We had fun deciding whether or not Rhys was kicking his feet with Cassian or trying to play it cool still and the general hounding we think the IC gave him for this little stunt. We also wonder lots (per usual honestly) about possible valg characters with the main one for this ep being the Weaver of course! Is she a stygian spider? Why is she just..given the entire land in the middle?

There’s some interesting subtle tensions between the characters and honestly, multiple places where we had to give some credence to possible evil Rhys theories. We are not usually huge supporters of those but these were compelling so of course we entertain them! Check it out and let us know what you think! Did Rhys intentionally under inform Feyre about the Weaver for his own gain? Does he manipulate her by scaring her about her family and sending flashes of dead bodies into her mind?
