Elain. Azriel. Lucien. Gwyn.
At this point, they're basically Schrödinger's ship.
They're together, they're not together, they're mates, they're not mates, they're in love, they're not in love... and all possibilities exist simultaneously until Sarah finally gives us that book.
Which team am I on?Honestly? I'm on Team "Whatever Sarah Writes Well."
I've seen the chemistry between Elain and Azriel from the beginning. To me, it always felt as obvious as Nesta and Cassian. Maybe that's because Azriel is my second favorite character (after Cassian, obviously).
There's something about him that gets me every time. The way he quietly gravitates toward wounded people. The way he understands pain without needing it explained. The way he wants to protect others because he knows exactly what it feels like to be broken.
And I have to admit, I'd love to read a story where mates don't end up together. Two people choosing each other despite destiny pulling them elsewhere? That would be such an interesting direction for romantasy—and Sarah has never been afraid to challenge the genre.
And honestly? I love that trope too.
The man who waits. The man who never pressures her, but makes it clear he'll be there if she ever reaches for him. The one who falls first. The one who would change his entire life if she simply gave him a chance.
If anyone can write that without making it feel cheesy, it's Sarah.
And then there's the part of me that absolutely adores Gwynriel.
Two deeply traumatized people learning to trust each other. Moving carefully at first. Taking small steps. Healing side by side until one day they realize they've completely fallen in love.
As I've said, I just love whatever is well written.
Release the book and put us out of our collective misery.
