Also: Walther was AWESOME. I wanted to trust him right from the start, he was so great, and so thank you for introducing him.
I really, really appreciated the way that you've been realistic about Raysel and Luna's emotional states and the effects of abuse throughout the whole series.
I don't mean this as a spoilery question, so feel free to ignore it entirely, but this volume made me think that if you ever offer a series of explanatory posts, that I'd like one on how people know about different races in faerie. I remember you touching on this briefly in the post about fae marriage and interbreeding, but I was curious about how it would happen that Oberon would create a race (well, create one member of it, if Amandine's the only one, which I suppose isn't guaranteed), and who would know of it. All the Firstborn? Firstborn who are smart like the Luidaeg, but not crazy like Blind Michael?
That's not meant as a criticism, by the way. I trust that I'll understand more about it in the future, and I understood enough that I was curious, rather than confused in this volume.

The Firstborn talk to each other. Blind Michael and Acacia both knew. Read their dialog to Toby carefully. :)
