1
00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:02,790

00:00:05,630 --> 00:00:07,090

Speaker 3: Oh, it wouldn't be easy Oh yeah, here we go

6
00:00:13,940 --> 00:00:15,940
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be easy bro, but I would be doing

7
00:00:15,980 --> 00:00:19,900
Speaker 3: you the biggest favour ever Welcome to Relatables Baddies Book

8
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,940
Speaker 3: Club Where we will embark on a journey Reading some

9
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,140
Speaker 3: of the finest pieces of literature you have ever laid

10
00:00:25,350 --> 00:00:27,110
Speaker 3: eyes Or is, if that's your preferred way.

11
00:00:27,050 --> 00:00:29,090
Speaker 2: To consume a book, on Oh no no no no

12
00:00:29,130 --> 00:00:33,890
Speaker 2: no no Queen of Shadows, chapters 20 through to 30.

13
00:00:33,890 --> 00:00:41,389
Speaker 1: Woo-hoo! Yes. I liked these chapters, and we said we're

14
00:00:41,409 --> 00:00:44,430
Speaker 1: just doing 10 to get nice and ahead so everyone

15
00:00:44,470 --> 00:00:48,250
Speaker 1: can get the episodes five days early again. Not a

16
00:00:48,390 --> 00:00:50,750
Speaker 1: huge amount of stuff happened, though. Some cool stuff, though.

17
00:00:50,770 --> 00:00:52,570
Speaker 2: We were kind of right in the sense of it

18
00:00:52,590 --> 00:00:57,300
Speaker 2: was a lot of dialogue, Dialogue and more depth to

19
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: the story, I guess.

20
00:00:58,500 --> 00:01:00,819
Speaker 1: Yeah, something did happen. There was a couple of things

21
00:01:00,860 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: that did happen. What I'm saying, not much action, but

22
00:01:05,140 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: there was some cool bomb drops. Yeah, the ending.

23
00:01:07,819 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: I was surprised with the ending. I didn't think that

24
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,260
Speaker 2: was going to happen this soon either.

25
00:01:11,660 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: Is that chapter 30? Yeah. Because you read chapter 30? Wait,

26
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 1: 30 or 20?

27
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,420
Speaker 2: No, I just mean it was simple. No, maybe not 30.

28
00:01:19,420 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 2: I've got the notes on my phone.

29
00:01:20,860 --> 00:01:21,050
Speaker 1: Yeah.

30
00:01:21,370 --> 00:01:24,060
Speaker 2: No, I hear you too, yeah. Yeah, I just didn't

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: think that was going to happen so soon. They were

32
00:01:27,180 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: good though. I listened to like all of them while

33
00:01:30,060 --> 00:01:34,699
Speaker 2: cleaning and like cleaning went like that. Oh, yeah.

34
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,170
Speaker 1: I listened to like four hours of fucking Crescent City

35
00:01:38,190 --> 00:01:40,060
Speaker 1: the other day while I was cleaning my house after

36
00:01:40,110 --> 00:01:44,250
Speaker 1: having guests over when I got home. And it was

37
00:01:44,290 --> 00:01:47,130
Speaker 1: like 11 and then it was 4 p.m. and I

38
00:01:47,150 --> 00:01:48,690
Speaker 1: was like, fuck. Yeah, it's good.

39
00:01:48,730 --> 00:01:50,730
Speaker 2: Sometimes I get in the zone of cleaning too much, though,

40
00:01:50,770 --> 00:01:52,809
Speaker 2: and then I have to rewind. I was like, shit,

41
00:01:52,830 --> 00:01:54,050
Speaker 2: I forgot what I was listening to.

42
00:01:56,010 --> 00:01:58,230
Speaker 1: No, I hear you. I hear you with that. I

43
00:01:58,250 --> 00:01:58,710
Speaker 1: fully hear you.

44
00:01:59,070 --> 00:02:01,740
Speaker 2: But before we get into today's episode, Jake, there was

45
00:02:01,940 --> 00:02:06,140
Speaker 2: a big bomb drop in the Sarah J Maas universe,

46
00:02:06,180 --> 00:02:06,580
Speaker 2: wasn't there?

47
00:02:06,940 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: There was. I saw it this morning.

48
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: I initially thought it was AI.

49
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: So I didn't- Could it be? Could it be?

50
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,700
Speaker 2: I don't know. Because a couple of baddies sent it

51
00:02:16,820 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: on Instagram and I was like, I thought it was

52
00:02:19,020 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 2: AI because I was like, surely there hasn't been a

53
00:02:20,860 --> 00:02:22,660
Speaker 2: leak a month early. It's a month and a half

54
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,750
Speaker 2: early of what the premise and like it's a little

55
00:02:27,770 --> 00:02:31,570
Speaker 2: bit of audio book from the new book A Court

56
00:02:31,590 --> 00:02:32,330
Speaker 2: of Splintered Harmony.

57
00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:36,030
Speaker 1: Fuck, bro. Which is crazy. So you don't think it's

58
00:02:36,050 --> 00:02:38,429
Speaker 1: like a proper leak? You think they meant to put

59
00:02:38,450 --> 00:02:38,709
Speaker 1: it out?

60
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:40,710
Speaker 2: The only reason I think it's real is because the

61
00:02:40,750 --> 00:02:42,690
Speaker 2: narrator is the same as the other books.

62
00:02:43,290 --> 00:02:44,510
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense then.

63
00:02:44,570 --> 00:02:46,790
Speaker 2: I thought we could maybe listen to it and then

64
00:02:46,850 --> 00:02:48,790
Speaker 2: talk about it before we get into the chapter summaries.

65
00:02:49,430 --> 00:02:51,250
Speaker 1: Yeah, sounds good to me. I'm keen. I haven't heard it.

66
00:02:51,669 --> 00:02:55,889
Speaker 4: The howling rain-lashed wind robbed every lingering ember of warmth

67
00:02:55,990 --> 00:02:59,570
Speaker 4: from Asriel. The scales of his black armor did nothing

68
00:02:59,630 --> 00:03:03,620
Speaker 4: against the lethal cold carried within those howls. Neither did

69
00:03:03,660 --> 00:03:07,740
Speaker 4: his siphons, their blue light unearthly through the downpour slicking

70
00:03:07,980 --> 00:03:12,540
Speaker 4: every stone in the Montessarian mountain pass. Nor his shadows.

71
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 4: barely hanging on to his half-frozen wings amid the gusting

72
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,790
Speaker 4: veils of rain. Five centuries of training kept him focused, though,

73
00:03:22,510 --> 00:03:25,850
Speaker 4: allowed him to silence the screaming in his head, the

74
00:03:25,870 --> 00:03:29,030
Speaker 4: body that demanded he find heat and find it fast.

75
00:03:30,110 --> 00:03:33,390
Speaker 4: He wasn't here to coddle himself. He had a task

76
00:03:33,490 --> 00:03:38,670
Speaker 4: to complete. Another hair-raising howl rent the night, so hollow

77
00:03:38,730 --> 00:03:41,660
Speaker 4: and sharp that as could have sworn even the rain shuddered.

78
00:03:42,790 --> 00:03:46,290
Speaker 4: He'd gone further than he should have. Recent Feyre's orders

79
00:03:46,330 --> 00:03:51,250
Speaker 4: had been specific. Observe, but do not engage. Yet how

80
00:03:51,310 --> 00:03:54,210
Speaker 4: could he not? How could he turn back when answers

81
00:03:54,250 --> 00:03:58,910
Speaker 4: were so close, even if their enemies were too? A

82
00:03:58,970 --> 00:04:02,590
Speaker 4: simple whisper had sent him here, a whisper overheard by

83
00:04:02,650 --> 00:04:05,830
Speaker 4: his foulest of spies, stationed for months now in the

84
00:04:05,870 --> 00:04:09,370
Speaker 4: mountains encircling Koschei, the Deathless's rotting castles.

85
00:04:10,010 --> 00:04:12,860
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's it. That's all of it. That's it.

86
00:04:12,870 --> 00:04:15,190
Speaker 2: So it's not too much, but you know what that's

87
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:15,860
Speaker 2: alluding to?

88
00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:16,770
Speaker 1: What?

89
00:04:17,210 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 2: Asriel POV.

90
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: Obviously, yeah.

91
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: I thought you would be more like, oh my God.

92
00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:26,540
Speaker 1: I mean, I am stoked with that. Yeah. But you

93
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: told me before we listened to it, before we started recording,

94
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,500
Speaker 1: you said that you're annoyed.

95
00:04:29,980 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to be caught off guard and go back

96
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: to some cool war with Rhys and Feyre. It obviously

97
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: was going to be an Asriel.

98
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: POV, but it was like, oh, okay, sure.

99
00:04:39,810 --> 00:04:40,450
Speaker 2: Yeah.

100
00:04:40,690 --> 00:04:40,930
Speaker 1: Yeah.

101
00:04:40,990 --> 00:04:42,450
Speaker 2: No, I think I'm for it.

102
00:04:42,550 --> 00:04:46,070
Speaker 1: I'm for it. Okay. I'm for it. I'm happy with it.

103
00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:49,030
Speaker 1: I think that it's going to be, I don't think

104
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,589
Speaker 1: it's going to be actually as much as real POV

105
00:04:51,790 --> 00:04:54,029
Speaker 1: as we think. I think that it is going to be,

106
00:04:58,210 --> 00:05:03,770
Speaker 1: my prediction is that it's going to be like sort

107
00:05:03,810 --> 00:05:06,100
Speaker 1: of throne of glass. Well, I guess queen of shadows

108
00:05:06,140 --> 00:05:08,740
Speaker 1: is a good, good example because, queen of shadows this

109
00:05:08,820 --> 00:05:12,330
Speaker 1: is from the pov of selena you'll get an aiden

110
00:05:12,370 --> 00:05:16,590
Speaker 1: chapter a dorian chapter you'll get a fucking elite chapter

111
00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:19,730
Speaker 1: you'll get a manon chapter like you'll get a kale

112
00:05:19,770 --> 00:05:23,390
Speaker 1: chapter you just get there's so many different characters you

113
00:05:23,410 --> 00:05:25,430
Speaker 1: reckon it's gonna go to that i think that it's

114
00:05:25,450 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: gonna it's gonna morph in well we've had the race

115
00:05:27,620 --> 00:05:30,660
Speaker 1: pov did we get cassian's well cassian i guess is

116
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:34,229
Speaker 1: sort of with nesters because it was really a Like

117
00:05:34,550 --> 00:05:36,630
Speaker 1: we call a quarter silver flames in Esther's book, but

118
00:05:36,650 --> 00:05:40,370
Speaker 1: it's like 50% Cassian. True. Let's be real.

119
00:05:41,670 --> 00:05:42,740
Speaker 2: And I don't know why.

120
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:43,330
Speaker 1: I don't know.

121
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 2: I'm still in the air.

122
00:05:44,620 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know.

123
00:05:45,540 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 2: I just wanted something more, even though it's probably just

124
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: a teaser. But apparently I was just reading the comments

125
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: and it came from like.

126
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:57,059
Speaker 1: The people who produce the audio book. So it's real. Okay. Nah, fair.

127
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: They must have got a permission. Imagine they didn't get

128
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,100
Speaker 1: permission to release that.

129
00:06:00,660 --> 00:06:02,740
Speaker 2: Just release it. I was thinking, you know how the

130
00:06:02,779 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 2: new iPhone's coming out the end of this week, actually,

131
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: as we're recording this. So, the day this episode comes out,

132
00:06:07,779 --> 00:06:12,950
Speaker 2: the new iPhone's out. I was like, imagine the iPhone release,

133
00:06:12,990 --> 00:06:17,270
Speaker 2: but instead it's book six release. And everyone goes and like,

134
00:06:17,290 --> 00:06:20,890
Speaker 2: I don't know, there's an early release and everyone gets

135
00:06:20,930 --> 00:06:23,190
Speaker 2: little teasers and there's chapters everywhere and you're like, oh

136
00:06:23,210 --> 00:06:24,730
Speaker 2: my God, that'd be so sick.

137
00:06:25,370 --> 00:06:28,730
Speaker 1: I reckon... if Apple somehow could have partnered with Sarah

138
00:06:28,750 --> 00:06:32,050
Speaker 1: J Maas and was like, cause the books are obviously done,

139
00:06:32,770 --> 00:06:34,950
Speaker 1: you know, both book six and seven are obviously done,

140
00:06:35,589 --> 00:06:38,630
Speaker 1: but if they could have somehow been like, yo, we

141
00:06:38,650 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: want to pay you X amount. And everyone that buys

142
00:06:44,460 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: a brand new iPhone within the first week of its release.

143
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 2: With the burgundy phone.

144
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,370
Speaker 1: Yeah. Burgundy. Everyone that buys the burgundy iPhone within, within

145
00:06:53,380 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: the week of its release, they get, the full book

146
00:06:57,620 --> 00:07:00,020
Speaker 1: six pre-downloaded. So they get to listen to it.

147
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,850
Speaker 2: That would be so sick. And then make it like

148
00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:07,029
Speaker 2: on Apple podcasts or whatever they do. It would have

149
00:07:07,050 --> 00:07:09,630
Speaker 2: been like, cause Apple has a books app too. Yeah.

