my personal theory on where the heck burning spice cookies arms went
My favorite beast so far is BS cookie but I always wondered where the heck this mans arms went and i know other people are wondering too.
I mean really where do two other pairs of arms go? something had to have happen to them. I've seen some people guess that he just lost them when he got weakened and sealed away or some but i got a theory a more.. angsty one if you will >:D and it's all gotta do with a little scene in the very chapter itself.
Walk with me here. Burning Spice is about to get locked away by the in the tree. he's doing everything he can to fight against it and he's getting close to freedom since he's able hold out on his own for a bit, he's a warlord he can handle himself well in combat and is probably loving the thrill of it all. Suddenly one of the hands of the very witches that made him and the others comes down and grabs him. He fights and struggles but the witches surpass him in every aspect. suddenly he feels the witch begin to tug on his lower two arms, he tries punching scratching anything to get the witch to let go and then.
pain shoot's throughout his body more painful then any battle wound he's had inflicted before. the witch drops him and he crashes to the ground disoriented and unable to fight as he get's sealed into the tree.
centuries later when he goes to reclaim what's his from the thief he's enraged. Here she is weak and helpless in his grasps. He was hoping for a fight. But right at this moment while she's writhing around in his grasp he's reminded of the torment he went through. Weak and helpless in the grasps of a stronger, mightier, ruthless being. He then decides to inflict the pain that was cause on him to her. Those wings to her were what his other arms were to him. Since he was debilitated then so should she for waisting his time.
He get's phantom pain from time to time. On occasions he tries to reach for something when his other hands are busy only to realize he couldn't. He also needed to get used to fighting a bit different as well. But he wouldn't let that stop him from taking revenge and setting out on his destructive conquest once again.
