another small detail in adofn that has been haunting me is the fact that wulf takes the newly born princess sabran to the tomb of an inyscan princess. not inysh, inyscan. keeping in mind how eller meant to mould glorian into “a queen of inysca” but failed—how incredibly poignant is it, then, that wulf seeks protection for his daughter in a place that symbolises the death of what she could have been.
#a day of fallen night#adofn#roots of chaos#the ‘seeking protection’ part is also. incredibly befitting of the way glorian—when faced with viewpoints that oppose her religion—#constantly refuses to challenge her own convictions and falls back on the sense of comfort and protection the six virtues provide#not that this is a personal fault unique to her but rather a paradigm of the way the faith of the six virtues functions esp wrt criticism#which is to say it doesn’t! criticism or questioning (whomever it comes from; whether they follow the faith or not) isn’t tolerated#either through fear of not having a place in halgalant or at the threat of being killed for heresy#etc etc I digress#sorry I just think virtudom is incredibly fascinating#though. tbh I just think everything in the roots of chaos series is incredibly fascinating#elli rambles#adofn spoilers#roc#r#a