150
00:07:09,650 --> 00:07:11,490
Speaker 1: So it would have been on Apple's, Apple has a

151
00:07:11,530 --> 00:07:13,110
Speaker 1: books app. So it would have been like on Apple

152
00:07:13,130 --> 00:07:14,890
Speaker 1: books or whatever. So that would have.

153
00:07:14,850 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 2: Been so sick. They would have missed opportunity.

154
00:07:18,500 --> 00:07:22,460
Speaker 1: I would have bought one. They would have sold so

155
00:07:22,500 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: many phones, bro. Not even funny.

156
00:07:24,660 --> 00:07:25,900
Speaker 2: Oh, that's so fun.

157
00:07:27,750 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: Anyway, baddies, we should get into the summary recap and, yeah,

158
00:07:33,700 --> 00:07:34,150
Speaker 1: get into it.

159
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 2: Everyone's glad we're back to our roots with you.

160
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:39,060
Speaker 1: I saw.

161
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,140
Speaker 2: Reading and letting the baddies relive through you.

162
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: I saw the comments and I just thought, fuck it, amazing.

163
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,420
Speaker 1: You know what? One thing I was thinking too was,

164
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: so we were doing fourth wing and that's sort of

165
00:07:55,100 --> 00:07:58,630
Speaker 1: when we were like getting over it. right and i

166
00:07:58,650 --> 00:08:01,730
Speaker 1: was still doing the chapter summaries like that and then

167
00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:04,210
Speaker 1: i think what we kind of thought was like oh

168
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:09,170
Speaker 1: we're just not liking this format but well i think

169
00:08:09,210 --> 00:08:13,300
Speaker 1: what it was is that we weren't really like into

170
00:08:13,380 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: fourth wing yeah if that makes sense and so i

171
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:20,300
Speaker 1: think we've always been sort of into this format but.

172
00:08:20,220 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 2: We just need a book that we really like That

173
00:08:23,140 --> 00:08:27,060
Speaker 2: makes sense. It felt more like work doing those episodes

174
00:08:27,100 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 2: than it did enjoyment, whereas these feel fun. Like that

175
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: 20 chapters we did last time, I can remember in

176
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:33,620
Speaker 2: fourth wing, if we did.

177
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,620
Speaker 1: That, we would have been like, fuck. Yeah.

178
00:08:35,940 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 2: Whereas that went so quick and it was so good.

179
00:08:37,940 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: And it's funny because I think fourth wing, personally, I

180
00:08:41,660 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: went and finished them, really, really liked them. I honestly do.

181
00:08:46,380 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: It's kind of giving like, honestly, it's giving sort of,

182
00:08:51,179 --> 00:08:55,830
Speaker 1: you know how, throne of glass has been really big

183
00:08:55,850 --> 00:08:57,550
Speaker 1: build up one big issue that they're going to come

184
00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:59,329
Speaker 1: to at book eight and then how i was talking

185
00:08:59,350 --> 00:09:02,130
Speaker 1: about akatar being like big issue fixed big issue fixed

186
00:09:02,150 --> 00:09:04,130
Speaker 1: they have to kind of create a new issue each

187
00:09:04,190 --> 00:09:07,729
Speaker 1: book yeah i feel like fourth wing is going to

188
00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:10,510
Speaker 1: be more like throne of glass where it's like big

189
00:09:10,570 --> 00:09:14,220
Speaker 1: issue but we don't fully fully understand the issue yet

190
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: if you if you can be bothered i recommend reading

191
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: it so then when the new books come out We

192
00:09:21,020 --> 00:09:22,780
Speaker 1: can do them book club because I think they'll be good.

193
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: When are they meant to be released? There wouldn't be

194
00:09:25,020 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: any time near Sarah J Maas, would there?

195
00:09:27,140 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Not for ages.

196
00:09:30,610 --> 00:09:33,010
Speaker 2: It's like Harry Styles and JB of the book world.

197
00:09:33,110 --> 00:09:34,330
Speaker 2: They don't release at the same time.

198
00:09:34,410 --> 00:09:36,250
Speaker 1: It's like Drake being like, oh, I want to release

199
00:09:36,270 --> 00:09:38,290
Speaker 1: an album. And then Taylor Swift goes, I'm releasing one. So,

200
00:09:38,330 --> 00:09:40,390
Speaker 1: he's like, well, I'll wait a year. You know what

201
00:09:40,450 --> 00:09:51,350
Speaker 1: I mean? Anyway. Okay, guys. Chapter 20. We're recapping every chapter,

202
00:09:51,590 --> 00:09:55,430
Speaker 1: thoughts and theories to every plot twist. We'll break it

203
00:09:55,490 --> 00:09:59,890
Speaker 1: down for you. all right so we got a cheeky

204
00:09:59,929 --> 00:10:04,540
Speaker 1: little elide and manon chapter i believe it was or

205
00:10:04,580 --> 00:10:07,780
Speaker 1: might have just been a manon chapter anyway so we

206
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 1: find out that i think is it pronounced elide are

207
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: you listening yeah it's elide elide yeah so elide is

208
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,099
Speaker 1: a child of terrison which we knew but but her

209
00:10:17,220 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: father was the lord of parent or parent and um

210
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:28,420
Speaker 1: he so when the king of ardalan or rift told

211
00:10:28,460 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: or whatever he was doing his shit her uncle elise

212
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:37,459
Speaker 1: uncle swore fealty to the king and fucking basically i

213
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: don't know somehow got it so her elise father was

214
00:10:40,540 --> 00:10:43,870
Speaker 1: like slaughtered and then the uncle stole the title so

215
00:10:43,900 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: he's lord of parents and elise actually the heir of

216
00:10:46,090 --> 00:10:47,709
Speaker 1: parents she should be the lord of parents because her

217
00:10:47,750 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: father died anyways And so, Madden's wigging out. She's kind

218
00:10:52,980 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 1: of finding out some stuff. And she realizes that Elid

219
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,790
Speaker 1: has no idea she's part witch. And then it's like,

220
00:11:02,510 --> 00:11:05,390
Speaker 1: you know, she kind of goes, I think she, I

221
00:11:05,410 --> 00:11:06,750
Speaker 1: don't know if she tells her right then or if

222
00:11:06,790 --> 00:11:08,970
Speaker 1: she waits or whatever. Anyway, Madden's kind of like, girl,

223
00:11:08,990 --> 00:11:10,970
Speaker 1: you got witch in you, whatever. So, Madden goes to

224
00:11:11,010 --> 00:11:13,990
Speaker 1: talk to one of her 13. And one of her 13,

225
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: she talks to the oldest one who is very smart

226
00:11:16,740 --> 00:11:19,430
Speaker 1: and spent time 12 years of her life, her, for

227
00:11:19,450 --> 00:11:21,790
Speaker 1: some reason, this witch's mom was like, you're going to

228
00:11:21,830 --> 00:11:24,210
Speaker 1: school with humans or something. I don't know. She went

229
00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:27,820
Speaker 1: to school in Terrace up in the North and they

230
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,859
Speaker 1: learned all about the Valk. So she's asking her about

231
00:11:30,900 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: the Valk. And she goes, so the Valk were here

232
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,900
Speaker 1: a long time ago. They basically just came in and

233
00:11:37,980 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: mated with the Fae. I don't know if the Fae

234
00:11:40,059 --> 00:11:41,620
Speaker 1: were wanted to mate with them or not, but like

235
00:11:41,780 --> 00:11:44,450
Speaker 1: they had offspring with the Fae and that is what

236
00:11:44,510 --> 00:11:49,420
Speaker 1: created the witches. And so, Her name's Ghislaine, this witch

237
00:11:49,460 --> 00:11:55,100
Speaker 1: that knows this stuff. She's kind of, you know, against

238
00:11:55,179 --> 00:11:58,300
Speaker 1: the whole Vowg thing. And she puts two and two together.

239
00:11:58,540 --> 00:12:00,810
Speaker 1: She goes, oh, they're here, aren't they? And Madden's kind

240
00:12:00,830 --> 00:12:02,229
Speaker 1: of like, yeah, I don't know. I'll leave that up

241
00:12:02,250 --> 00:12:04,690
Speaker 1: to your imagination type shit because she's, for some reason,

242
00:12:04,730 --> 00:12:08,969
Speaker 1: not allowed to say anything. But King Brannan, which is

243
00:12:08,990 --> 00:12:12,380
Speaker 1: the one that's buried underneath the castle, who actually found

244
00:12:12,410 --> 00:12:15,309
Speaker 1: the word keys and hid them, He's the one that

245
00:12:15,350 --> 00:12:17,589
Speaker 1: gave the witches the Western Wastes. They were a new

246
00:12:17,650 --> 00:12:19,030
Speaker 1: breed of being.

247
00:12:19,710 --> 00:12:21,410
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't have anywhere. And then he gave them

248
00:12:21,450 --> 00:12:24,970
Speaker 2: like the worst place there was just to have something.

249
00:12:25,050 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: But they all really want it back. Yeah, yeah. It's

250
00:12:27,900 --> 00:12:30,020
Speaker 1: their home. The witches should just go fuck shit up,

251
00:12:30,059 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: I reckon, take everything anyway. And then they're having some

252
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: dinner and one of the yellow legs, witches or whatever,

253
00:12:37,980 --> 00:12:40,070
Speaker 1: comes up to Manon and is like, I want to

254
00:12:40,110 --> 00:12:43,810
Speaker 1: volunteer to be the bearer of the Valkchild.

255
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 2: Crazy. For the VALG, are you like... I'm picturing like

256
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,620
Speaker 2: shadow people in my head.

257
00:12:53,580 --> 00:12:55,710
Speaker 1: What I picture for the VALG for some reason is

258
00:12:55,750 --> 00:13:01,370
Speaker 1: just like someone... Well, so the VALG are obviously possessing people. Yeah.

259
00:13:01,390 --> 00:13:03,630
Speaker 1: But if I was to picture a VALG, I assume

260
00:13:03,670 --> 00:13:07,309
Speaker 1: they just can't be in this world yet.

261
00:13:07,350 --> 00:13:09,470
Speaker 2: Has there been a description of like their look at all?

262
00:13:09,490 --> 00:13:13,810
Speaker 1: There hasn't. I don't think so. But I'm picturing like

263
00:13:14,130 --> 00:13:19,540
Speaker 1: literally just... human but imagine human that just looks like

264
00:13:19,570 --> 00:13:22,250
Speaker 1: a black portal into the abyss.

265
00:13:22,470 --> 00:13:24,870
Speaker 2: That's basically i'm thinking like yeah the shape of a

266
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:27,970
Speaker 2: human but then they're just like shadowy form yeah and

267
00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:28,830
Speaker 2: they move around.

268
00:13:28,610 --> 00:13:31,589
Speaker 1: Like that i think that's what i'm thinking too honestly

269
00:13:31,750 --> 00:13:36,220
Speaker 1: chapter 21 we've got a dorian chapter yeah a boy

270
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: he's like pretty much he's like yeah i'm i think

271
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:48,580
Speaker 1: he's come to terms with the And he talks about trying. So,

272
00:13:48,620 --> 00:13:50,860
Speaker 1: when Selene was about to kill him and she said,

273
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,020
Speaker 1: show me a sign and I'll leave, brother. If he

274
00:13:55,059 --> 00:13:57,420
Speaker 1: talks about that and he doesn't remember her name, he

275
00:13:57,460 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: says like, I'm thinking about that. I forget her name.

276
00:14:00,820 --> 00:14:04,580
Speaker 1: And then he's like, he hates her for not killing him.

277
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,739
Speaker 2: He just wants to die. It must be bad in there, eh?

278
00:14:07,100 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: Bro. Bro.

279
00:14:09,590 --> 00:14:12,470
Speaker 2: Fucking, like, imagine. You got to feel a bit bad

280
00:14:12,510 --> 00:14:13,309
Speaker 2: for Dorian, don't you?

281
00:14:13,470 --> 00:14:17,410
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I like Dorian now. Yeah, I know.

282
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:18,459
Speaker 1: Big Dorian guy now.

283
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,460
Speaker 2: He just wants to die now too because he knows

284
00:14:20,500 --> 00:14:22,420
Speaker 2: what's right and he's like, I can't do anything.

285
00:14:22,460 --> 00:14:26,420
Speaker 1: It's just helpless. The woman he loves turns out to

286
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,980
Speaker 1: be a rebel and is feeding the information they talk

287
00:14:30,020 --> 00:14:33,250
Speaker 1: about that he thinks is in private out to her contacts, right?

288
00:14:33,310 --> 00:14:36,730
Speaker 1: He finds that out and he's like, obviously still loves

289
00:14:36,770 --> 00:14:39,210
Speaker 1: her and then literally a minute later watches her head

290
00:14:39,250 --> 00:14:46,060
Speaker 1: get chopped off. And then, and then, He shows his

291
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: father his magic to save his friend that he currently hates.

292
00:14:51,340 --> 00:14:54,220
Speaker 1: And then his father fucks him up and puts a

293
00:14:54,260 --> 00:14:56,460
Speaker 1: collar on him. Yeah, you get a collar. And now

294
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: he's possessed. Like, you can't, you have to feel bad

295
00:15:00,020 --> 00:15:07,180
Speaker 1: for that guy. Chapter 22. Kael is, he believes Dorian's

296
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,020
Speaker 1: still in there, basically. He thinks Dorian's still in there.

