legendborn theories

So I had to take a moment to collect my thoughts after reading Bloodmarked and I have some theories on how this series is going to end:

I think Nick is going to sacrifice himself. In Bloodmarked, the scene where Nick makes the decision to not got with them, I felt was very pivotal and foretelling (in the 1st book he was taken, in this book he left willing). I think in the 3rd book he will leave them permanently. The scene where all 3 of them are in the bloodwalk and Nick looks b/w Bree & SEl, to me that read that he was tired of losing people and made the decison to do whatever it takes to not lose the last 2 people he cares about.

Nick is going to have a corruption arc/go dark. In th finale Nick says "I can't lose you; I won't lose her" and he ended up losing BOTH of them. Nick at the end of BM has lost his mom, his dad, his bodyguard whose been with him since he was a child, and now the love of his life. He's lost eveyone he has ever cared about. and I think that is what is going to tip him over the edge. I hope Tracy does 3 POV of Sel, Bree, and Nick since the trio is now scattered.

Finally, I think this book will end in betrayal, but this time a love betrayal. In the Arthurian legend, Lancelot betrays Arthur because of love. After Nick decides to not go w/ them, both Sel and Bree feel betrayed. They eventually kiss (its important to note that Bree is the one that kisses Sel; compared to in LB where Nick makes the 1st move on Bree). By then end of the book Nick does not know that Bree and Sel have kissed, or that Bree sacrificed her life/freedom for Sel who did the same for her. As far as Nick knows, Bree only has feelings for him. So couple w/ the fact that there is romance b/w Bree & Sel, and that Nick is mostly going to go dark, I think Nick may end up turning against them becuz he feels betrayed.

Idk im just theorizing here. I think Bree has something up her sleeve becuz I don't think she world dive in head first into a bargain like that.

I also think that Sel may get his humanity back but at a price (im thinking in terms of Zuko, he will have permanent marks on his face or something).

I think there may end up being a final battle b/w Nick and Bree. And i think there is going to be 1-2 yr time jump. (imagine that, having to fight ur 1st love, Tracy WOULD do something like that)

Alice will wake up becuz BM hinted that Alice may have root flowing through her, so I think she will heal but it may take some time.

Idk, let me know what y'all think.

A Random Assortment of Thoughts about Nick

I feel like Nick doesn't get as much attention as he ought to as a character, mainly because he's Not Sel lol, but also he's basically MIA for most of Bloodmarked. I personally don't really get why he decides to not go with Sel and Bree when they risk their lives to save him (shame maybe?), but I have some thoughts and theories about his character and where it could go.

Nick as a love interest

I’ll be honest, when I finished Legendborn and Bloodmarked the first time, I couldn’t so much as tolerate the thought of Bree ending up with Nick and not with Sel. That enemies-to-lovers arc has me in a chokehold! However, upon re-reading, I’ve really come to appreciate Nick and Bree’s fast-burning, friends-to-lovers story. Nick comes across as very emotionally open and warm, but he’s not boring at all - he’s very flirtatious and even passionate towards Bree (seriously, go back and read some of those kissing scenes, especially the one at the Gala 😍🔥🥵). He boldly, openly loves Bree in a space where people reject her. He stands up for her, and I know he would eviscerate the Regents if he found out how they tortured her. I was actually kind of sad at how little we end up seeing him in Bloodmarked when I re-read Legendborn.

Nick as a person

Sure he's sunny and charming and golden, but WOW Nick has baggage - for good reason. A recap:

- He was trained so ruthlessly as a little boy, it was basically abuse :(

- The one person who saw his value as a human being and not just a future king was very cruelly removed from his life (Mom)

- He had a strange magician boy thrust into his space/life in a very invasive way (still love you tho Sel)

- His relationship with Sel is fraught with tension, jealousy, and bitterness on both sides. They at least settle into a form of acceptance in Bloodmarked, because they both love Bree.

- He discovers that his entire life has been a lie, watches the girl he loves get possessed by a medieval ghost, sees his father speared to death, and then has to come to terms with his own cold-blooded murder of Max (even though Max deserved it! ⚔️)

All of the above create a very complex, traumatised character who suppresses his rage to keep up appearances, but when we do see him lose it, he really, really loses it - e.g. when he punches Sel, and in book 2 when he beheads Max. There’s a ruthlessness in Nick that is driven by pure rage, and I really hope that gets explored more in the 3rd book.

It does make me worry about where he and Bree are headed, because Nick hates the Order (for good reason) and he is kinda self-righteous, so I’m wondering if he’ll feel compelled to kill Bree, even though he loves her, with the goal of ending the lines for good. I can somehow see him following that line of thought and feeling justified in doing so. He is, after all, the Scion of Lancelot - betraying Arthur in some way is kinda his destiny!

Nick as a Zodiac Sign

Don't know if Ms Deonn has given him a sign already, but I get strong Leo vibes from Nick - the golden hair, strong sense of justice, the way people look to him for leadership whether he likes it or not, the self-righteousness, the loyalty towards Bree...

Edit 2/6/23 - change my mind. He's inspired by Steve Rogers, who is a Cancer boi, and honestly it fits. His ability to navigate his and other people's emotions, the association with the colour blue, his fierce defense of those he loves... Very ♋

Nick as an AI-boi

Kept imagining a stereotypically cute blonde dude for Nick, so I tried to recreate it in AI art.

I really enjoyed Bloodmarked lmao

Brees family + found family

the dad and mom scenes really got me feeling all types of ways, I love stories about complicated relationships with parents (mothers especially) and Brees journey with her grief and the memory of her mother got me in the heart

“I thought Merlins were only good at making weapons."

Sel's head is tilted back, a slow smile on his face as the aether falls around him. “So did I.”
