I really hate how Sophie got in between keefe and fitz friendship, especially because they literally GREW UP TOGETHER. And not to mention Keefe was basically was apart of Fitzs family since keefe had a bad situation. I know its not Sophies fault and I don't blame her cuz stuff like this happens all the time but it's irritating when they have so much history and it's thrown away over Sophie getting in the middle of them. I wish/hope their friendship gets rekindled in the new book because it'd be really sweet. Especially if they age up the characters and fitz is keefes best man.
aroace sophie and fitz… something about both of them saying everything felt wrong when they were dating but they cared about each other so what could be wrong?
Stina hating Sophie for laughing at her when Sophie was laughing at a sudden super petty interaction after having the worst day of her life.
Youre walking around with a strange woman you dont know, who is impossibly sad and seemingly a hermit who you live with, after being kidnapped, interogated/threatend and (forecfully) removed from your old life. Youre in some random shop and a lady walks in with her kid. the shop owners son and the ladys daughter imdeatly get in an argument and try to have a slap fight.
I would laugh to, imagine watching a super somber movie and an hour and twently minuts in there is an incredibly petty interaction. Sophie was not laughing at you girl, she was laughing at the shere obsurdity she was witnessing.
Stina leaving the interaction: O: That girl dosent know me and she was laughing at me >:<
Sophie is leaving it wondering what the hell a bad match is and imdeatly forgetting about Stina because oh right she needs to get a new life because she lost her old one.

In this essay I will- no but seriously the concept of money in the lost cities is ridiculous
Rant under cut
*ahem* So first up elves are given a birth fund of 5 million lusters, and lusters are worth 1 million dollars each, therefore each elf starts off with $5×10¹² (meaning you would only need 183 elves' birth funds to equal the entire world's net worth (estimated $9.14×10¹⁴) btw).
HOW THE FUH HAS THEIR ECONOMY NOT CRASHED YET??? IF EVERYONES RICH THEN NO ONES RICH??? IS INFLATION NOT A THING??? DOES THEIR ECONOMY NOT JUST DIE EVERYTIME SOMEONE IS BORN AND MONEY SPAWNS IN THEIR ACCOUNT MAGICALLY???
Asumming they somehow don't have inflation, someone in the first book (I forgot who) said that people don't have to work for money, they work for fun. So money is just a spiritual concept and doesn't really matter since everyone assumes you have the money to buy stuff? Bitch thats communism. Everyone has money that will almost certainly never run out, so everyone has no money, and everything is free and you can just take it. Sure in communism its assumed that money separates class and its different in the Lost Cities but thats a rant for another day.
Anyways, onto the reason why I got so into this, taxes! Boo! Do they have taxes? If so, what the hell is the tax system??? Do they have high income tax? Property tax? VAT??? Where does the money go to??? The Sanctuary??? But can't an elf just single-handedly fund it since they're so rich???
Thanks for listening to my rant and feel free to add on or fact check me since I probably am wrong about some things in this post
