“My mother is Ketterdam. She birthed me in the harbor. And my father is profit. I honor him daily.”

[zoyalaisobachka]

I don't know if this had been said before but I just reached this certain part in Crooked Kingdom again and it took me four or five rereads, but now it flicked a switch.

I see people call Kaz dramatic for this statement all the time:

"My mother is Ketterdam. She birthed me in the harbor. And my father is profit. I Honor him daily."

And yes, at first sight it does sound dramatic. But actually, it's the truth if we think about it.

Kaz himself said it: Jordie and he died these years ago, but Kaz was reborn. In Ketterdam, when he was escaping the deathboat on the waters of the city. It's not just a dramatic saying, but some kind of actual fact, dressed in a metaphor.

And his father profit? It was a foul mercher deal that led to his rebirth. He wants to get his revenge and destroy Rollins and getting rich is one part of it. So it also makes kind of sense.

I hope anyone can get where I'm coming from, it made a lot of sense in my mind.

Wylan felt his chin lift, that simmering, stubborn feeling overtaking him. "I need to do this. I've never been to my mother's grave. I'm not leaving Kerch without saying goodbye."

"Trust me, you care more than she does."

"How can you say that? Don't you remember your mother and father at all?"

"My mother is Ketterdam. She birthed me in the harbor. And my father is profit. I honor him daily. Be back by nightfall or don't come back at all. Either of you. I need crew, not sentimental nubs."

Kaz: My mother is Ketterdam. She birthed me in the harbor. And my father is profit. I honor him daily.

Nina, Matthias, Inej, Jesper, and Wylan: cringe but ok

My mother is Ketterdam. She birthed me in the harbor. And my father is profit. I honor him daily.

@livelaughlight-it-up -Kuwei, who made our lives living hell

@boomboomflutist - Wylan, who I need to keep from killing Kuwei. Wylan, if you see this, I told you, we need him alive or else I don't get paid.

Kaz and Nikolai parallels

parallel one

Kaz who was raised on a farm with his biological father and brother for the first 9 years of his life: You see I am the bastard of the barrel who was birthed in the harbor

Nikolai who is indeed a bastard that was raised by a man that isn’t biologically his father and a half brother: why yes I am indeed a Lantsov (I mean he does say he’s a bastard in rule of wolves but this is him in all the other books)

parallel two

Kaz: My mother is ketterdam she birthed me in the harbor and my father is profit I honor him daily

Nikolai: My mother is an oyster and I the pearl
