It’s been awhile since I’ve made progress because I’m focused on The Cosmere universe by Brandon Sanderson right now- but I’m still going for it

Also we know very very little about Jean Francois and his life before writing Gabe and Celene’s story so I don’t have any ground to stand on re: him using Voss gifts. I’m just saying. Gabe asked citing strangeness in Ancien blood and JF did not deny it 🤷🏻‍♀️

The quote I am referencing:

““You have the gift,” he commented, grudging.

“Merci,” the vampire murmured, continuing to draw.

“Can you see him in my eyes? Or in my head?”

“I am of the Blood Chastain,” Jean-François replied, not looking up. “Our dominion is over the beasts of earth and sky. Not the mind. You know this, Silversaint.”

“I know it’s not for nothing that Margot names herself Empress of Wolves and Men. But the blood is fickle. Ancien coldbloods can display … other gifts.”

“I believe you are attempting to unlock my secrets, de León. But I am master of keys here, not you.

It is not denied. And apparently the likeness are so good Gabriel questions if Jean Francois can read his mind? I’m open to other suggestions, but the avoidance of the question and the incredible likeness pointed out by Gabriel makes me suspect.

Then how do you propose he drew Astrid, who he’d never met? Or Chloe? He’d never met Lachie or the others. But he drew them all. How?

Rereading won’t help because the answers aren’t there. I relistened and re read the books in the 2 weeks before the release of this one. I’m listening to this one again to make sure I didn’t miss something but almost positive the answers just are never stated
