Ep. 59 - Eldest: Arya Svit-kona & Ceris

Arya is not okay right now.

Lucy and Darien get a crash course in elven etiquette in Eldest chapter 19, “Arya Svit-kona” and 20, “Ceris.”

Talking points include Arya crashing out, learning new words, exploring alternatives to avoiding long-held grudges, Eragon's “new” feelings, theorizing about the emotional regulation skills of elves, the evolutionary implications of dwarves having 14 toes, and a darker interpretation of Arya rushing the dwarves companions away.
