"It's strange, isn't it, how you don't know how big a part of you someone is until they're threatened? And then you think that you can't possibly go on if something happens to them, but the most frightening part is that, actually, you will go on, you'll have to go on, with them or without them." (Fitz speaking to himself with an unconscious Dutiful)
It was such a pleasure to return to Fitz and Nighteyes' story and have the Fool once again play a huge role in it. I loved the other returning characters too, including Chade and Kettricken (although she didn't appear as often as I'd have liked). And the new characters, including Hap, Jinna, Dutiful, and Laurel, were great as well. The callouts to the Liveship Traders were amazing. Ugh, and the meaning behind the quote I chose is devastating!!!I didn't even realize Nighteyes' death scene until I started the next chapter!
I look forward to continuing this trilogy!
