I love this video! I am reading Onyx Storm right now too and this was super helpful especially for some of the parts I was a little confused about. Love love love this!!
Yay! I got hooked on these books just a few weeks ago though audiobook and no one in my life cares to read them and I have not been able too gush about them with anyone who knows what the heck I’m talking about. 😂 now I can listen to people talk about my new obsession. 🐉 🗡️
I read it the same way how Violet showed the image to Xaden when they were at it in bed. I also was questioning why Xaden mentioned dutchess and then later in the chapters he's announced as the duke of tyrrendor.
IS VIOLET PREGNANT? Hear me out! Theophanie says to violet when she sees her in the field with Bodie that she reeks of his kin? Yes you could argue she’s just referring to bodhi being xaden’s family but Rebecca always foreshadows and leaves little Easter eggs there when you re-read her books. Another possible egg when violet is in her and xadens room with Mira and Brennan and Mira says “she said the heart that beat for you - or within you -“. Brennan repeats and emphasises it again saying “within her or for her?” Xaden assumes they are talking about him. I think he’s the heart that beats for her and the baby is the heart that beats within her, but they assume the priestess was referring to violet herself. In the first book violet says to xaden before they sleep together that she takes the fertility suppressant and xaden says he does too but they slept together on the isles where magic and that doesn’t work? Another possibility is they haven’t been taking it, considering Xaden is avoiding being physical with her so he doesn’t lose control and channel and given all the craziness happening with everything that’s going on violet may also have forgotten to take it? Then she talks about how tired she is throughout the rest of the book after that scene in the isles. Early pregnancy symptoms? I think she even mentions nausea at one point? Also xaden marrying her would make their heir legitimate. Also I don’t think either xaden or violet know she’s pregnant if she is, I think he was only marrying her so she could rule aretia because bodhi has turned venin. Also there was lots of foreshadowing of their marriage in this book when xaden kept referring to violet as his consort and even when he called her a duchess at one point. There was a lot of mentions of an heir too when xaden was talking to or referring to bodhi but we all know Rebecca foreshadows and she thinks we all think he’s talking about bodhi but I think it’s violets pregnancy. Also go back to earlier in the books when violets mother says to her don’t judge my actions until you become a parent yourself. More foreshadowing? There is also recovered correspondence from Fen Riorson, Xaden’s dad, to an unknown source that says forget about love when it comes to marriage. Save love for your children. I’m paraphrasing that line but it’s in there. Again emphasis on children and this time from the Riorson bloodline? More foreshadowing?
@ we don’t know who actually turned venin yet, either bodhi or Garrick. I think it’s bodhi. Remember xaden says I can’t believe he would do this after seeing what I’ve been through the past five months. So it’s someone in his close circle who knew he turned venin.
Nope not pregnant, she is walking through dreams at night, not getting the rest she needs. Also remember chronic illness, Rebecca shows how tired she herself was writing and pushing herself to the limit, like Violet making plans, trying to save Xaden, finding her independence and own story not just Xaden Xaden Xaden... She is becoming her own person while trying to kill venin, find a cure, becoming a reluctant leader... And between all that walking in her sleep, and she is trying to help Andarna too
When you said “Violet has her car seat” I lost it 😂
I LAUGHED OUT LOUD when you said Tairn is a girl dad. 😂
lol he totally is
Oh he loves the girlie drama!

Thank you!!! I feel like I’m following onyx storm pretty well so far but you guys pointed out a few things I missed!
Yay, I FOUND A BOOK PODCAST!!
Hahahaha I was trying to explain venin to my husband and I said essentially they’re earth vampires. So happy to hear someone else liken them to vamps!
I have literally been so confused and I’ve read the first two so I hope this helps
Omg thank you. This helped sooo much
I wonder if they tried imogens signet on xaden to see if he could "forget" channelling 🤔
That would be dangerous! He would most likely still have the urge to channel without knowing why and not knowing why he would need to control it.
I read it the same way how Violet showed the image to Xaden when they were at it in bed. I also was questioning why Xaden mentioned dutchess and then later in the chapters he's announced as the duke of tyrrendor.
I think I’m turning venin, my eyes keep turning red from my lash serum 😅
IS VIOLET PREGNANT? Hear me out!

I didn't think of this. But I don't remember Bodhi turning venin, or do you mean Xaden?

This makes so much sense!!!!