297
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,540
Speaker 1: He hates Selene for trying to kill him. And he

298
00:15:14,620 --> 00:15:16,340
Speaker 1: will not accept the fact that it would have been

299
00:15:16,380 --> 00:15:22,140
Speaker 1: mercy to Dorian. Here's the thing, right? I think I'm

300
00:15:22,180 --> 00:15:25,030
Speaker 1: annoyed that Kael's so hell-bent on this, like, Dorian's in there,

301
00:15:25,050 --> 00:15:30,490
Speaker 1: Dorian's in there type shit. Because, let me, like, so

302
00:15:30,550 --> 00:15:34,570
Speaker 1: Dorian wants to die. That's what he wants. He wants

303
00:15:34,790 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 1: to die. And obviously, because he is not dead yet,

304
00:15:39,420 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: he's going to be saved. Yeah. And we're going to

305
00:15:42,420 --> 00:15:45,290
Speaker 1: have a Dorian. A lot of Dorian left in the series, right?

306
00:15:45,310 --> 00:15:47,390
Speaker 1: And he's going to obviously become king after they kill

307
00:15:47,410 --> 00:15:56,210
Speaker 1: his dad. But it annoys me, like, if you were

308
00:15:56,250 --> 00:16:02,610
Speaker 1: possessed by a demon. You'd let me die. And I knew,

309
00:16:02,630 --> 00:16:06,030
Speaker 1: and I was like in the same situation as Selena,

310
00:16:06,050 --> 00:16:09,550
Speaker 1: where I had faced three of said demons, right?

311
00:16:09,580 --> 00:16:09,650
Speaker 2: Yeah.

312
00:16:11,070 --> 00:16:13,900
Speaker 1: And I also faced a commander who was wearing a

313
00:16:13,930 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: collar and was possessed by a demon. You're a doggie.

314
00:16:17,380 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: And then when I kill this guy, this commander, he's

315
00:16:21,100 --> 00:16:24,380
Speaker 1: literally looking at me like, thank you. He doesn't even

316
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: want to be saved. I would kill you. I would

317
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: do you a favor and kill you because you want

318
00:16:30,330 --> 00:16:30,750
Speaker 1: to die.

319
00:16:31,530 --> 00:16:33,230
Speaker 2: You shouldn't be able to live life without me.

320
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:37,500
Speaker 1: Oh, it wouldn't be easy. Oh, yeah. Here we go.

321
00:16:37,890 --> 00:16:39,900
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be easy, bro, but I would be doing

322
00:16:39,940 --> 00:16:41,180
Speaker 1: you the biggest favor ever.

323
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,540
Speaker 2: You'd probably be like, man, that felt good. Oddy was

324
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,380
Speaker 2: doing bad. Because it wouldn't feel good.

325
00:16:50,340 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: It would not feel good at all.

326
00:16:51,860 --> 00:16:53,470
Speaker 2: I did that guy a favor.

327
00:16:53,490 --> 00:16:55,570
Speaker 1: Let's say this. Let's say this.

328
00:16:56,170 --> 00:17:01,350
Speaker 2: I risk the kingdom, right, trying to save you.

329
00:17:01,750 --> 00:17:05,750
Speaker 1: Hmm. Let's just say I save you. You're going to

330
00:17:05,790 --> 00:17:10,070
Speaker 1: be so fucked up in the head for the rest

331
00:17:10,109 --> 00:17:13,550
Speaker 1: of your life that you're probably going to kill yourself anyway. Like,

332
00:17:13,590 --> 00:17:15,189
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying?

333
00:17:15,609 --> 00:17:17,149
Speaker 2: But that's a decision for me to make.

334
00:17:17,990 --> 00:17:19,950
Speaker 1: Not while you're possessed by a demon. It's a decision

335
00:17:19,970 --> 00:17:20,530
Speaker 1: for me to make.

336
00:17:21,650 --> 00:17:23,830
Speaker 2: But if you find out a way to heal me,

337
00:17:23,869 --> 00:17:25,609
Speaker 2: then if I want to kill myself, I can kill myself.

338
00:17:28,250 --> 00:17:32,190
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess. I see your point. I guess

339
00:17:32,210 --> 00:17:35,390
Speaker 2: you're making the decision for me. It's like Dorian's no

340
00:17:35,430 --> 00:17:36,290
Speaker 2: longer in there.

341
00:17:37,050 --> 00:17:39,830
Speaker 1: Yeah. But here's the thing. He is.

342
00:17:40,470 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 2: He is because he tried to show a sign, but

343
00:17:43,820 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 2: he just didn't have control to do so.

344
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: So he is in there. So I guess the point

345
00:17:48,140 --> 00:17:50,620
Speaker 1: of this actually is the fact that Cale is sort

346
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,500
Speaker 1: of correct because Dorian is in there. He just doesn't

347
00:17:55,740 --> 00:17:59,419
Speaker 1: really remember anything. And when he comes out, do you

348
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,419
Speaker 1: think he's got to remember anything at all or will

349
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,109
Speaker 1: it all come back to him?

350
00:18:02,460 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 2: I reckon Kale will kiss Dorian and then he'll bring him.

351
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: Out. You think a kiss from Kale is going to

352
00:18:10,460 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: ring Dorian out? Yeah. You're off chops, bro. That's crazy. Hey,

353
00:18:16,580 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 1: it could happen. I'm sure stranger things have happened. I

354
00:18:20,220 --> 00:18:22,899
Speaker 1: just don't think this is giving like, what's the Sleeping

355
00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:24,090
Speaker 1: Beauty one where it's like.

356
00:18:24,090 --> 00:18:27,690
Speaker 2: A kiss wakes her up? Just know if I'm ever possessed, mate,

357
00:18:28,250 --> 00:18:29,229
Speaker 2: kiss my elf.

358
00:18:29,510 --> 00:18:32,190
Speaker 1: I mean i hey i'll try all the things i

359
00:18:32,190 --> 00:18:33,590
Speaker 1: don't know if a demon would let me kiss him

360
00:18:33,650 --> 00:18:37,420
Speaker 1: but to get close enough probably suck my soul out

361
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:44,180
Speaker 1: all right chapter 23 and 24 we get so adion

362
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: has been all sorts of injured but him and selena

363
00:18:51,300 --> 00:18:54,460
Speaker 1: they have a proper reunion yeah where she's like chilling

364
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: there and he wakes up and then they talk and

365
00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,810
Speaker 1: he's crying she's crying type thing right and i for

366
00:19:00,869 --> 00:19:03,510
Speaker 1: some reason so i can picture selena but when i

367
00:19:03,609 --> 00:19:06,989
Speaker 1: picture him like they're supposed to look like twins he's

368
00:19:07,010 --> 00:19:08,969
Speaker 1: obviously a lot bigger he's just a male version but

369
00:19:09,270 --> 00:19:12,129
Speaker 1: they're supposed to look like literal twins um but i'm

370
00:19:12,170 --> 00:19:13,050
Speaker 1: struggling to picture.

371
00:19:12,830 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 2: Him yeah i'm not picturing him looking like so similar

372
00:19:18,180 --> 00:19:21,430
Speaker 2: i especially because like the gender but I guess just

373
00:19:21,470 --> 00:19:24,770
Speaker 2: because of how much they resonated with each other's backgrounds

374
00:19:24,810 --> 00:19:27,250
Speaker 2: and how they felt made me be able to feel

375
00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:27,810
Speaker 2: the connection.

376
00:19:28,109 --> 00:19:32,620
Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought it was really cool how he also

377
00:19:32,660 --> 00:19:37,780
Speaker 1: has the inner dialogue of... He talks about always being

378
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:43,150
Speaker 1: jealous of his men, the Bane. His men are called

379
00:19:43,170 --> 00:19:46,150
Speaker 1: the Bane. So they'll be talking and they talk about

380
00:19:46,190 --> 00:19:49,010
Speaker 1: their families and stuff at home. And he was always

381
00:19:49,030 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 1: very jealous that he didn't have... that yeah but um

382
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,820
Speaker 1: all that feeling he feels at home with selena and

383
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: he has family true family again which is sick i

384
00:19:59,740 --> 00:20:03,500
Speaker 1: thought that was a cool feeling very heartwarming and so

385
00:20:03,540 --> 00:20:06,970
Speaker 1: the pits well the that's the new vaults. So she's,

386
00:20:07,010 --> 00:20:08,629
Speaker 1: she's fucked the vaults up, but now there's a new

387
00:20:08,670 --> 00:20:13,220
Speaker 1: place open already called the pits. Basically. And, um, she

388
00:20:13,260 --> 00:20:17,780
Speaker 1: goes there with Kale and Nezrin and there's a fighting pit.

389
00:20:17,820 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: Of course it's called the pits. So Arabin's there and

390
00:20:21,140 --> 00:20:23,780
Speaker 1: these pits have opened up and Arabin and a bunch

391
00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:27,500
Speaker 1: of other people are wanting to pay in and gain control.

392
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: Cause it's one of the ways they like get the

393
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,199
Speaker 1: information fed to them and shit. Right. And so the

394
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,700
Speaker 1: new owners of the pits are kind of like umming

395
00:20:32,740 --> 00:20:34,900
Speaker 1: and ahhing about who to take money from. And so,

396
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: There's also another thing I forgot to mention was that

397
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 1: all of the Valg disappeared basically. Like the nests disappeared

398
00:20:45,900 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: where they were taking the humans and Kayle can't find

399
00:20:47,780 --> 00:20:52,620
Speaker 1: them again. And so she brought Kayle because there's Valg

400
00:20:53,859 --> 00:20:57,810
Speaker 1: troops in the crowd and Erebin must have known this

401
00:20:58,050 --> 00:21:00,390
Speaker 1: and he was doing Kayle a favor of being like, well,

402
00:21:00,410 --> 00:21:05,030
Speaker 1: you can track them now. So she is at the

403
00:21:05,070 --> 00:21:08,590
Speaker 1: pits and She also was there because she had to

404
00:21:08,630 --> 00:21:10,810
Speaker 1: do something for Erebon. I can't remember. I don't know

405
00:21:10,850 --> 00:21:13,110
Speaker 1: why she had to do this. Anyway, so Erebon's kind

406
00:21:13,130 --> 00:21:14,750
Speaker 1: of like, I need you to fight one of the Valg.

407
00:21:15,369 --> 00:21:17,330
Speaker 1: I need you to get in there, fight. And I'm

408
00:21:17,369 --> 00:21:19,770
Speaker 1: pretty sure it was, oh, the reason was I think

409
00:21:20,530 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: she is still under the guise of like working for Erebon.

410
00:21:25,230 --> 00:21:26,889
Speaker 1: I think Erebon says that to the owners, like the

411
00:21:26,930 --> 00:21:32,459
Speaker 1: pit boss. And so she goes in. She challenges the

412
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 1: Valg commander of all people. He jumps down. He's like,

413
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: fuck off. I'm going to kill you, bitch. And then

414
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,460
Speaker 1: she's like, yeah, yeah, right. Yeah. And so I think

415
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,939
Speaker 1: because as it looks like she works for Arab and

416
00:21:42,420 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: the pit boss sees that she like fucks up this commander,

417
00:21:45,780 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 1: even though it's a valve, she like fully takes it.

418
00:21:47,900 --> 00:21:50,620
Speaker 1: Like she lets it go. They talk about the fight being,

419
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,620
Speaker 1: it's from chaos POV. He talks about the fight being

420
00:21:52,660 --> 00:21:56,020
Speaker 1: kind of even sort of right. And Selena just is like,

421
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,850
Speaker 1: he's like, I don't know who trained her or like

422
00:21:57,900 --> 00:22:00,310
Speaker 1: that Rowan guy training her. Fuck me dead. She's a

423
00:22:00,330 --> 00:22:03,109
Speaker 1: beast now. And then apparently Arab and gives her a

424
00:22:03,130 --> 00:22:05,419
Speaker 1: bit of a nod and he goes off. She was

425
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: letting it go on. And then she just like full

426
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,320
Speaker 1: on breaks this thing's neck and doesn't give a shit.

427
00:22:10,940 --> 00:22:15,739
Speaker 1: And so that I think now Erevin will buy in

428
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,330
Speaker 1: and like can offer protection and also be like, yeah, look,

429
00:22:18,350 --> 00:22:22,189
Speaker 1: we're beasts. So she kills it. But before the commander dies,

430
00:22:22,250 --> 00:22:24,850
Speaker 1: he's like, oh, I can feel the magic in your veins.

431
00:22:25,310 --> 00:22:27,750
Speaker 1: I should just take you straight to Morath or Morath

432
00:22:27,770 --> 00:22:30,429
Speaker 1: or whatever. And so now she knows where all the

433
00:22:30,470 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: people get taken to be turned into soldiers. Yeah. Information. So,

434
00:22:38,740 --> 00:22:41,109
Speaker 1: she comes out of the pit and she kills this thing.

435
00:22:41,210 --> 00:22:42,990
Speaker 1: Arabin's like, hey, what about our deal? I told you

436
00:22:43,030 --> 00:22:44,389
Speaker 1: I want a live one so I can question this

437
00:22:44,410 --> 00:22:46,370
Speaker 1: fucking thing. And she's like, sorry, bloodlust got the better

438
00:22:46,410 --> 00:22:52,090
Speaker 1: of me. And then for some reason, he is like, oh,

439
00:22:52,130 --> 00:22:53,990
Speaker 1: I have a gift for you. Do you want to

440
00:22:54,010 --> 00:22:57,669
Speaker 1: know where we buried Sam? And I was like, what?

