**ACOTAR SPOILERS** In this episode, we discuss Feyre’s first meeting with the Suriel! We start with an opening question about what we would ask the Suriel about the Maasverse and then we tear the scene apart. What does it mean that the Suriel is “older than the bones of this world”? Why does Feyre differentiate between her and the part of her that is “human” here? Is Feyre seeing through glamours a bit more because people were trying to stop her? We also see some foreshadowing (hindsight is 20/20) of her being bored/trapped in the Spring Court already. Then we discuss the Kaltain theory, the High Lord’s power and the Suriel’s power (is it “truth”?) and who does the Suriel consider his “brethren”? Which family is the Suriel talking about and did he really mean Rhys or did he just kinda go with it when he sees her in ACOMAF lol. We end with a discussion about what kind of purpose the naga would have for the Suriel as we look to next week’s Chapter 15 discussion.**All our episodes may contain SPOILERS for all three Maasverse series so please only listen if you've read ALL the books!**https://linktr.ee/bookbreathingbtchqueensIntro/Closing Music Credit: Indie-Pop by Ivan LuzanFind the song here: https://pixabay.com/music/indie-pop-indie-pop-170731/Find Ivan Luzan here: https://pixabay.com/users/ivan_luzan-34614814/Episode Overview:00:00–Intro song, episode intro and summary00:30–Opening question: What would you ask the Suriel about the Maasverse??01:57–Is Azrael mateless?02:30–Nesta made her own mate bond (and general mates discussion)05:12–Aedion tangent (yes a tangent before we even begin discussing the chapter@)06:36–No one stopped Feyre from carrying a dead chicken around the manor08:56–What does Lucien think the Suriel can do to help (because why does he let her go?)09:35–If Feyre knew about the curse, would she have been able to make herself fall in love to break it?12:01–Feyre can feel the magic of the ancient forest “in her bones”13:24–Only the “human part” of Feyre is afraid right now (what other part is there??!)14:20–Feyre has interesting instincts about the “High Lord’s Consort”16:37–She’s already bored of the Spring Court19:03–She feels trapped too!20:06–Rhys’ twisted xray vision tangent21:00–Discussion about the “ripple of silence” that precedes the Suriel24:12–Suriel vs reapers from CC24:32–Suriel is burned…like Kaltain was?26:14–The FIRST watery bowels mention!27:33–The Suriel and the color white27:48–The Suriel on her influencer grind!28:22–The Suriel’s voice?29:48–Who does the Suriel mean when it says “my brethren”?30:44–Why does everyone know Feyre’s mom better than her??31:10–Is the Suriel saying her actual family or her future found family will die if she doesn’t stay with the High Lord?32:15–Is the Suriel’s power “truth”?
