Silently, he slid from his seat to kneel before her, her hands caught inside his own. “I will never tell you not to be angry. When the world has taken so much from you, sometimes anger is all you have left. But if you do nothing with it, it will consume you.”

His eyes were bright in the firelight as he said, “So be angry, my lion, and let the world tremble in your wake.”

So the golem has been destroyed…where are we going now?

Is Damien gonna help Arielle rebuild the golem before the race? Is Mikira gonna have to race on a regular horse?

#our deadly designs #this dark descent #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #okay firstly - love a recap of the previous book. shoutout to the author for always doing that #this was a decent conclusion to a duology that I thought was decent overall. I guess!#it’s much more focused on the political intrigue vs book one being focused around the competition #definitely my favourite part was the magic dubbyk-adjacent bodysharing situation(S !! multiple!)#love that shit. “it’s our head now” (my city now…) asdjghfskgjhf exactly the dynamic I love #(though wouldn't say it's a MASSIVE focus. maybe don’t read the duology just for guyinyourhead trope if you’re a fan of it like me)#Happy that there was a little more exploration of Mikira’s aroacespec identity; and I liked the start of a f/f/m qpr..#though tbh both sides of that relationship are like. only lightly developed.#I felt like all the relationships were a bit underbaked tbh #ari and damien’s relationship was just kinda there - didn’t care about it much. also I just don’t like damien. lol #i mean somewhat interesting character i guess i just dont like him. I do think that’s intentional #his ending for him is kinda hilarious though. love that.#once again i am over halfway through the month and only just getting to my reviewpost of the first book i read.#pmo that ALL the reviews are talking about ace representation when it’s aroace?#like . aroacespec for both of them. but thoroughly intertwined - never just ace