441
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 2: Mind games, eh?

442
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,379
Speaker 1: Anyway, she goes, what's the price? He goes, can't it

443
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,620
Speaker 1: be a gift? And she goes, fuck sakes, whatever, bro.

444
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: Where is he? And then he was buried somewhere on

445
00:23:08,300 --> 00:23:12,460
Speaker 1: the outskirts of town, I think. But, okay, one thing

446
00:23:12,540 --> 00:23:17,100
Speaker 1: I think... So, obviously, I don't know if you're on

447
00:23:17,140 --> 00:23:18,900
Speaker 1: board with this yet, she's going to end up being

448
00:23:18,940 --> 00:23:24,730
Speaker 1: with Rowan, right? Agreed. I think that, for some reason,

449
00:23:25,750 --> 00:23:29,129
Speaker 1: I don't ship them together the same way that I ship, say,

450
00:23:29,230 --> 00:23:33,830
Speaker 1: Feyre and Rhys, or Cassian and Nestor, or in Crescent City,

451
00:23:33,950 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: Bryce and... I don't ship them together the same way

452
00:23:38,660 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: because it was like, I think, you know, in the

453
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:46,620
Speaker 1: first two books, she falls in love with Kale, right? Well,

454
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: first of all, she like fucking makes out and sort

455
00:23:48,940 --> 00:23:51,379
Speaker 1: of falls in love with Dorian. And then she falls

456
00:23:51,460 --> 00:23:55,490
Speaker 1: actually in love quotes with Kale. And then we read

457
00:23:55,950 --> 00:23:59,429
Speaker 1: Assassin's Blade where she falls in love with Sam. And now,

458
00:23:59,730 --> 00:24:01,669
Speaker 1: and then we read Heir of Fire where she's clearly

459
00:24:01,710 --> 00:24:04,889
Speaker 1: starting to fall in love with Rowan. Like, to me,

460
00:24:04,930 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: it's like, we're four books and there's four different dudes. True.

461
00:24:09,619 --> 00:24:11,020
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?

462
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,460
Speaker 2: To me, I can't ship them now.

463
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: I can't ship them.

464
00:24:14,500 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 2: Is that a depiction of young love?

465
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,260
Speaker 1: I don't know, bro. It's just like, really? Because, like,

466
00:24:21,540 --> 00:24:22,500
Speaker 1: I agree with you, too.

467
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,859
Speaker 2: I also, like, you know, I know how she was

468
00:24:24,900 --> 00:24:27,260
Speaker 2: just playing in that fight, but they had a reference to, like,

469
00:24:27,740 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 2: this Rowan guy was trying to know if she's a

470
00:24:29,220 --> 00:24:29,660
Speaker 2: weapon now.

471
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

472
00:24:30,300 --> 00:24:32,340
Speaker 2: Like, she was the most notorious assassin of all time.

473
00:24:32,740 --> 00:24:32,940
Speaker 1: Yeah.

474
00:24:33,030 --> 00:24:35,770
Speaker 2: Like, why are they... Saying like, oh, she's such a

475
00:24:35,810 --> 00:24:37,389
Speaker 2: beast now because this man's trained her.

476
00:24:38,060 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: Oh, there's a reason. We find out. Should we be

477
00:24:40,580 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: fair though? Because Kayle has seen the fight.

478
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,719
Speaker 2: Do you mean because we find out who Rowan is?

479
00:24:44,859 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: Is that the reason? Well, I think we don't, at

480
00:24:47,020 --> 00:24:49,659
Speaker 1: this point in the book, we don't find out exactly who,

481
00:24:49,700 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: like we know who Rowan is, but we don't find

482
00:24:51,140 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: out that he is who he is, right? And so

483
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,100
Speaker 1: we find out in a few chapters, but at this

484
00:24:55,140 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 1: point in time, we know that Kayle has seen her

485
00:24:57,740 --> 00:25:00,830
Speaker 1: fight plenty of times. Yeah. And he's watching her again

486
00:25:00,890 --> 00:25:02,570
Speaker 1: and now she's even better. So he's like, who the

487
00:25:02,590 --> 00:25:05,750
Speaker 1: fuck is this Rowan guy? Right, right, right.

488
00:25:05,850 --> 00:25:07,669
Speaker 2: And the reason is because of Roland's background.

489
00:25:07,950 --> 00:25:10,609
Speaker 1: Pretty much, yeah. And I guess it makes sense that

490
00:25:10,630 --> 00:25:13,610
Speaker 1: he's a lot better because he's fucking 300, 400 years

491
00:25:13,690 --> 00:25:15,629
Speaker 1: old and she's like 20.

492
00:25:15,630 --> 00:25:18,970
Speaker 2: Yeah, what's with the predator love in these books, eh? Yo,

493
00:25:18,990 --> 00:25:24,070
Speaker 2: there's something about all these fucking immortal beings falling in

494
00:25:24,109 --> 00:25:28,050
Speaker 2: love with a mortal 20-year-old woman.

495
00:25:28,630 --> 00:25:31,230
Speaker 1: It's like when you really say it out loud, it

496
00:25:31,250 --> 00:25:36,550
Speaker 1: sounds so, so sus. But maybe it's going to show

497
00:25:36,570 --> 00:25:41,150
Speaker 1: that it took these immortal beings, you know, anywhere from

498
00:25:41,210 --> 00:25:45,210
Speaker 1: like 500 to 1,000 years to get to.

499
00:25:45,150 --> 00:25:48,090
Speaker 2: The emotional maturity as a 20-year-old woman.

500
00:25:49,170 --> 00:25:50,870
Speaker 1: Legit. Oh, I'll tell you what.

501
00:25:51,030 --> 00:25:54,070
Speaker 2: You know how last episode I was struggling to wrap

502
00:25:54,109 --> 00:25:57,050
Speaker 2: my head around the length of each book? And I

503
00:25:57,090 --> 00:26:00,730
Speaker 2: thought Erofire was like two years and you said it

504
00:26:00,750 --> 00:26:03,790
Speaker 2: was about two months. The whole series, about he commented,

505
00:26:03,830 --> 00:26:05,490
Speaker 2: is a year or a year and a half.

506
00:26:05,850 --> 00:26:09,170
Speaker 1: I know. It's not long, eh? What? I know.

507
00:26:09,230 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 2: That's crazy.

508
00:26:10,300 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy, sir.

509
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,980
Speaker 2: The amount of growth, that makes the love bit even harder.

510
00:26:15,430 --> 00:26:18,980
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, bro. She falls in love with fucking...

511
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,020
Speaker 1: Because even if you think about it.

512
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,500
Speaker 2: Because if you said it was like five or ten years,

513
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 2: I'd be like, oh yeah, fair enough.

514
00:26:23,300 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: Go back to the year she fell in love with Sam, right?

515
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:26,909
Speaker 1: That was the year leading up to.

516
00:26:26,980 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 2: She should still be grieving it.

517
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,660
Speaker 1: That was the year leading up to going to Endovia,

518
00:26:31,700 --> 00:26:34,500
Speaker 1: salt mines, right? And then she's in Endovia for a

519
00:26:34,540 --> 00:26:37,219
Speaker 1: year and then she gets out, right? And basically the

520
00:26:37,260 --> 00:26:39,939
Speaker 1: series starts from when she gets out of Endovia. So

521
00:26:39,980 --> 00:26:43,970
Speaker 1: if you go basically... from the start of Throne of

522
00:26:43,990 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 1: Glass to the end of Kingdom of Ash is a

523
00:26:45,940 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: year and a bit or whatever, right? Just add two

524
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:50,820
Speaker 1: more years to the front of that. So it's like,

525
00:26:50,900 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 1: you know, three years and a bit. Fucking falls in

526
00:26:53,140 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: love with four dudes in three years. Like, I guess

527
00:26:56,060 --> 00:26:59,220
Speaker 1: it's not crazy, but also it's just for some reason

528
00:26:59,300 --> 00:27:00,859
Speaker 1: wigs me out and that's why I can't ship her

529
00:27:00,900 --> 00:27:04,580
Speaker 1: and Rowan. True. Yeah, you know, it's like, are you

530
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,780
Speaker 1: just going to fucking fall in love with someone else, bro?

531
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,420
Speaker 2: Like, I don't know.

532
00:27:09,260 --> 00:27:12,970
Speaker 1: You know, Rowan, bro. Rowan, he has his mate that dies.

533
00:27:13,430 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 1: And then he, it was like a hundred years ago

534
00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 1: that she dies or something like that. Maybe it was

535
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,959
Speaker 1: 200 years ago that he dies. And the next person

536
00:27:19,980 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 1: he's sort of falling in love with is Selina. True.

537
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:29,290
Speaker 1: Like this guy mourned. He mourned for, he spent 10 years.

538
00:27:29,310 --> 00:27:31,869
Speaker 1: I don't, was it 10 years? He spent like 10

539
00:27:31,869 --> 00:27:35,189
Speaker 1: years or something in just the forest, just being a menace,

540
00:27:35,450 --> 00:27:37,689
Speaker 1: like not talking to anyone. And then that's when his

541
00:27:37,730 --> 00:27:40,550
Speaker 1: cater came and got him. Or Queen Maeve goes like,

542
00:27:40,609 --> 00:27:42,369
Speaker 1: right here, come on, mate. Like, let's fucking go. It's

543
00:27:42,410 --> 00:27:44,670
Speaker 1: been 10 years. Stop carrying on, mate. Let's do some work.

544
00:27:45,109 --> 00:27:47,389
Speaker 2: Did you have the prediction that Rowan and Selana were mated?

545
00:27:47,850 --> 00:27:51,530
Speaker 1: Yeah. You did, eh? Yeah. And the reason, because it's

546
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:53,770
Speaker 1: because they're soul bonded and they're Carrara now.

547
00:27:53,790 --> 00:27:57,770
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you too now. Like completely.

548
00:27:58,010 --> 00:28:04,450
Speaker 1: Definitely mated. Right. So chapter 25, Asteryn, she is obviously

549
00:28:04,490 --> 00:28:07,940
Speaker 1: the noun number three to Manon. She goes to talk

550
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: to a lead. And she's like, she goes down to

551
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,260
Speaker 1: help her wash dishes and Elide's like stressing. And we

552
00:28:15,300 --> 00:28:17,140
Speaker 1: know that Elide's putting on this big act of like,

553
00:28:17,180 --> 00:28:21,390
Speaker 1: you know, being a fucking stammering little, I guess, wimp.

554
00:28:22,170 --> 00:28:24,169
Speaker 1: She's putting on this act and all the witches can

555
00:28:24,190 --> 00:28:27,669
Speaker 1: see through it. Keep in mind, Elide is planning to

556
00:28:27,730 --> 00:28:30,220
Speaker 1: escape Morath. She's going to escape on one of the

557
00:28:30,260 --> 00:28:33,699
Speaker 1: supply carts and she's really, really wants to escape. And

558
00:28:33,740 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: so Astrid comes down, she's talking to her and she goes,

559
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: we know you're a witch brah. And, and the actual

560
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: genuine shock on Elise face, as in like, what's no,

561
00:28:44,180 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm not makes the witches believe, Oh, she doesn't actually

562
00:28:47,140 --> 00:28:53,140
Speaker 1: know bro. So yeah. And that's when they actually tell her. So, um,

563
00:28:53,180 --> 00:28:57,740
Speaker 1: they go up, so she leaves and she's really worried that, um,

564
00:28:58,980 --> 00:29:01,229
Speaker 1: if her uncle knows about her witch blood, he's going

565
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:05,350
Speaker 1: to use her as the, as the valve delivery system

566
00:29:05,390 --> 00:29:07,020
Speaker 1: for the baby. I don't really know what they call it.

567
00:29:07,570 --> 00:29:08,010
Speaker 2: The vessel.

568
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,910
Speaker 1: The vessel, yes. And so she goes up, for some reason,

569
00:29:11,950 --> 00:29:15,050
Speaker 1: she goes up to Manon's room and starts to steal

570
00:29:15,110 --> 00:29:18,610
Speaker 1: coins to get out of it. It's like, you dumb fuck.

571
00:29:19,430 --> 00:29:22,510
Speaker 1: Great idea. Manon comes in, she's like, doing bra.

572
00:29:23,430 --> 00:29:26,860
Speaker 2: She's like, doing. Would have picked anyone else.

573
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:36,550
Speaker 1: Anyway, she, Manon goes to take, what was she? I

574
00:29:36,570 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: think she just like goes to take fucking A lead

575
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 1: to her room. She goes, let me take you to

576
00:29:41,420 --> 00:29:45,250
Speaker 1: your room. And her uncle, a lead's uncle is there

577
00:29:45,310 --> 00:29:47,830
Speaker 1: just being a menace. And so then they go into

578
00:29:47,870 --> 00:29:49,830
Speaker 1: a lead's room. Manon tells the uncle to fuck off

579
00:29:50,490 --> 00:29:52,210
Speaker 1: and she goes into the room and she goes, all right,

580
00:29:53,290 --> 00:29:55,390
Speaker 1: your blood can either run blue like a witch or

581
00:29:55,430 --> 00:29:57,270
Speaker 1: red like a human. If it's blue like a witch,

582
00:29:57,290 --> 00:29:59,560
Speaker 1: you're under my protection by law. And if it's red

583
00:29:59,580 --> 00:30:01,300
Speaker 1: like a human, I honestly don't care. And I'm probably

584
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,020
Speaker 1: going to be quite entertained what they do to you.

