AEITA Characters On Twitter

Can we just talk about the fact that Avitas Harper

Spoilers for all the AEITA books including the end of Sky

Helped Laia break Elias and Darin out of Kauf by giving her information.

Befriended a Scholar slave, Bee, when he was stationed at Kauf presumably as a Fiver which would have been when he was like 12-14 years old, and ten or so years later she still remembered him.

Made sure Helene would eat even when she was really stressed out and busy with work.

Kept Dex's secret about his sexuality, literally, did not say anything to anyone.

Kept Helene's secret about her ability to heal people.

Trusted Helene's judgement but also wasn't afraid to challenge her when he felt it was necessary.

Helped Laia escape by cutting the ropes binding her because he knew Elias, who was Helene's best friend, would never forgive her if she harmed Laia. Even though he was face to face with his brother in that moment he still put other people first.

Went through hell serving the Commandant even though he must have hated her because he had to know more about his brother, who he'd gone to school with but presumably didn't know was his brother at the time.

Makes sure Helene doesn't get hurt even though she's being stubborn. And when she does get hurt, he refuses to leave her, by standing up to the freaking Nightbringer.

Disobey's Helene's orders to collapse the tunnels because he could never leave her behind.

Makes sure to tell Helene she is beautiful, with or without a mask and scars. This is huge, do you know how many people would judge someone for a facial difference?

Fights beside Helene, time and time again.

Brings Helene the tea she needs because he knows she will be too embarrassed to get it, and is kind to her when she's obviously uncomfortable that he's had need to get this tea before.

Kept Mirra's secret.

Took Helene to the same room he went to when he found out how his father died, because he knew what she would need after losing her sister.

The way he handled finding out how his father died. It must have wrecked him, and yet he held himself together and even let the information be used.

Tells Helene to make the promise to her nephew and is also very sweet to the baby.

And after all of that, all of those things, he still didn't believe he was good or kind or had any of his father's better qualities.

He deserved so, so much better. Helene deserved better. Elias deserved to spend time with his brother. I will never forgive that ending because it ruined the whole freaking series for me in the end.

It's ok to let characters live. It's ok not to kill everyone. It's actually ok to let readers finish a book with tears in their eyes but also with their hearts full.

More praise for Sabaa Tahir! Team Ember forever!

[remusfinglupin]

Laia: Elias is so calm and composed all of the time. I wonder how he does it.

Elias, internally: Fuck fuck fuck fuck f

[aeitascholardom]

Avitas, @ Helene: this is the best team I’ve ever been part of!

Helene: that’s really sad.
