So are we just going to ignore that the plan to kill Occtis was known by not only his immediate family but also his extended cousins AND their Vassal House who all apparently had a precise timeline on when the hit was happening??
And that Cyd may or may not likely also know that information either from following Cas or just by listening to conversation for several days if not a week of time by now and is why “Plan’s Changed” in tandem with what happened to Occtis in the city. House Tachonis is in active communication and knows parts of Thjazi’s original plan due to Cyd
Did Thjazi let Occtis join the plan because this mfker got into the info line and found out they were planning Occtis’ death and is why he had no problem with sending him away to get the box tomb with Thaisha for several weeks of travel literal weeks before they were both murdered by the same people
Thjazi Fang tried to protect Occtis by not telling him how much danger he was in, in the literal same way Hal’s family is in danger because Thjazi kept him out of the loop. Interesting how there’s a theme about how hiding the truth from your loved ones no matter your intention of protecting them brings about a different type of danger they aren’t expecting when you aren’t there more or less “protecting them”
Thjazi was executed. Thimble clung to life. Occtis murdered. Thaisha barely survived. Hal has to pick up arms and become a warrior. Cyd got kidnapped. House Royce has fallen, as has their Vassal Davinos.