585
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 1: So choose.

586
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,500
Speaker 2: Savage.

587
00:30:05,660 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: She's like, choose bro. And I was like, that's actually hectic.

588
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,140
Speaker 1: I like Madden. I think she's a beast. Yeah, this

589
00:30:11,180 --> 00:30:14,910
Speaker 1: is cool. And so then she, Elide really thinks about

590
00:30:14,930 --> 00:30:18,050
Speaker 1: it and she goes, okay, I choose blue. And Madden's like,

591
00:30:18,540 --> 00:30:21,739
Speaker 1: Madden's like, good choice. Great choice. Because I also think

592
00:30:21,860 --> 00:30:24,380
Speaker 1: good choice. Because obviously what's going to happen is they're

593
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: going to fix her weird ass ankle. They're going to

594
00:30:26,540 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: take her shackles off. They're going to be under her protection.

595
00:30:28,340 --> 00:30:30,100
Speaker 1: It's going to go from... You're going to be... You're

596
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,660
Speaker 1: not going to be... So Madden's going to have... Instead

597
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,380
Speaker 1: of a 13, she's going to have a 14. A

598
00:30:35,420 --> 00:30:37,850
Speaker 1: lead's going to be her little fucking disciple apprentice type shit.

599
00:30:37,870 --> 00:30:40,250
Speaker 1: She's going to be a mad dog. I'm keen as.

600
00:30:40,650 --> 00:30:42,450
Speaker 1: And she's a witchling still because she's only fucking 18.

601
00:30:42,450 --> 00:30:50,150
Speaker 1: Chapter 26. So Adion, he... He talks about taking the

602
00:30:50,190 --> 00:30:54,730
Speaker 1: blood oath for Selina. And in Tarasin, all these years,

603
00:30:55,230 --> 00:30:57,930
Speaker 1: every single, all the royals, whoever was in charge, whether

604
00:30:57,970 --> 00:31:00,350
Speaker 1: it be a monarch or a patriarch, each one of

605
00:31:00,390 --> 00:31:02,790
Speaker 1: them has only taken one blood oath from a commander.

606
00:31:03,370 --> 00:31:06,209
Speaker 1: And so that was like, they just were, you know,

607
00:31:06,890 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: fucking blood oath type shit. Whereas Queen Maeve has like

608
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: six blood oaths from all the Cater. And so he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

609
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:15,620
Speaker 1: I'm going to fucking do that blood oath. And they

610
00:31:15,660 --> 00:31:17,260
Speaker 1: talk about it. And Selina's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you

611
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:18,940
Speaker 1: can do it. You can do it. Little does he

612
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: know that Rowan's already taken the blood oath. And she

613
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,219
Speaker 1: kind of is like, I can't tell him right now.

614
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 1: I just can't tell him yet. I can't do it.

615
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,670
Speaker 1: Seems like a bit of a cock off for the man, eh?

616
00:31:30,210 --> 00:31:31,209
Speaker 1: Oh my God, bro.

617
00:31:31,870 --> 00:31:35,190
Speaker 2: Like, I'll take a blood oath for you. I'll give

618
00:31:35,210 --> 00:31:35,730
Speaker 2: you my life.

619
00:31:36,950 --> 00:31:42,410
Speaker 1: Like, for fuck's sakes. I don't even know what, it

620
00:31:42,430 --> 00:31:45,850
Speaker 1: just is so depicting of, I guess, you know, his

621
00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:50,950
Speaker 1: whole purpose is protection. Yeah. Be a man. Protection. Oh,

622
00:31:51,050 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: my sword. I live and die by my sword for you.

623
00:31:53,380 --> 00:31:56,860
Speaker 1: I live for you. Fuck's sakes, bro. It annoys me too.

624
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,300
Speaker 2: And he's like, just got better. And he's like, I'll

625
00:31:59,340 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 2: take a blood oath.

626
00:31:59,900 --> 00:32:03,900
Speaker 1: I'll take a blood oath for you, man. Honestly, it

627
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,620
Speaker 1: is just so, so silly.

628
00:32:05,900 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

629
00:32:06,790 --> 00:32:10,290
Speaker 1: And then in this same chapter, sorry. So the vow,

630
00:32:10,350 --> 00:32:13,570
Speaker 1: Cale comes into the apartment all like pissy after they're like,

631
00:32:13,630 --> 00:32:17,430
Speaker 1: after him and Adion are talking. And, um, He says

632
00:32:17,830 --> 00:32:22,610
Speaker 1: the Vow commanders, they killed all the fucking, everyone. They

633
00:32:22,630 --> 00:32:24,870
Speaker 1: just burnt the whole shadow market. They've put it up

634
00:32:24,930 --> 00:32:26,950
Speaker 1: in flames, trapped them in and just burnt the whole thing.

635
00:32:27,710 --> 00:32:31,930
Speaker 1: And so Selander's like, oh, and I bet you fucking

636
00:32:31,950 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: probably that's my fault too, isn't it? And he's kind

637
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,740
Speaker 1: of like, well, of all the ways he could have

638
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,900
Speaker 1: done it, the king chose flames. So he was probably

639
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,420
Speaker 1: sending a message. And Adian was like, bro, watch your

640
00:32:40,620 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: fucking mouth, bro. That's my queen. All right. And I'll

641
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: actually fuck you up if you keep talking shit. Kale's

642
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,420
Speaker 1: pissing me off anyway. Want to see my blood over me? Yeah, true.

643
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, I'll fucking spill blood right here all

644
00:32:55,620 --> 00:33:00,610
Speaker 1: over you, you fucking loser. So Selene is like, shit.

645
00:33:01,390 --> 00:33:02,910
Speaker 1: And she goes out and she tracks one of the

646
00:33:03,250 --> 00:33:07,050
Speaker 1: Valg troops, groups or whatever. And then the commander breaks

647
00:33:07,090 --> 00:33:09,350
Speaker 1: off to go a different way. So she tracks that

648
00:33:09,410 --> 00:33:11,970
Speaker 1: commander and they go into a sewer and she's like

649
00:33:12,030 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: sneaking up, sneaking up, sneaking up. And this commander- goes

650
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: real deep in this sewer to this big pool and

651
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: there's this fuck off big creature like gangly um yucky

652
00:33:23,510 --> 00:33:27,030
Speaker 1: black creature looks deadly as fuck right that's just chilling

653
00:33:27,050 --> 00:33:30,030
Speaker 1: in this pool ways deep and um down in the

654
00:33:30,070 --> 00:33:32,150
Speaker 1: darkness and the and it's like you know all right

655
00:33:32,330 --> 00:33:34,870
Speaker 1: give me a fucking update to this like commander and

656
00:33:34,910 --> 00:33:36,770
Speaker 1: she goes she's wigging out she's like what the fuck

657
00:33:36,790 --> 00:33:39,290
Speaker 1: she calls it a valg hound or something i think

658
00:33:39,330 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: which is what she called it and um Sorry, we're

659
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:48,030
Speaker 1: going into chapter 27. She calls it a word hound.

660
00:33:49,370 --> 00:33:51,290
Speaker 1: And so she said, this is so weird. It looks

661
00:33:51,370 --> 00:33:54,570
Speaker 1: exactly like one of the gargoyles on the fucking tower.

662
00:33:55,530 --> 00:33:58,030
Speaker 1: Big black tower. She's like, is one of them missing

663
00:33:58,070 --> 00:34:00,610
Speaker 1: right now? Is this just like a carnation of it? Like,

664
00:34:00,710 --> 00:34:03,510
Speaker 1: is this a thing? Anywho, she's wigging out and she goes,

665
00:34:04,810 --> 00:34:09,180
Speaker 1: why the fuck does that sound exactly like the king?

666
00:34:10,090 --> 00:34:12,469
Speaker 1: So this thing's talking to the commander and it's the

667
00:34:12,610 --> 00:34:15,589
Speaker 1: king's voice. She's like, I don't know what sorcery this

668
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,859
Speaker 1: is where the king's looking through his eyes and speaking

669
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:22,700
Speaker 1: through his mouth. Yeah. But bro, yummy, yummy, juicy, juicy

670
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,219
Speaker 1: stuff here. Scary though. She's shivering. She's like, this is fucked.

671
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 2: The king is honestly like a genius, eh?

672
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:34,350
Speaker 1: So I'm still not sure if the king is a

673
00:34:34,450 --> 00:34:36,810
Speaker 1: good guy that was taken over. So I'm not sure

674
00:34:36,830 --> 00:34:38,570
Speaker 1: if the king was a good guy. And at 20

675
00:34:38,570 --> 00:34:42,990
Speaker 1: years old, He found the word keys and was like, oh, power, power, power, cool.

676
00:34:43,070 --> 00:34:45,870
Speaker 1: But then he got possessed and he isn't making any

677
00:34:45,890 --> 00:34:48,890
Speaker 1: of these choices. Or if he is the bad guy

678
00:34:49,190 --> 00:34:50,860
Speaker 1: and he's letting the Valg do all this.

679
00:34:51,610 --> 00:34:54,020
Speaker 2: I think it will be the first, but I want

680
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:54,980
Speaker 2: it to be the second.

681
00:34:55,020 --> 00:34:56,580
Speaker 1: I want him to be just an outright bad guy.

682
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: So I agree. But for the reason I think it's

683
00:34:59,820 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: the first one is because he was a prince at

684
00:35:01,860 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: the time, born to be a king. And it's like,

685
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:09,730
Speaker 1: think about what's happening to his city. Yeah. I can

686
00:35:09,750 --> 00:35:14,670
Speaker 1: understand wanting territory, but what are you doing to your people?

687
00:35:14,690 --> 00:35:18,970
Speaker 2: Because he hates Dorian. Is there any sort of inkling

688
00:35:19,010 --> 00:35:23,149
Speaker 2: that there's been something inside him that's looked after Dorian ever?

689
00:35:24,140 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. Not that I can think of. Yeah, neither.

690
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,620
Speaker 2: That'd be a tiny way to show that someone good's inside, maybe.

691
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,700
Speaker 1: And we know that the king and his queen, they

692
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,899
Speaker 1: don't sleep in the same room. They stay on different

693
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: sides of the castle and they basically just did it

694
00:35:37,620 --> 00:35:41,390
Speaker 1: to have kids. yeah so look i don't know bro

695
00:35:41,410 --> 00:35:49,250
Speaker 1: but craziness anyway um adian then is she goes back

696
00:35:49,290 --> 00:35:50,989
Speaker 1: to the house and she was took four hours and

697
00:35:51,030 --> 00:35:52,790
Speaker 1: he's like bro what the hell you said you'd be

698
00:35:52,830 --> 00:35:54,410
Speaker 1: two now you were four how do you think i

699
00:35:54,469 --> 00:35:56,259
Speaker 1: feel and she's like trust me i know how you

700
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: feel because of that night sam died anyway um she

701
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,380
Speaker 1: got he's like i need to get the fuck out

702
00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:03,500
Speaker 1: of this apartment by the way so she goes fine

703
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,460
Speaker 1: let's go out they go and then they're about to

704
00:36:06,500 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: leave to go for a walk on the street And

705
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: Nezrin pops up and she's like, yeah, Nezrin, come hang

706
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:12,660
Speaker 1: out with us. I was like, okay, weird. She just

707
00:36:12,739 --> 00:36:14,620
Speaker 1: randomly wants to be friends with Nezrin now. They go

708
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,790
Speaker 1: to a fucking pub, some yucky ass pub and go

709
00:36:16,830 --> 00:36:19,350
Speaker 1: play cards at the back and shit like that. Anyway,

710
00:36:19,370 --> 00:36:21,270
Speaker 1: they're walking home. It's like, what is it? I think

711
00:36:21,330 --> 00:36:25,049
Speaker 1: it's like 2 a.m. And they're walking the back streets

712
00:36:25,070 --> 00:36:28,060
Speaker 1: of the slums. And Adian has a better like sense

713
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,739
Speaker 1: of hearing and smell than the other two. So he

714
00:36:29,780 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: can hear someone's walking very softly, right? Not to go

715
00:36:33,500 --> 00:36:37,549
Speaker 1: to lie, didn't expect this for a while. Didn't expect

716
00:36:37,570 --> 00:36:38,430
Speaker 1: this to happen for a long time.

717
00:36:38,469 --> 00:36:40,589
Speaker 2: I didn't expect it for ages.

718
00:36:40,690 --> 00:36:43,890
Speaker 1: I didn't expect it for a long time anyway. So

719
00:36:44,890 --> 00:36:48,859
Speaker 1: he stops Nezrin and Selina and is like, just wait.

720
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:50,980
Speaker 1: He gets into a bit of a battle stance and

721
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: there's somewhat at the end of the slums now. And

722
00:36:52,660 --> 00:36:58,330
Speaker 1: they're like, what the fuck? Turns out they run into Rowan. Yeah.

723
00:36:58,610 --> 00:36:59,530
Speaker 1: I'm like, what?

724
00:37:01,350 --> 00:37:02,710
Speaker 2: That's what I was talking about at the start. I

725
00:37:02,710 --> 00:37:04,989
Speaker 2: was like, wow, I didn't think this was going to happen.

726
00:37:05,010 --> 00:37:06,700
Speaker 2: So I thought he was like going to come in

727
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 2: and be like a beast and save him, not just

728
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:09,780
Speaker 2: be like in the story.

