On the occasion of the holiday season and winter solstice @acourtdelaluna and I want to share this stunning Gwynriel art by the exceptionally talented Indrakinn .... I am in awe with the detail and just the entire vibe of this commission.

The bonus chapter which occurs on solstice is the first time we see signs of Gwyn and Az being mates and the entire mood after his conversation with Gwyn is such a turning point in their equation, we see them interact and banter so much more after that ... Hence the Winter Solstice will always be special for the Gwynriels ...

I am honoured to share this wonderful Gwynriel art I commissioned by the sweet @:aileemarie_art! The idea behind the art is Azriel and Gwyn slipping away from a ball to have a moment with one another by the water and of course, by the water lilies!

I don’t think anything could have prepared me for how spectacular this art turned out and I think Ailee profusely for all the time and energy she put into this commission! Working with her was a breeze and I highly recommend you commission her!

I am utterly in love with the final product and I hope you all enjoy it too!

One thing I trust about HOFAS is Bryce’s opinion and perspective on the acotar characters. She’s in a completely different world full of strangers from the medieval era, so she’ll have no option but to be in tune with her surroundings and the characters she interacts with and be very observant (which we know she is anyways).

With that being said, if any interaction between couples happen, it will be noted by Bryce. If a Gwynriel interaction happens, Bryce will know. If a look of “quiet encouragement” from Azriel towards Gwyn happens, it will be noted by Bryce. If a lingering look passed between them, Bryce will notice this too. And that’s why I’m so excited for HOFAS (other than it just being a CC book ofc)

I just reread the bonus chapter and I'm just, as always, struck by how fucking obvious Gwyn and Azriel's set up is.

✨ He found it already occupied. His shadows had not warned him. It was too late to bank without appearing like he was running, Azriel landed in the ring a few feet from where Gwyn practiced in the chill night, her sword glimmering like ice in the moonlight.

I'm telling you those shadows are going to play wingmen for Az.

✨ His shadows peered over his wings at her. The young priestess smiled--and Azriel thought it might have been directed at his curious shadows.

Does anyone ever really smile at his shadows except for Gwyn 😭

✨ "Happy Solstice," she said, as much a dismissal as it was a holiday blessing. -- He snorted. "Are you kicking me out?" -- Gwyn's teal eyes flashed with alarm. "No! I mean, I don't mind sharing the ring. I just...I know you like to be alone." Her mouth quirked to the side, crinkling the freckles on her nose. "Is that why you came up here?"

Gwyn really indirectly said he was going to be a brooding ass so let's wish him a happy solstice and let him go and he still teased her back instead of taking the opening she gave him. Also, no one pays enough attention to this detail but SHE KNOWS he likes to be alone 👀 girl is paying close attention to him alright 👀

✨ Sort of. "I forgot something," he reminded her. "At two in the morning?" -- Pure amusement glittered in her stare. Better than the pain and grief he'd spied a moment before. So he offered her a crooked smile. "I can't sleep without my favorite dagger."-- "A comfort to every growing child." -- Azriel's lips twitched.

Gwyn has no filters on I love her 😂😂😂 she really indirectly called his lying ass out.

✨ "How was the party?" Her breath curled in front of her mouth, and one of his shadows darted out to dance with it before twirling back to him. Like it heard some silent music. -- "Fine," he said, and realized a heartbeat later that it wasn’t a socially acceptable answer. "It was nice." Not much better. So he asked, "Did you and the priestesses have a celebration?"

For a 500+ year old immortal Az you should've been better at this game, but I'm proud of you for at least being self-aware and trying to have a normal conversation. 2/5 on the effort but still appreciated.

✨ She angled her head, hair shining like molten metal. "Do you sing?” -- He blinked. It wasn't every day that people took him by surprise, but..."Why do you ask?" -- "They call you shadowsinger. Is it because you sing?" -- “I am a shadowsinger--it's not a title that someone just made.” -- She shrugged again, irreverently. Az narrowed his eyes, studying her. "Do you, though?" she pressed. "Sing?" -- Azriel couldn't help his soft chuckle. "Yes."

1. Not many people take him by surprise but she did. -- 2. I wouldn't be surprised because it's funny as hell if she asked him because of shadowSINGER -- 3. Azriel taking offense and reaffirming he is, in fact, a SHADOWSINGER. -- 4. Sarah confirmed there will be a scene of him singing, as far as we know Gwyn is likely the only character who knows he does, also the fact that SJM created something common between the two of them and it's that they both sing? -- 5. It's sweet to think that Gwyn wanted to know something about him and asked him about something she herself loves to do, which is sing.

✨ "I blame Cassian for this. He's too busy making eyes at Nesta to notice such mistakes these days." Azriel laughed. "I’ll give you that."

Gwyn complaining about Nessian and Az is like "I can relate " 😂

✨ Gwyn smiled broadly. "Thank you." -- Azriel dipped his head in a sketch of a bow, something restless settling in him. Even his shadows had calmed. As if content to lounge on his shoulders and watch.

