You know what, there’s something that PISSES me off in Tawny Man. When Nighteyes die, after Fitz goes to Kettricken and he grieves with her, he goes back to Beloved and Beloved says something along the line: “I’m glad she could give you what I couldn’t. I loved Nighteyes, but I only knew him through you, as an extension of you” (or something like that)
And it PISSES ME OFF. Like, Beloved spent days and days with Nighteyes in Jhaampe, feeding him, both of them freaking out over Fitz’s condition. When Nighteyes all but broke through his window to snarl at everyone while Chade, Kettricken and Starling were upsetting Fitz, Beloved was the only one who wasn’t afraid, and he pushed them all out and remained alone with Fitz and Nighteyes.
During their quest to find Verity, he slept nearly every night between Nighteyes and Fitz. He hunted with them, played with them, fought alongside them.
When he laid his fingers on Fitz’s wrist to unlock Kettle’s Skill, he downright bonded with Nighteyes as Fitz had bonded with him, all three of their souls merging and becoming one. He saw him, knew him like only Fitz did.
Later, in Tawny Man, when he came back to Fitz and spent weeks in his cabine, he could almost hear Nighteyes, could feel him. His bond with him was as strong as his bond with Fitz, for someone both unskilled and unWitted.
When Fitz lost himself in Nighteyes’s body to save him, Beloved knew both of them enough that he could find Fitz there and bring him back.
When Fitz fled through the Skillpillar with Dutiful, Beloved remained behind with Nighteyes, and fought and risked his own life to protect him.
And yet, AND YET, Hobb wants us to believe that he didn’t know him, that he was just a random wolf that Beloved saw as a part of Fitz??? It PISSES ME OFF