729
00:37:10,060 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: He's just like part of the story. I'm kind of

730
00:37:11,420 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: happy about it, to be fair. I like it. It adds. Yeah,

731
00:37:13,980 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 1: it definitely adds to it. Okay, so Selene goes up,

732
00:37:17,180 --> 00:37:20,870
Speaker 1: runs into him, hugs him. And one thing we actually

733
00:37:20,890 --> 00:37:22,710
Speaker 1: forgot to talk about was in some of the conversations

734
00:37:22,730 --> 00:37:24,950
Speaker 1: her and Adian are having, she talks about Rowan as

735
00:37:25,050 --> 00:37:29,009
Speaker 1: if like he's a pain in her ass, right? That's

736
00:37:29,050 --> 00:37:31,140
Speaker 1: how Aelin talks about Rowan. She's like, yeah, fuck, he

737
00:37:31,180 --> 00:37:33,760
Speaker 1: taught me all this shit, but God, he's annoying, bro. God,

738
00:37:33,780 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 1: he's annoying. And Aedan's like, you know who Rowan is, right?

739
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,529
Speaker 1: This is before they meet. He's like, you know who

740
00:37:43,570 --> 00:37:48,290
Speaker 1: Rowan is, right? She goes, well, yeah, the prince, you know,

741
00:37:48,330 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: Prince Rowan. And he goes, Rowan's the most skilled fae

742
00:37:54,140 --> 00:37:57,890
Speaker 1: warrior that has ever existed, right? Or something like that, right?

743
00:37:58,070 --> 00:37:59,730
Speaker 2: Yeah.

744
00:38:00,210 --> 00:38:03,090
Speaker 1: And so, Slane is kind of like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Also,

745
00:38:03,210 --> 00:38:06,950
Speaker 1: pain in my ass, by the way, bro. He's like, yeah, no. Like,

746
00:38:07,050 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: people used to tell stories about him just when I

747
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: was a kid around the fire, you know, type shit. Cool. So,

748
00:38:16,100 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 1: and I was like, fuck, you know, like, that's crazy.

749
00:38:19,460 --> 00:38:21,580
Speaker 1: And so, now I'm kind of like, obviously, Rowan's a beast.

750
00:38:22,980 --> 00:38:26,150
Speaker 1: Rowan's a beast. Does that mean, like, Warrior.

751
00:38:26,170 --> 00:38:28,950
Speaker 2: Does that mean better than.

752
00:38:28,590 --> 00:38:31,350
Speaker 1: Rhys and shit? I think I would probably say more

753
00:38:31,570 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: on Cassian's scale because Rhys is... He's a high lord, right?

754
00:38:37,140 --> 00:38:40,380
Speaker 1: He's probably more like the Queen Maeve. Yeah. If you

755
00:38:40,420 --> 00:38:41,420
Speaker 1: really think about it.

756
00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:44,340
Speaker 2: So he's fucking... I've got to picture him on the

757
00:38:44,380 --> 00:38:46,760
Speaker 2: same pedestal as Cassian now. That's crazy.

758
00:38:46,780 --> 00:38:49,910
Speaker 1: So I think Rowan's more of the same as Cassian

759
00:38:49,950 --> 00:38:52,549
Speaker 1: and Asriel type of thing in terms of actual just

760
00:38:53,190 --> 00:38:56,819
Speaker 1: fighting skill. But I think... With the benefit of him

761
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,779
Speaker 1: being able to shift into a hawk, and he also

762
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: has the power of wind, I think he'd get the

763
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:05,529
Speaker 1: upper hand on them because he is Fae. Whereas Cassian

764
00:39:05,570 --> 00:39:08,830
Speaker 1: and Asriel, they're Illyrian warriors. They're not Fae, they're Illyrian.

765
00:39:09,130 --> 00:39:13,130
Speaker 1: But also, Cassian's the best fighter in all of Prithian.

766
00:39:14,050 --> 00:39:18,090
Speaker 1: But I think Rhys would fuck up. I agree. If

767
00:39:18,110 --> 00:39:20,350
Speaker 1: he's using his magic, I think Rhys would fuck up Rowan.

768
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:23,090
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's not a warrior category.

769
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,950
Speaker 1: Like, I think he'd probably beat Rhys in a hand-to-hand combat,

770
00:39:26,030 --> 00:39:27,469
Speaker 1: but if Rhys is allowed to just be like, nah,

771
00:39:27,489 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 1: fuck yeah, he'd just crush him. Yeah, exactly. now that

772
00:39:31,460 --> 00:39:33,660
Speaker 1: we're back so sorry on chapter 28 again back with

773
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,990
Speaker 1: meeting rowan so adian and rowan are just doing this

774
00:39:38,050 --> 00:39:40,029
Speaker 1: fey thing of like staring each other down and slain

775
00:39:40,050 --> 00:39:41,730
Speaker 1: is like okay for fuck's sake let's just go back

776
00:39:41,750 --> 00:39:44,390
Speaker 1: to the apartment nezrin goes home they go back to

777
00:39:44,410 --> 00:39:50,060
Speaker 1: the apartment and um Rowan stinks because he stowed away

778
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: on a ship, right? And he, he came for a reason.

779
00:39:53,100 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: He goes, I have my reasons for being here, but

780
00:39:54,340 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: he doesn't say them yet. And so he stows away

781
00:39:56,080 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: on a ship and then comes, he's super stinky. So

782
00:40:00,140 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: Selena's like, come home. You have to have a bath.

783
00:40:01,620 --> 00:40:03,969
Speaker 1: You smell really bad. Radio, blah, blah, blah. Cool, cool, cool.

784
00:40:05,030 --> 00:40:08,610
Speaker 1: Now we go out and they have a proper introduction

785
00:40:08,630 --> 00:40:12,170
Speaker 1: to Adian. And so she's like, Rowan, Adian, Adian, Rowan,

786
00:40:13,410 --> 00:40:16,950
Speaker 1: meet Rowan. Best friends. They're doing this stare down. They're

787
00:40:16,989 --> 00:40:20,650
Speaker 1: also like, Rowan's like, Adian's kind of like, this guy's huge.

788
00:40:21,450 --> 00:40:23,650
Speaker 1: This guy's huge. He's like my height, maybe a bit

789
00:40:23,670 --> 00:40:27,290
Speaker 1: bigger type shit because Adian's huge. And so they're like

790
00:40:27,330 --> 00:40:30,109
Speaker 1: staring each other down, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Cool, cool, cool.

791
00:40:30,550 --> 00:40:32,589
Speaker 1: And then they're kind of having this like big cock

792
00:40:32,670 --> 00:40:34,350
Speaker 1: off and Slane is like, for fuck's sakes, you guys

793
00:40:34,410 --> 00:40:40,220
Speaker 1: are so lame. And then Rowan goes, who's, who sired you?

794
00:40:40,700 --> 00:40:44,550
Speaker 1: As in, who's your father? And Adian's like, what? Because

795
00:40:44,830 --> 00:40:47,430
Speaker 1: he sniffs Aideon. He's like, who sired you? And he goes,

796
00:40:47,950 --> 00:40:49,259
Speaker 1: I don't know. He goes, yeah, so you know your mum,

797
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: but who is your father? And he goes, I was

798
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: never told. And then Selene goes, do you know him?

799
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,140
Speaker 1: And Rowan's like, yeah, you've met him. She goes, what?

800
00:41:00,380 --> 00:41:02,320
Speaker 1: He goes, you've met him. It's Gavriel.

801
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 2: So do we remember the mountain lion shifter?

802
00:41:06,420 --> 00:41:09,700
Speaker 1: Yeah. Gavriel is fucking Aideon's dad, bro.

803
00:41:10,140 --> 00:41:12,049
Speaker 2: Pretty cool way. I was like, what?

804
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,140
Speaker 1: And Selene is like, oh, is that why when I

805
00:41:16,180 --> 00:41:20,069
Speaker 1: met him, he asked me my age because I look

806
00:41:20,130 --> 00:41:25,150
Speaker 1: exactly like Adion and like exactly like, because Selene's mum

807
00:41:25,170 --> 00:41:28,109
Speaker 1: and Adion's mum were sisters. It's like, that's exactly what

808
00:41:28,170 --> 00:41:30,670
Speaker 1: she would have looked like if Gavriel had had a daughter.

809
00:41:31,380 --> 00:41:33,660
Speaker 1: And then when she, when he learned the age, so

810
00:41:33,900 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: he said, how old are you? She said, whatever age.

811
00:41:35,660 --> 00:41:38,460
Speaker 1: And he goes, okay, cool, cool, cool. And then Rowan's like, yeah, yeah,

812
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,580
Speaker 1: you just wouldn't have been old enough. But Adion, he's

813
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,380
Speaker 1: fucking old enough. And then, And then he confirms it.

814
00:41:44,380 --> 00:41:46,259
Speaker 1: He's like, no, bro, I can smell Gavriel all over you.

815
00:41:49,210 --> 00:41:51,710
Speaker 2: Which is straight up.

816
00:41:52,250 --> 00:41:53,850
Speaker 1: I read, I kind of think it's hectic, but I

817
00:41:53,870 --> 00:41:55,950
Speaker 1: was like, that's sick. Yeah, I reckon that's cool too.

818
00:41:56,710 --> 00:42:00,469
Speaker 1: And so obviously the Kada that answered to Rowan, or

819
00:42:00,510 --> 00:42:01,930
Speaker 1: did they answer to Rowan? Yeah, it was his Kada.

820
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,500
Speaker 1: I have a feeling like Gavriel was the only one

821
00:42:05,540 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 1: that stopped and actually tried to help Selene when she

822
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: was fighting those Valk princes of all the Kada. The

823
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,380
Speaker 1: other Kada just went down with Rowan because they all

824
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:13,180
Speaker 1: have a blood oath to Maeve.

825
00:42:13,820 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 2: Yep, keep in mind.

826
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:21,940
Speaker 1: Right, and then we also find out... So, yeah, we

827
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:26,219
Speaker 1: also find out that... Oh, no, not find out. Adion

828
00:42:26,260 --> 00:42:29,299
Speaker 1: finds out that Rowan's already given the blood oath. And

829
00:42:29,340 --> 00:42:33,390
Speaker 1: then him and Slanna have a huge fight. Huge fight.

830
00:42:34,590 --> 00:42:38,750
Speaker 1: And she's like, Broski, get the fuck out of my house, eh?

831
00:42:40,750 --> 00:42:45,270
Speaker 1: I was like, dang. They have a huge fight. Anyway,

832
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,180
Speaker 1: so chapter 29, Rowan says to Aelin, the reason I'm

833
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:57,340
Speaker 1: here is because Lorcan is here. And so apparently now

834
00:42:57,420 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: Lorcan's the strongest female in the realm. What's with that?

835
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 1: Someone goes, Rowan's the strongest, now Lorcan's the strongest. But

836
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,130
Speaker 1: he does go on to say, right? And so he

837
00:43:08,170 --> 00:43:11,230
Speaker 1: goes on to say, like, the reason he's here is

838
00:43:11,270 --> 00:43:13,330
Speaker 1: because he was obviously looking for you, but he doesn't

839
00:43:13,370 --> 00:43:15,190
Speaker 1: know your scent. And he probably just came here to

840
00:43:15,210 --> 00:43:16,870
Speaker 1: get me to come here to track me to you.

841
00:43:17,150 --> 00:43:18,989
Speaker 1: So he's going to find him. Right. And so then

842
00:43:19,050 --> 00:43:23,810
Speaker 1: she said, um, it is, it's in the book. It

843
00:43:23,850 --> 00:43:27,589
Speaker 1: says that Lorcan is Rowan's only equal. And so she says,

844
00:43:27,660 --> 00:43:30,460
Speaker 1: could you beat him? And he goes, well, I would

845
00:43:30,500 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 1: never actually want to fight him because of the devastation

846
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:37,899
Speaker 1: it would cause. He said, if we went head to head,

847
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,460
Speaker 1: he's like Lorcan, um, never, ever, ever, ever lets himself

848
00:43:41,500 --> 00:43:43,540
Speaker 1: lose at anything, whether it be with women, whether it

849
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 1: be in a fight, whether it be at cards, like gambling, anything,

850
00:43:47,260 --> 00:43:49,810
Speaker 1: he never lets himself lose. But he said, if we

851
00:43:49,830 --> 00:43:53,529
Speaker 1: just went hand-to-hand combat, because both of our magics are

852
00:43:53,550 --> 00:43:57,310
Speaker 1: stifled right now, it would just be whoever wants it more.

853
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,900
Speaker 1: And he goes, and I can tell you right now,

854
00:43:59,940 --> 00:44:02,280
Speaker 1: if we went hand-to-hand combat, he wouldn't walk out alive.

855
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 1: And I was like, that was fucking cold, Rowan. That

856
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: was cold as fuck. So what's up with everyone? Like

857
00:44:09,340 --> 00:44:13,859
Speaker 1: I've made a video on Instagram saying like, Rowan, strongest female, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

858
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: And then everyone's like, what about Lorcan? What about Lorcan?

859
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,860
Speaker 1: I'm like, first of all, who the fuck is Lorcan?

860
00:44:17,900 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: Hadn't met him yet. Also, who is Lorcan? Do we know?

861
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:23,020
Speaker 2: No, it doesn't mean anything about him.

