I don't care what anyone says, I'm taking rowan's vision as canon!!! Aelin and Rowan are going to have the big, happy family neither of them got to have when they were young!!! Too bad we never get officially meet them though. I wanna know their names and personalities!!
Me too! I really want to know their names because if I write fic, I hate coming up with names!!! But real talk, it’s like what Maeve saw, right? That they would have 1,000 years together? So basically this is just another vision about them that is #confirmed. A huge, happy family. According to the book, the birth order goes girl, boy, boy, girl, baby mystery.
Whoops, headcanon incoming!!!
Papa Rowan freaking dotes on his daughters. They are so sassy and he’s constantly surprised by the observations that come out of their mouths.
The kids all have equal time training, learning arts and sciences, and learning government/diplomacy. Even though the eldest daughter will inherit the title and the rule of Terrasen, all of them need to be prepared.
Aelin doesn’t want her eldest daughter to feel the weight of the crown in the same way she did. The way that held her down and felt like shackles.
Aelin has a special bond with her eldest daughter because Aelin never thought she would live long enough to have children, to be worried that her fate might end up on someone else’s shoulders.
One day while they are talking, she rests her cheek on Aelin’s head and reassures her that it will be ok.
Aelin is completely taken aback. She hadn’t realized that her fear was so transparent.
Lorcan is pretty uncomfortable around any kids that aren’t his own, which they have a lot of fun with.
Like, they tell knock-knock jokes and he doesn’t get it. Which is so much better than if he had played along, somehow.
Their eldest son is quite serious and thoughtful, and looks up to Aedion in the same way that Aedion used to look up to Rowan.
Which Aelin notices and never lets Aedion live down.
It becomes even rarer for someone to have any significant amount of power, since the gods are gone.
So when their youngest daughter shows signs of having power similar to pre-KoA Aelin, they worry.
What if it means that the gods are back?
Cue the quest to find answers: tl;dr, it’s fine. They just have to keep an eye on the library because it’s very flammable.
Aelin feels like this is payback for all the grief she put her parents through when she couldn’t control her own powers.
Their third child, a son, turns out to be a prodigy on the piano.
He falls in love with a dashing orchestra conductor and they live a bohemian artist lifestyle.
Rowan and Aelin are run ragged every single day of their lives with some drama. Some injury or jealousy or triumph.
The exhaustion is completely different from when they were at war, though.
Then, it was dread that weighed them down.
Now, they are exhausted from just… being so full. Full of love and happiness and laughter. Even the times when their children argue, they know they will laugh about it together later. So they just look at one another, exchange a Look, and deal with the next feud.
