Listen in as we discuss chapters 49 through 56 of A Court Of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas. Podcast inspired by Shadow Daddy, Xaden Riorson, in The Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, and Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros. Also enjoy our summary book notes: Chapter 49 Starts off moments after wall destroyed. Feyre monolog about Nesta's connection to the cauldron. Talk of saving the humans and making plans for clamoring Elaine to look human to Grayson. Nesta has never worn pants. "I'd have no doubt you'd start a riot if you did" -Cassian. Cassian tells her to take out anyone who tries to hurt her and have her a dagger. Feyre talks to Amren about the Bryaxis as she wants to make another bargin. Chapter 50 Amren and Feyre meet Bryaxis. All it wants is sunlight, moonlight, and stars. Offers it a window to obey her orders, new tattoo. Secret from Rhysand until after she made the deal. "If I already need to redecorate to match Thesan's splendor, I might add well or in a window." Chapter 51 At the illyrian mountain camp. Rhysand needed to show he was still their high lord even though he has trained with them. "They need to remember I'm their high lord, and I have no intention of loosening the leash". Feyre turned on by it. Devlon noticed Nesta, ask of she was a witch, she said yes. Witches amass power beyond their natural reserve, they use archaic tools and spells to harness more power than allotted to them. Glamoured Elaine and at the estate. Chapter 52 Elaine talks about her trauma in not being able to take a bath. Feyre compliments grayson's looks but still calls him hawk nosed. They ask Nolan and Grayson to offer their estate to all humans to ask. Jurian told them what happened to Elaine and Nesta. Chapter 53 Why did jurian really go to Nolan and Grayson? Jurian turned by King to sway the queens. Jurian didn't talk about the 6th queen. Jurian trying to find Miryam and Drakon to use in the war. Tamlin shared plans with highburn. I wonder if it was because he knew which side would win and he was trying to help his ppl like once before. Chapter 54 If Rhysand didn't want to look why not ask Feyre? Says 6th queen was given to a death lord who cursed her. Feyre's intrusive thoughts about Lucian not being the high lord son they think. Feyre commands they take care of the humans. Jurian threatens and then the agree to protect but how do you even prove they listened? You fae males come to take our women, are your own not fuckable enough? Elaine won't take the ring off :(. Jurians plans sound like Rhysands under the mountain plans. Jurian gave Intel like Tamlin should have. Chapter 55 Mor talks about how fighting with Jurian and asked about Elaine who still has on her ring. Lays down with Rhysand and discuss the war, in summer court illyrian camp. Chapter 56 Highburn arrived, Rhysand cloaked the army. Why un-cloak them? Feyre documenting the events but not fighting. Cassian bad ass. Hughburn surrendered, Tarquin in the waaaaay back. He drowned them all, should've started with that. Nesta shocked by Cassian's power and help wounded. Azriel no where to be found, no word from Lucian still. Nesta recognized cassian was hurt and wrapped his arm. While holding hands, Mor walks in, cassian pulls his hand away before Nesta was about to speak, and they leave together 😡. Post war sex? Feyre can fight in Adriata and Velaris but not ones like this battle. No cauldron vibes from Nesta and no book updates from Amren. Highburn headed to winter court through the ass crack of Autumn and Summer court. Varien suggests they march north and stay. Feyre created "fae" to spoof them staying Highburn not actually tired and no high leadership. Battle ensued and Nesta watched Cassian. Keir's forces falling and Rhysand drained. Feyre to catch the suriel again.
