS IT JUST ME OR DOES "EASY" BY CAMILA CABELLO GIVE OFF SUCH MANORIAN VIBES LIKE-
"You tell me that I'm complicated, but that might be an understatement."
"You really really know me, the future and old me, all of the mazes and the madness in my mind. You really really love, you now me and you love me."
"Always thought I was hard to love till you made it seem so easy."
"Touch me 'til I find myself, in a feeling, tell me with your hands that you're never leaving."
"All I know is you, heal me when I'm broken, heal me when I'm broken. All I know is you, saved me and you know it, saved me and you know it."
Like-
I- this is literally the two of them, no?!

THANK YOU SO MUCH NO I’LL JUST GO CRY IN THE CORNER.
I Miss you (Nestaq)
Anonymous asked: “ congrats on 1k!! for the fix thing can you either do some nestaq or nessian angst? i love your account, and your writing is so good! “
Major angst ahead. Prepare yourselves.
Send me a prompt!
Masterlist
It had been two months.
For two months, Nesryn had been tucked away in the Eridun aerie, never leaving their room. She lay in their bed, arm stretched across the cold, empty sheets beside her.
Everything had happened so fast. Nesryn had heard him from across that battlefield, where he screamed over the broken body of Kadara. He ripped a hand through his half-shorn hair, too consumed by his grief to notice the wyvern closing in.
Nesryn remembered the way the beast slammed it’s tail into his gut.
She could still hear the strangled scream that had passed her lips, foreign to her own ears.
She could almost see the arrow that flew seemingly of its own accord through the witch’s heart as she ran, pushing her way through the colliding armies, praying she wasn’t too late.
And when she had reached him… She remembered feeling something breaking within her like a china plate on a stone floor. Blood had bubbled from his lips and his dark, glassy eyes met hers. She had fallen to the ground beside him, pressing her small hands to the punctures marring his abdomen. The leather armor he wore was shredded and smoking at the edges.
“Poison,” he’d gasped, feebly trying to push her hands away. There was wyvern poison pushing its way through his blood, staining the veins through which it ran. She had whipped her head around, shouting for a healer, of Yrene, for Aelin- anyone that could help him. No one answered her cries. Her vision blurred as she realized what was going to happen.
He was going to die.
“Nesryn,” He had gasped, “I love you. I’m- so sorry.” His hand reached for her wrist, but she would not move hers from his wound.
“Don’t you dare apologize.” Her voice was shaking, she pushed harder on the punctures, blood still coursing through her fingers in scarlet waves. “You’ll be fine. We’ll go back to the Southern Continent and you will be Khagan, and we will live happily ever after.” Her lip trembled, tears splashing onto his chest.
“You’re not leaving me,” she insisted, choking back a sob. She could see the light leaving his dark eyes and sense the life ebbing out of him as that poison grew closer to his heart. From the way he had clenched her fingers, he had known it was the end.
“Kiss me,” he breathed, wincing as she leaned over him, trying to hide his pain.
She had gently pressed her lips to his, bringing one hand up to cup his face. “I love you,” she whispered, saltwater spilling down her cheeks as she pulled his head onto her lap. “I will always love you, my winged prince.”
The ghost of a smile had graced his mouth before he let out a strangled sound. His head jerked once to the side, his fingers clawed at the dirt. Then he was still. Sobs wracked her small frame as she mourned the loss of her beloved, completely oblivious to the battle raging around them.
Minutes or hours passed before Yrene had found them tucked against Kadara’s lifeless flank. Nesryn had still held his head in her lap, stroking her hands through his blood-crusted hair.
She remembered the strong arms of a silver haired Fae peeling his limp body away from her, then wrapping around her to carry her away from the man that she loved.
Nieth’s arrow had been snapped in half, her spirit sapped from her bones.
As she stroked the cold sheets beside her, a tear fell down her cheek, splashing to the pillowcase that still smelled like him.
“I miss you, Sartaq.”
