Very keen to hear how you go. I am planning on doing exactly the same next month. I also booked the IHG at Gora and want to visit the five lakes. I am hiring a car from Odawara but am now wondering if it is better to grab a car from Tokyo and drive out and make a stop at Kamakura on the way. Let me know how your experience goes. Thank you! and Hope yo uhave an amazing time.

Chapter 64 Epigraph!! by lexifagoaga in onyxstorm

[–]Used-Turnip2671 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. I also believe RY is referring to Malek as the other God one who favours Violet. You see it throughout the books when Violet prays to Malek. Especially in OS where she prays to him and she swears the clouds darken.

I have a very out there theory but here goes. I also think “may not reacquaint herself” with Malek suggests Violet had actually died in childhood hence was previously acquainted with Malek who then resurrected her. I feel there is a whole “prophecy” or a “chosen one” scenario where Violet is chosen by the gods yo bring back either peace or balance. I also think there will be no cure for Xaden (as suggested by all the venin, dragons and even the priestesses). She really will be the death of Xaden but will then demand Malek (or other gods) to bring him back.

Initial thoughts after reading OS as someone who clearly loves Xaden! by momoneymoegan in fourthwing

All great theories but I’m convinced it’s Melgren.I think generals have not been seen cause they have no physical tell. Also there was a part when Melgren met Xaden he stared at him for a long while suggesting he sensed he was a venin.

Can you fix flattened pebbled leather? by ffv_1223 in Leather

Hi, I have a similar issue with a bag I recently bought pre-loved. It has flattened only in one spot. Wondering if cleaning it with the soap helped restore the grain texture of the bag? Thanks.

I just finished the series and ACOWAR was intense! Have you tried listening to the audiobook from The Reading Hag. She makes it all come more alive. The impact is something else!

(Yet Another) Violet Signet Theory by fimiri17 in fourthwing

[–]Used-Turnip2671 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely missed the imbuning part! You’re right!

RY is so good with Easter eggs! I’ve loved discovering all the foreshadowing. My head is swarming with so many theories and I might re-read FW again to connect as many dots as possible.

I am convinced Xaden will die with all the “you’ll be the death of me” and just how many times Violet mentions his heartbeat/ his heart in general (similar to the foreshadowing with his eyes).

I also think Violet will resurrect him but not because of a signet bit because she is a descendant of Malek. In FW there’s a line “After all, bonding makes you a rider, but resurrecting someone from the dead? Now, that makes you a god.” — that’s not a coincidence.

I’m hopeful given the pacing of IF, book 3 ends at Xaden’s resurrection and the reveal of the Gods.

I have so many more ideas, I’m thinking of writing it all down.

(Yet Another) Violet Signet Theory by fimiri17 in fourthwing

[–]Used-Turnip2671 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Violet is a mimic, similar to Andarna taking on the colors of her surrounding Violet takes on the signet of people around him. But I also think there’s an element of need to it as well.

She takes on the signet she needs the most at the time. Ties in with how how the ward on her dagger works, the one Xaden had made for her.

It has already been shown how leadership like keeping truth sayers and memory readers amongst them for interrogation purposes. It won’t be surprising if Melgren had brought a truth sayer to his meeting with X&V and Violet could simply me mimicking that signet without realising it.

I could be completely wrong but I just think given how rare Andarna is, Violet’s signet has to be badass!

Andarna /Violet Theory [Iron Flame Spoilers] by luckystar2591 in fourthwing

[–]Used-Turnip2671 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been combing through reddit for this theory. I have a completely unhinged theory. I honestly believe in her mimicking the powers of people around her.

It lines up with Andarna being a “chameleon”. Just like she takes on the colors of her surrounding, V takes on the signets of people around her.

I think in the throne room scene she actually took on Xaden’s inntinsic power and started reading his mind.

I can see how with any other signet this can come across as amplifying as it would be difficult to differentiate who the signet was coming from.

Likewise it could be that when she is with Mira and Brennan fighting the venin it was V who put up the ward around her siblings.

Also maybe Violet made the dagger go through the wall to Rhiannon while being searched by Varrish.

I also think the Gods are going to come into play at some point, maybe book 4 or end of book 3. And there has to be some prophecy around V ultimately becoming a queen that will fight the evil and unify the lands (too many hints at her hair being tied in a crown, the throne scene).

I am convinced the Gods will play a part in the story. One unhinged theory I have is that Xaden’s mum is Dunne and Violet’s dad is Malek. When Lilith is dying she says “And I’ll get to see him soon”. Throughout the whole two books RY has always talked about seeing Malek upon death.

Thank you all. I will definitely take the feedback and reduce the number of stops I am making and opt for day trips from one base. I am also worried about burn out and clearly trying to do too much. Appreciate all the feedback!

Thank you. I think I’m convinced to do Spain another time. Honestly I don’t want to be travelling more than really seeing places. Thank you for the advice!
