it's hilarious to me how some e/riels think sjm is going to ignore everything that happened in hofas and sideline the story she's currently writing just to focus on elain and e/riel in acotar 6 lol
guys, if she wanted to kick off acotar 6 with elain, she would have left at least some kind of hook for the character in acosf or hofas, but instead, she left that hook for other characters: nesta and azriel!
like I'm not ruling out the possibility of elain getting a pov later in the book or in acotar 7, but thinking she'll be the central focus of the book, or that all three books will be about her, is just insane 😭
