I genuinely feel so bad for Baide
I know she was just a minor antagonistic force and we don’t know much about her except that she chose Jack Barlowe to be her rider and she was described as being temperamental.
But still, she in no way deserved to be betrayed by Jack. She didn’t deserve to be controlled and then cruelly murdered by him – as though she meant nothing.
I felt for her when I read that her gold eyes were opaque and then when Jack started talking about how easily he controlled her and how easily the magical bond she gave the two of them was replaced (I’m presuming with the magic to control the wyvern) - my heart just broke for her.
