Thoughts while reading crescent city that I hastily texted my friends part 2

Reading HOEB and Ruhn Danaan, Crown Prince of the Valbaran Fae just stormed into the building. I am unwell.

Tell me about your theories! Please!

thank you for indulging me nonnie.

OK so there has to be something said for the half half thing going on with hunt. he's got one gold eye and one black, one pointed ear and one rounded. i'm not sure what to make of this exactly but we know hunt's backstory never really got into aside from his mother being killed and him joining the rebellion. so going off that i think there's something about his father maybe being fae (hence the ear). i've always held the theory that either bryce or hunt is the missing asteri sibling.

based off the HoEB ending i'm thinking more and more it's bryce (star power and king of autumn etc etc) BUT i can't discredit the way hunt's past is an enigma.

his arms! one coated in lightening (umbra mortis my love) and the other isn't but holding a snake. why is this the 'fae' side of him?? i don't know but also is he running from something? cursed by something? what is it about this side of him exactly? to me his gaze is set off to the side, unlike the HoEB cover where byrce is looking directly front-ward. could just be artist interpretation but also i doubt it, why would hunt not look to the front like bryce? is he looking at her perhaps? looking into his past? I MUST KNOW. (i take it back my version was just severely low quality)

and onto his chest. we can see in the HoEB cover bryce has a lock in the middle of her chest, and hunt doesn't. instead, he has an almost key looking thing and of course i have eyes and i've maintained that they're mates from the start but this is giving me 'hunt is bryce's missing piece' vibes. and obviously their attempt at being platonic is absolute bullshit.

suffice it to say, i'm very excited about the release of HoSB and i apologize for how slap-and-dash this has all come out but my mind is racing about a mile a minute! and regardless of what i think, CC is turning out to be the prettiest series i own

the only thing that triggers me about House of Earth and Blood is the amount of times Hunt and Bryce ate eggs and bacon for breakfast

Crescent City tops book charts!

Yo! I’m bored and need a brief break from writing. So. 

SPOILERS FOR CRESCENT CITY: HOUSE OF EARTH AND BLOOD BELOW

.

.

.

I see y’all shouting about the books like The Walking Dead and The Book of Breathings being in HOEB but I haven’t seen anyone bring this up, and I felt it worth mentioning. 

“They were a strange, unique group, the witches. Though they looked like humans, their considerable magic and long lives marked them as Vanir, their power mostly passed through the female line. All of them deemed civitas. The power was inherited, from some ancient source that the witches claimed was a three-faced goddess . . .” (House of Earth and Blood, pg. 376 hardback version)

Three-faced goddess. 

Three-faced goddess. 

Three-faced goddess. 

Now, where have we heard that before?

“. . . and going through the Sacred Words to the Three-Faced Goddess as though they were reading a recipe.” (Heir of Fire, pg. 90 hardback version)

That's the earliest mention of the Three-Faced Goddess I can find in relation to the witches in the ToG world. Idk what it means beyond the witches between the two worlds are more than likely related, but yeah. Seeing it made me smile.