She smiled at him and both him and his shadows felt calm 🥹 like compare how aloof and depressed he was at the start of his scene with Gwyn to him feeling this just after one conversation with her 😭😭 it's so 😭😭 I love them so fucking much.

✨ Gwyn nodded her farewell, again facing the ribbon. A warrior sizing up an opponent, all traces of that charming irreverence gone. Azriel entered the warmth of the stairwell, and as he descended, he could have sworn a faint, beautiful singing followed him. Could have sworn his shadows sang in answer.

"That charming irreverence" Gwyn is so unapologetic about that irreverence I love her for it -- also, that's a clear, in-your-face, clue about a mating bond. I stand by that and my opinion remains unchanged since I first read the bonus chapter in 2021.

✨ Clotho was smart enough to see through his deflection. She wrote, "I’ll give it to Gwyneth, Tell her a friend left it for her". -- He wouldn't go so far as to call Gwyn a friend, but... "Fine. Thank you."

I don't really find this alarming when people try to push into my face. It's obvious they're not in love "yet" and Azriel doesn't have any friends outside the IC, he doesn't know how to label it. It's still early to even label it. That "but..." leaves an opening there.

✨ Clotho's pen moved once more. She deserves something as beautiful as this. I thank you for the joy it shall bring to her. -- Something sparked in Azriel's chest, but he only nodded his thanks and left. He could picture it, though, as he ascended the stairs back to the House proper. How Gwyn's teal eyes might light upon seeing the necklace. For whatever reason... he could see it. -- But Azriel tucked away the thought, consciously erasing the slight smile it brought to his face. Buried the image down deep, where it glowed quietly. -- A thing of secret, lovely beauty.

When Clotho thanked him for the joy the gift wil bring to Gwyn that's when something sparked in him. That's when he started to picture that joy. "For whatever reason" she's likely your mate bro that's why but we'll save that for later. He was aware and conscious enough to erase his smile yet bury the image of Gwyn's joy in his chest. He had a DAMN SMILE on his face while thinking of Gwyn's joy, like, that's so precious 😭 and Clotho is 100% true, she deserves all the joy the world has to offer for her (I just wish it wasn't a necklace meant for someone else). I get the kindness behind the act but it can bite him in the ass if SJM brings it up in the main book.

That's only a teaser for what's to come and that's the purpose of the bonus chapter. I can see why Sarah was more excited for readers to read Azriel's chapter than Feysand's chapter. She knew what she was doing here and what she's setting up. I didn't want to post the earlier scenes since I don't want to deal with people showing up with pitchforks and I don't need to talk about other ships I'm happy and content to gush about my own.

Every time I reread this chapter it just reminds me of how obvious Gwyn and Azriel's set up is and you don't need a pairing to bang or make out to create a set up. We didn't even get much but the eyes going to be such a fun couple, I need more of funny and easy-going Azriel.

This amazing commission of Gwynriel represented by the two of cups (bonding, relationship, compatibility and soulmates) was done by the incredible @monolime ♥️ It was such a pleasure to work with them and I’m in awe at the beauty of this piece ♥️

- A Court of Silver Flames For this last day of Gwyn Week, we commissioned this beautiful art of Gwyn and Az looking lovingly at each other under the Velaris starlight. And, of course, with their shadows around Gwyn, since they seem to be very fond of her.

Gwyn whispered, “𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐟 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬.” Nesta straightened at the words, as if they were a prayer and a summons. Gwyn lifted the blade. “𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐦𝐞.” (acosf p. 621)

Gwyn lifted trembling fingers to her brow, touching 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐛𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐫. Nesta’s voice was thick as she declared, “𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐲𝐫𝐢𝐞.” (acosf p. 622)

@gwynweekofficial Day 1: Inspiration

Gwyn smiled again, her eyes bright. “Our stories are worth telling.”

Gorgeous!

✨ Starting off @gwynweekofficial with inspiration. ✨

There is so many great things to say about Gwyn Berdara and reasons why I love her character. From her kindness and loyalty, to never judging Nesta or Emerie by being nothing but patient understanding and accepting. ♥️

And what I find most inspiring is her determination and bravery. No one could blame her character if she chose to stay hidden in the library after the horrors she endured. But rather than letting that fear shackle her, she chooses to rise above it.

I believe her story and journey are far from being over because we know there is more healing to be done and although SJM has already shown us how far she's come alongside her found sisters, I trust Sarah will honor her arc in a way that continues to define Gwyn as an inspirational character. ♥️

A huge thank you to aseriaart (tagged in IG post) for the opportunity to work with her! Take some time to check out her work, she is so talented and has such a unique beautiful way of rendering her work. I knew before we got started that her version of Gwyn would be absolutely breathtaking - I was right. I'm so excited to finally share this beautiful portrait of Gwyn. 💙