862
00:44:23,300 --> 00:44:26,240
Speaker 1: I could have swore. Is Lorcan like part of the Cater?

863
00:44:26,500 --> 00:44:28,339
Speaker 1: I think he's part of the Cater. We might've had

864
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,540
Speaker 1: a reference to him in- Lorcan.

865
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,470
Speaker 2: I feel like I read it and remembered that name, but- Same.

866
00:44:33,790 --> 00:44:36,170
Speaker 1: Also, in this book, Odi, in the Queen of Shadows,

867
00:44:38,090 --> 00:44:41,850
Speaker 1: in these chapters, actually, ready? I'll just quickly finish. So,

868
00:44:41,910 --> 00:44:45,310
Speaker 1: Selene and Aelin, Aedion make up, right? Yeah. And then

869
00:44:45,350 --> 00:44:46,770
Speaker 1: she goes, we can have more than one blood oath,

870
00:44:46,790 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: you know? And he's like, oh, it's always been one.

871
00:44:48,910 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: It's always been one, blah, blah, blah. And then she's like, well,

872
00:44:51,860 --> 00:44:54,060
Speaker 1: new traditions, new things, you know, we can fucking do

873
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 1: what we want. And he's like, all right, cool. Well,

874
00:44:55,480 --> 00:45:00,940
Speaker 1: I'll do it, but only once you're crowned queen. Chapter 30.

875
00:45:00,940 --> 00:45:04,660
Speaker 1: Dorian has allowed the demon complete control of him since

876
00:45:04,780 --> 00:45:07,350
Speaker 1: Selene failed to kill him. He's like, fuck this. Who cares?

877
00:45:07,850 --> 00:45:11,710
Speaker 1: All right. What I want to talk about, first of all, cool, cool, cool.

878
00:45:11,750 --> 00:45:14,969
Speaker 1: I like all the bomb drops. First of all, have

879
00:45:15,010 --> 00:45:16,879
Speaker 1: we ever fucking had reference to Lorcan?

880
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 2: There has to have been, but I don't recall any

881
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 2: of it.

882
00:45:20,460 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: I don't recall it either. And I'm usually really good

883
00:45:23,060 --> 00:45:23,580
Speaker 1: with that shit.

884
00:45:23,700 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 2: You are really good.

885
00:45:24,860 --> 00:45:29,020
Speaker 1: Also, Oddy, another thing. Dude. Do you ever remember this

886
00:45:29,219 --> 00:45:33,500
Speaker 1: dinner they're talking about that where like Queen Maeve, like

887
00:45:33,620 --> 00:45:36,819
Speaker 1: I seem to remember Queen Maeve visiting that place that

888
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 1: Selina was staying at in Air of Fire, right? You know,

889
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,669
Speaker 1: where she was staying and training. I seem to remember

890
00:45:42,750 --> 00:45:45,590
Speaker 1: Queen Maeve visiting there for a dinner. But what I

891
00:45:45,670 --> 00:45:49,210
Speaker 1: don't remember is the referencing. So apparently at this dinner,

892
00:45:49,790 --> 00:45:53,390
Speaker 1: there was a fucking ex-lover of Rowan's there that was

893
00:45:53,430 --> 00:45:56,790
Speaker 1: like taunting Selina. I can't remember that.

894
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,339
Speaker 2: I remember the dinner they're talking about. The next level

895
00:45:59,380 --> 00:46:00,340
Speaker 2: is taunting Selena.

896
00:46:01,340 --> 00:46:04,820
Speaker 1: I also barely remember this dinner. I had to fucking

897
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,859
Speaker 1: really think about it. The only thing I can think

898
00:46:07,900 --> 00:46:09,620
Speaker 1: of is, to be fair, I read Heir of Fire

899
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,880
Speaker 1: within literally a week and a half, two weeks. I

900
00:46:13,380 --> 00:46:15,800
Speaker 1: think it was there. I do remember. It was like

901
00:46:16,340 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 1: three pages, not even.

902
00:46:17,969 --> 00:46:18,299
Speaker 2: Yeah.

903
00:46:18,950 --> 00:46:22,830
Speaker 1: Vaguely. Fuck sakes. I was like, did I miss a

904
00:46:22,870 --> 00:46:26,750
Speaker 1: complete chapter of this book of Heir of Fire? Anyway,

905
00:46:26,770 --> 00:46:28,750
Speaker 1: because I like blitzed through it because I was enjoying it,

906
00:46:28,750 --> 00:46:32,190
Speaker 1: but I usually really pick up on shit anyway. That's

907
00:46:32,210 --> 00:46:34,350
Speaker 1: what I wanted to ask. I just couldn't remember if

908
00:46:34,370 --> 00:46:35,570
Speaker 1: there was reference to Lorcan.

909
00:46:36,550 --> 00:46:37,219
Speaker 2: I don't know about Lorcan.

910
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: I don't remember anything about Lorcan. Comment below. I feel

911
00:46:39,980 --> 00:46:42,940
Speaker 1: like Lorcan, I have a feeling. I don't know. I

912
00:46:42,980 --> 00:46:45,020
Speaker 1: might look it up quickly because I might just to confirm.

913
00:46:45,060 --> 00:46:50,280
Speaker 1: So I think Lorcan is the, I have a feeling

914
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,509
Speaker 1: he's part of the Cater, right? But he's the only

915
00:46:53,610 --> 00:46:57,290
Speaker 1: one that doesn't actually shift into an animal. Does that

916
00:46:57,330 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: make sense? It could, but... Who is Lorcan? Throne of Glass.

917
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,540
Speaker 2: Are you giving something away in a sense of like

918
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:06,919
Speaker 2: you might find out who he is more?

919
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,219
Speaker 1: True, that's a good point. I feel like I don't

920
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 1: want to really look up too much. But he's supposed

921
00:47:12,860 --> 00:47:16,730
Speaker 1: to be the strongest and also sexiest or some shit.

922
00:47:16,790 --> 00:47:20,569
Speaker 2: Everyone's a sexiest. Yeah, that's a good point.

923
00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:22,450
Speaker 1: Everyone's a sexiest. Part of this book that I thought

924
00:47:22,469 --> 00:47:27,060
Speaker 1: was so... I don't know. I thought it was so weird,

925
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: maybe sweet. I just don't think it's sweet. So, Rowan,

926
00:47:31,739 --> 00:47:34,620
Speaker 1: Slayna's making Rowan sleep in her bed, right? And he's

927
00:47:34,660 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 1: kind of like, this isn't the Fae realm, right? When

928
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: we were doing that, where we were, we did it

929
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,319
Speaker 1: purely platonically, right? No one bats an eye at that

930
00:47:44,340 --> 00:47:46,340
Speaker 1: type of shit where we are in the realm of Doronel.

931
00:47:47,380 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: He's like, here, it's going to send a message, right?

932
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,339
Speaker 1: Especially if I'm like taking a blood oath and I've like,

933
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,580
Speaker 1: you know, committed my life to protect you type shit

934
00:47:55,700 --> 00:47:59,300
Speaker 1: and like serve you. And she's kind of like, bro, chill.

935
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:01,980
Speaker 1: We do what we want here. He's like, seriously, I

936
00:48:02,100 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 1: think about this. You're a queen. He's going to bite

937
00:48:04,460 --> 00:48:06,660
Speaker 1: Selene in the bum, 100%. She's still so naive.

938
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

939
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,540
Speaker 1: And so she's like, no, no, no, no, no.

940
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:10,120
Speaker 2: Like, it's fine.

941
00:48:10,140 --> 00:48:12,339
Speaker 1: It's fine. It's fine. And I was kind of like, look,

942
00:48:13,140 --> 00:48:14,399
Speaker 1: I think it was good of him to like say

943
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:20,710
Speaker 1: that and warn her. And then I thought, what did

944
00:48:20,750 --> 00:48:24,140
Speaker 1: I think? Oh, and also he's kind of like, Another

945
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 1: reason I don't want to sleep in bed with her

946
00:48:25,180 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: is because I like have feelings for her. He like

947
00:48:27,219 --> 00:48:30,219
Speaker 1: admits thinking she's beautiful and feeling something for her and

948
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,820
Speaker 1: missing her and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And dreaming

949
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,060
Speaker 1: about it while they were apart, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

950
00:48:35,500 --> 00:48:38,569
Speaker 1: But this is the part I'm wigging out about that.

951
00:48:38,590 --> 00:48:40,549
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's sweet. I'm leaning towards this

952
00:48:40,610 --> 00:48:43,130
Speaker 1: is so sus and just so mean is he goes,

953
00:48:43,630 --> 00:48:46,750
Speaker 1: when I first met her, I didn't think she was beautiful.

954
00:48:47,290 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: I didn't realize she was beautiful. And he's like, he

955
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: doubles down and he's like, I actually took, it took

956
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,100
Speaker 1: me a couple months to realize that she was pretty

957
00:48:54,140 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 1: at all. I was like, come on, bro. I know.

958
00:48:59,340 --> 00:49:02,140
Speaker 2: Is that like, because she was grieving Nehemia when they met,

959
00:49:02,180 --> 00:49:05,260
Speaker 2: wasn't she? And she was like in the pits kind

960
00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: of and just like looking for fights.

961
00:49:07,489 --> 00:49:09,470
Speaker 1: That's a good point. And she was in that, whatever

962
00:49:09,510 --> 00:49:10,490
Speaker 1: that city was called.

963
00:49:10,630 --> 00:49:12,610
Speaker 2: It's one of those things you can keep to yourself,

964
00:49:12,670 --> 00:49:13,710
Speaker 2: isn't it?

965
00:49:13,750 --> 00:49:16,250
Speaker 1: To be fair, it was in a monologue thought, but

966
00:49:16,270 --> 00:49:18,009
Speaker 1: I also just thought I didn't want to know that.

967
00:49:18,050 --> 00:49:19,709
Speaker 1: I don't care. Yeah, true.

968
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:21,180
Speaker 2: Funny though.

969
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,100
Speaker 1: Very funny. But no, I'm very happy as well. This

970
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 1: book's great. Very enjoyable. Hectic book, eh? Something I've found

971
00:49:29,140 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 1: while reading both Crescent City and Queen of Shadows at

972
00:49:31,219 --> 00:49:35,350
Speaker 1: the same time is So once I like really start

973
00:49:35,390 --> 00:49:38,149
Speaker 1: to read Crescent City, I get into it the same amount, right?

974
00:49:38,330 --> 00:49:39,469
Speaker 1: I get into it, I get into it, I get

975
00:49:39,489 --> 00:49:41,509
Speaker 1: into it. But then when we record one of these

976
00:49:41,550 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: and I can go read more chapters of Queen of Shadows,

977
00:49:45,620 --> 00:49:48,739
Speaker 1: I think about Queen of Shadows a lot more. And

978
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:50,660
Speaker 1: it's like I kind of yearn to read it a

979
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: lot more. Like the last two days, I could have

980
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:58,180
Speaker 1: read Crescent City, but I didn't. Yeah. Because I had

981
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: read these chapters and we hadn't recorded yet. Well, I

982
00:50:01,020 --> 00:50:01,339
Speaker 1: don't know.

983
00:50:01,380 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 2: Maybe that's like, I also feel we've, because I edit

984
00:50:03,300 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 2: the book clubs, I quite like going through them again.

985
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:07,830
Speaker 2: And I do feel the reliving of it and almost

986
00:50:07,890 --> 00:50:10,850
Speaker 2: like makes you experience it and think about.

987
00:50:10,690 --> 00:50:11,930
Speaker 1: It even more. Yeah.

988
00:50:12,510 --> 00:50:14,830
Speaker 2: Which is maybe what the audience is feeling as well,

989
00:50:14,870 --> 00:50:16,050
Speaker 2: which is a bit of a perk.

990
00:50:16,489 --> 00:50:18,130
Speaker 1: Or just the book is better.

991
00:50:20,180 --> 00:50:25,020
Speaker 2: I've seen more resounding consensuses that Throne of Glass is

992
00:50:25,060 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 2: better than Crescent.

993
00:50:25,620 --> 00:50:31,280
Speaker 1: City, I reckon. I am going to say so far, agreed. Yeah.

994
00:50:31,620 --> 00:50:33,320
Speaker 1: You know what else I think? So, Throne of Glass,

995
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:37,109
Speaker 1: I also think is better than ACOTAR. Shit. I'm not

996
00:50:37,210 --> 00:50:39,110
Speaker 1: A & A. Do you want to know? Do you

997
00:50:39,130 --> 00:50:42,110
Speaker 1: want to hear another hot take? What? I think Crescent

998
00:50:42,130 --> 00:50:45,850
Speaker 1: City is better than ACOTAR. Really? Yeah.

999
00:50:46,930 --> 00:50:48,970
Speaker 2: Crescent City? It's just cooler.

1000
00:50:49,350 --> 00:50:54,109
Speaker 1: Bro, I'm telling you, Bryce Quinlan, like, Bryce Quinlan is

1001
00:50:54,690 --> 00:50:59,839
Speaker 1: the coolest main character of any book I think I've read. Like,

1002
00:51:00,230 --> 00:51:03,810
Speaker 1: The only one that compares to me right now is

1003
00:51:03,950 --> 00:51:07,090
Speaker 1: either Selena, or you might want to call it Aylin,

1004
00:51:07,110 --> 00:51:10,270
Speaker 1: I don't know, and Darrow from fucking Red Rising. Those

1005
00:51:10,290 --> 00:51:11,969
Speaker 1: are the only two that compare to me right now.

