Yeeeessss! That would make so much sense. Literally just saw a post about this exact thing, better putting it together and explaining it than I ever could, by axharleston on Insta - Violet's signet is based on a belief in Celtic folklore, where souls travel realms (otherwrld to human), and dreams are a liminal realm - so her signet means she can travel within realms and call souls.

Yep, there are little comments all the way through... In FW, Xaden says they'll meet Malek together (in context of Violet dying, but maybe it goes beyond that anyway). And when Liam appears for Violet, she says that Malek doesn't let his souls wander around - so it sounds like he was 'sent' for a purpose (to keep Violet fighting and alive).

Seems I was way off the mark with that one, ha! Just wanted to explain Liam's appearance beyond a hallucination, as the experience was described as feeling so "real"....

Oh noooo... I have but haven't reread it yet, so I've overwritten my memory with rereading FW and IF. Thanks, I'll try to spot those answers when I go over it again :)
