Incredibly violent take of mine but I actually don’t think you need to relate to a story in any way to enjoy it. You can enjoy a story even if you can’t point at a character and insert some aspect of your personality or identity into them. In fact I would argue the need for a character like that to be present in every single story you experience is a sign of stunted growth.

“I heard some news too. Big news. West Ravka has declared for Nikolai.” That got our attention. “They’re blocking off the western shore of the Fold,” she continued. “So if the Darkling wants weapons or ammunition—” “He’ll have to go through Fjerda,” finished Zoya. But it was bigger than that. This meant the Darkling had lost West Ravka’s coastline, its navy, the already tenuous access Ravka had to trade. “West Ravka now,” Tolya said. “Maybe the Shu Han next.” “Or Kerch,” put in Zoya. “Or both!” crowed Adrik. I could almost see the tendril of hope twisting its way through our ranks.

Yay! More slow and painful deaths of civilians from starvation! After all, we don't like the member of a persecuted minority on the throne who tears his ass off to lead the people of this country through all the obstacles that WE arrange! We want another Lantsov leech on the throne!

Disgusting twats, ugh.

You know, over time, I have an aversion to Christianity, to which I technically belong, according to which my loved ones and most likely myself are buried and will be buried. But I'm increasingly thinking about how violent its adoption was, that we still celebrate pagan holidays that they never managed to eradicate and had to come up with their own justification. And how little we really know about the customs (which is partly due, of course, to the fact that each area had its own small and not so small differences). It makes me cringe.

I really liked it when Bardugo went out of her way to establish that Shu Han's scientists tried very hard to find a real, empirical source of Grisha powers, and failed spectaculary, which combined with the fact that Grisha comes in every shape and every colour was supposed to show how there is literally no difference between them and otkazatsya, and that both those groups are just people, because there's no biological differences between them, and so any kind of predjudice towards Grisha is sensless

Only for the books to promptly establish that Grisha are more prone to corruption than otkazatsya, that Grisha have the greed, and the hunger for power embedded in their bones together with their talents. The narrative never says the Grisha are evil, but "Small Science has always been about keeping power in check", amplifiers "have something to do with a check on Grisha powers", and the "greed of men" can be shoved up your ass when it's only Grisha who can fall for it, since otkazatsya cannot reach the making, and therefore are free from the danger of losing themselves in their powers. Grisha, even though anatomically are identical with otazatsya, have that magical, untraceable element to them, that makes them more dangerous.

You don't need to worry that since Grisha are biologically the same as otkazatsya, come from the same enviornments, practice the same religions, and celebrate the same holidays as otkazatsya it might be harder to find a justifiable reason to hate them. Grisha and otkazatsya differ on spiritual level, that's where Grisha's wrongness is, which you aren't able to deny, not really, not ever.

You don't need any actual signs of "otherness" from people you decide to hate, feeling very strongly that they're somehow wrong is more than enough.
