I truly believe that Lucien knows he's not Berons' son. Knows that his powers come from Day and is hiding them to protect his mother. Loyal to a fault as always. Hiding in plain sight.

✩🐚🦊Review:
Bardugo’s spin on classic fairytales are a delight as always.
“The Language of Thorns” includes six short stories that are inspired by myth, folklore, and fairytales. Each are paired with stunning illustrations that really give it a storybook feel.
In her author’s note, she shares that she was inspired to write this collection by “the note of trouble that I think many of us hear in familiar tales, because we know—even as children—that impossible tasks are on odd way to choose a spouse, that predators come in many guises, that a prince’s whims are often cruel.” She takes bits and pieces from old tales and reshapes them with her dark, gripping, and masterful writing to make us, as readers, question the classics we grew up with. New morals are attributed to each story and I was blown away when I was left to ruminate on them every. Single. Time.
You do not have to read any of the Grishaverse books to pick this one up, which makes it perfect for new readers hoping to be introduced to Bardugo’s works and fans, like myself, who keep coming back for more!

There's a suspicious lack of a redheaded privateer in the S&B trailer and I'm just hoping it wasn't shown for shock value because I swear to god if they didn't put Sturmhond in the fucking show I'm gonna riot-

"Wake up." This time, I don't recognize the voice. "Bring her out of it."
My lids flutter open. Am I still dreaming? A boy leans over me: ruddy hair, a broken nose. He reminds me of the too-clever fox, another of Ana Kuya's stories, smart enough to get out of one trap, but too foolish to realize he won't escape a second. There's another boy standing behind him, but this one is a giant, one of the largest people I've ever seen. His golden eyes have the Shu tilt.
"Alina," says the fox. How does he know my name?
The door opens, and I see another stranger's face, a girl with short dark hair and the same golden gaze as the giant.
"They're coming," she says.
The fox curses. "Put her back down." The giant comes closer. Darkness bleeds back in.
"No, please—"
It's too late. The dark has me.
Siege and Storm // Leigh Bardugo

Never forget that Nikolai Lantsov, former King of Ravka, inventor, general, bastard prince, secret privateer, and professional flirt knows how to juggle. This man never ceases to amaze me.