1006
00:51:12,070 --> 00:51:13,649
Speaker 1: I think Bryce is the best out of the three, though.

1007
00:51:14,770 --> 00:51:17,629
Speaker 2: I will say the depth of Throne of Glass is

1008
00:51:18,410 --> 00:51:21,330
Speaker 2: so much more than Akatar already.

1009
00:51:21,350 --> 00:51:22,730
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1010
00:51:24,730 --> 00:51:27,650
Speaker 2: Yeah, I see why you would say that, too.

1011
00:51:27,670 --> 00:51:32,240
Speaker 1: I think... Akital was an easier read, though, I reckon.

1012
00:51:32,890 --> 00:51:34,930
Speaker 2: Like in a sense of just like to follow and

1013
00:51:34,969 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 2: just like you kind of just dip in and out.

1014
00:51:36,710 --> 00:51:39,669
Speaker 2: It's just exciting. It's very surface level, but it's really,

1015
00:51:39,710 --> 00:51:42,270
Speaker 2: really good. Whereas this seems to be like, ooh, wah, wah.

1016
00:51:42,510 --> 00:51:47,090
Speaker 2: And there's a lot of characters like that. But there's

1017
00:51:47,110 --> 00:51:47,690
Speaker 2: some good takes.

1018
00:51:48,070 --> 00:51:48,549
Speaker 1: All right.

1019
00:51:48,650 --> 00:51:51,030
Speaker 2: So shall we finish on predictions?

1020
00:51:51,530 --> 00:52:01,600
Speaker 1: Yes, we should. Right. I am predicting that... I don't

1021
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:03,420
Speaker 1: know if it will happen in this book, but I'm

1022
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 1: predicting that Rowan's entire cater ends up serving Selina or

1023
00:52:11,900 --> 00:52:15,920
Speaker 1: Queen Aelin. Yeah, Lorcan included. I don't think Lorcan's a villain.

1024
00:52:15,940 --> 00:52:21,110
Speaker 1: I think Lorcan, I think he's made out to be

1025
00:52:21,140 --> 00:52:23,310
Speaker 1: a villain. I have a feeling, I hope at least,

1026
00:52:23,350 --> 00:52:28,569
Speaker 1: I think Lorcan will end up coming good. Even though

1027
00:52:28,590 --> 00:52:30,069
Speaker 1: we haven't met him yet, I might change my mind.

1028
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:35,300
Speaker 1: I think that there's going to be a war with

1029
00:52:35,700 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 1: Queen Maeve before there's a war with the King of Ardalan.

1030
00:52:39,940 --> 00:52:40,300
Speaker 2: Okay.

1031
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:41,780
Speaker 1: I do see that as well.

1032
00:52:42,210 --> 00:52:45,710
Speaker 2: I feel like the war with the King will be

1033
00:52:45,810 --> 00:52:48,410
Speaker 2: more the next book or like the last book, obviously.

1034
00:52:48,710 --> 00:52:49,750
Speaker 1: Last one, yeah, for sure.

1035
00:52:49,930 --> 00:52:50,290
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1036
00:52:50,830 --> 00:52:53,660
Speaker 1: I'm so intrigued by Manon's thing and I just am

1037
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,819
Speaker 1: so sure Manon's going to switch sides. I'm so sure

1038
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 1: of it.

1039
00:52:56,530 --> 00:52:59,830
Speaker 2: Oh, I 100% agree with that. Also, I reckon, do

1040
00:52:59,890 --> 00:53:02,549
Speaker 2: you think in this book, Doran will be able to

1041
00:53:02,650 --> 00:53:04,790
Speaker 2: show that he's still in there to Selana somehow and

1042
00:53:04,810 --> 00:53:10,870
Speaker 2: they'll figure out how to get him out? Yes.

1043
00:53:11,950 --> 00:53:14,850
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like it will be this book. Yeah.

1044
00:53:14,989 --> 00:53:16,509
Speaker 2: And then Kale will be like, oh my God, I've

1045
00:53:16,550 --> 00:53:20,340
Speaker 2: got my boy back. And then maybe Kale will start

1046
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:21,490
Speaker 2: to like side with them again.

1047
00:53:21,510 --> 00:53:25,780
Speaker 1: Oh, here's something I want to tell you. That could potentially...

1048
00:53:26,270 --> 00:53:30,010
Speaker 1: confirm what you are saying is i saw a comment

1049
00:53:30,530 --> 00:53:33,129
Speaker 1: you might have seen it too apparently people think that

1050
00:53:33,710 --> 00:53:36,870
Speaker 1: um kale is going to redeem himself in this book.

1051
00:53:37,489 --> 00:53:39,379
Speaker 2: I did see that everyone's like just you wait like

1052
00:53:39,530 --> 00:53:47,299
Speaker 2: you actually might like kale again um and then arabin

1053
00:53:47,340 --> 00:53:49,839
Speaker 2: like i after what you said last week about you're

1054
00:53:49,860 --> 00:53:52,020
Speaker 2: hoping arabin dies and like that's the end of him

1055
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,739
Speaker 2: i quite like i was sitting on that i think

1056
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:56,859
Speaker 2: i like that as well Here's the.

1057
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 1: Reason why I don't anymore, though. I've got to tell

1058
00:53:58,420 --> 00:54:02,899
Speaker 1: you why. I think that he's the only one. So,

1059
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:07,509
Speaker 1: there's two ways that they fund their war, right? So, Selina. So,

1060
00:54:07,530 --> 00:54:11,850
Speaker 1: let's just call Selina Terrison. Terrison versus Ardalan, right? Ardalan

1061
00:54:11,870 --> 00:54:15,250
Speaker 1: has all the money already. They're funding their side. Terrison,

1062
00:54:15,710 --> 00:54:17,950
Speaker 1: the only thing they can do is either take donations

1063
00:54:18,190 --> 00:54:20,430
Speaker 1: or people signing up and not being paid.

1064
00:54:20,710 --> 00:54:21,430
Speaker 2: Forgot about that, yeah.

1065
00:54:21,950 --> 00:54:24,569
Speaker 1: And so, I think that there's two ways they pay

1066
00:54:24,650 --> 00:54:29,359
Speaker 1: for it. Either... Because they constantly talk about Adolin being

1067
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,779
Speaker 1: as rich as the king. Sorry. They constantly talk about

1068
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:36,100
Speaker 1: Arobin being as rich as the king. They've said it

1069
00:54:36,140 --> 00:54:38,620
Speaker 1: at least four times in the whole series. They always

1070
00:54:38,660 --> 00:54:41,950
Speaker 1: say it. So I think that they have to sell

1071
00:54:42,070 --> 00:54:48,469
Speaker 1: out and be funded by him or kill him, take

1072
00:54:48,530 --> 00:54:53,270
Speaker 1: all his money. Right? And then if neither of those happen,

1073
00:54:53,610 --> 00:54:55,730
Speaker 1: it's got to be because they go fuck up good

1074
00:54:55,750 --> 00:54:57,490
Speaker 1: old Maevee and take all her.

1075
00:54:57,350 --> 00:55:03,130
Speaker 2: Shit ah shit i missed that a bit the first

1076
00:55:03,290 --> 00:55:05,790
Speaker 2: one like teaming up with arabin because arabin's like a

1077
00:55:05,830 --> 00:55:08,150
Speaker 2: plotter and schemer he knows when people like want him

1078
00:55:08,210 --> 00:55:10,330
Speaker 2: dead like he's going to come in and be like

00:55:14,550 --> 00:55:17,399
Speaker 1: He mentions that he mentions that he literally mentions that

1082
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:22,779
Speaker 1: so yeah he actually does mention something a about you

1083
00:55:22,820 --> 00:55:26,259
Speaker 1: know what i can provide or some shit shit and

1084
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,299
Speaker 1: he doesn't like the king because he's like the king's

1085
00:55:28,390 --> 00:55:32,410
Speaker 1: fucking up my city man legit all my business all

1086
00:55:32,430 --> 00:55:34,930
Speaker 1: right we'll leave it at that chapters we're doing 10

1087
00:55:34,930 --> 00:55:37,750
Speaker 1: more let's do 10 more and then we'll decide from

1088
00:55:37,770 --> 00:55:39,110
Speaker 1: there if we're going to do 20 more we might

1089
00:55:39,130 --> 00:55:40,570
Speaker 1: want to do 20 after that but let's try and

1090
00:55:40,590 --> 00:55:42,009
Speaker 1: do 10 more so we can get properly.

1091
00:55:41,780 --> 00:55:45,779
Speaker 2: Ahead so we'll go to chapter 40 next and there's

00:55:53,090 --> 00:55:55,370
Speaker 1: two pages in there. Yeah.

1096
00:55:55,410 --> 00:55:56,830
Speaker 2: There was a few short chapters in this one, actually.

1097
00:55:56,850 --> 00:55:58,660
Speaker 1: It was like two short ones. That's a good point.

1098
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:01,740
Speaker 2: So we'll see you next week. Baddies, 10 chapters. And Patreon,

00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,719
Speaker 2: of course, we always forget to plug it.

00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:04,879
Speaker 1: $ 8. 99.

1101
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,819
Speaker 2: You now 100% get the episode five days early as well.

1102
00:56:07,860 --> 00:56:10,460
Speaker 2: If you're on YouTube, there's a hype button on YouTube now.

1103
00:56:10,580 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 2: Be sure to click it on the book club especially

1104
00:56:12,260 --> 00:56:14,779
Speaker 2: and subscribe if you're new around here because we're going

1105
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 2: for how many subscribers, Jake?

1106
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:20,200
Speaker 1: 50,000, no time frame.

1107
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,549
Speaker 2: 50,000 subscribers. Honestly, we haven't really had a goal for

1108
00:56:24,570 --> 00:56:26,250
Speaker 2: the podcast in a long time. We do have goals

1109
00:56:26,290 --> 00:56:30,170
Speaker 2: outside of, I don't know, listeners, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

1110
00:56:30,350 --> 00:56:33,669
Speaker 1: But 100,000 subscriber plaque? That'd be hectic. That's a cool goal.

1111
00:56:33,969 --> 00:56:34,509
Speaker 1: That's a cool goal.

1112
00:56:34,550 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 2: And imagine a lot of it was initiated from our

1113
00:56:37,219 --> 00:56:40,020
Speaker 2: book club does the best on YouTube. Our podcast, the

1114
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 2: main episodes do better. But it was book club.

1115
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: We go, fuck.

1116
00:56:43,180 --> 00:56:46,860
Speaker 2: They started the... They started the movement to get 100,000 subscribers.

1117
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:48,860
Speaker 1: Literally, that'd be fucking sick.

1118
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:49,840
Speaker 2: That's so cool.

1119
00:56:50,390 --> 00:56:53,110
Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean, what else do you even read?

1120
00:56:53,210 --> 00:56:55,489
Speaker 1: Like Sarah J Maas has so much hype. My biggest

1121
00:56:55,530 --> 00:56:57,930
Speaker 1: worry is when we're done all of this, right? Reread!

1122
00:56:58,390 --> 00:56:59,700
Speaker 1: We just do rereads and read it.

1123
00:57:02,489 --> 00:57:05,470
Speaker 2: No, but before Akatar comes out, sorry, the sixth book,

1124
00:57:05,810 --> 00:57:08,380
Speaker 2: Splintered Harmony, I would like to do like a sort of,

1125
00:57:08,430 --> 00:57:10,410
Speaker 2: I don't know how to do it. Comment below, Baddies,

1126
00:57:10,430 --> 00:57:12,549
Speaker 2: because obviously we can't read the whole fucking series again. No.

1127
00:57:13,350 --> 00:57:14,230
Speaker 1: Right before it comes out.

1128
00:57:14,650 --> 00:57:16,770
Speaker 2: A recap sort of episode, but I don't know how

1129
00:57:16,810 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 2: to like properly, um, get all the gist again. And

1130
00:57:21,740 --> 00:57:24,020
Speaker 2: I'm thinking about doing something with Luke Bateman, our best friend.

1131
00:57:24,420 --> 00:57:26,700
Speaker 2: He said yes already. So he's currently reading it.

1132
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:27,140
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1133
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,620
Speaker 2: He's going to be finished him. So his memory will be, um,

1134
00:57:29,780 --> 00:57:33,340
Speaker 2: refreshed or like fresh. Um, but comment below the best

1135
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,000
Speaker 2: way to do that. Maybe there's a good website that

1136
00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 2: has like great sort of like, um, book summaries or something.

1137
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,060
Speaker 1: Yeah. To be fair, like I could probably give a

1138
00:57:41,060 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: 30 minute rundown of everything. Very loose.

1139
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 2: I remember Akita Akuri, but I want it more like...

1140
00:57:47,180 --> 00:57:49,810
Speaker 2: You know when you go to watch The Hobbit, but

1141
00:57:49,850 --> 00:57:51,650
Speaker 2: you go watch Lord of the Rings before because you

1142
00:57:51,670 --> 00:57:54,350
Speaker 2: just want the fucking juicy nitty gritty of it, right?

1143
00:57:54,390 --> 00:57:55,980
Speaker 2: And you're fresh in your mind, but you know what happens.

1144
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:59,600
Speaker 1: It's like that. Okay, now I hear you. All right, baddies,

1145
00:57:59,620 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 1: we love you. Stay bad.
