Iron Flame Chapter 20: The one without the warm and fuzzies

Welcome to Romantasy Chaos HQ, the Pod! SPOILER WARNING: Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, and Onyx Storm by Rebecca  In this episode, we are decoding the epigraph from chapter 20 of Iron Flame. In the years after my father died, I forgot what it felt like to be loved. Then I entered the quadrant and became the monster everyone needed me to be, and I never regretted it. But then you gave those words to me, and I remembered…and nearly lost you, too. I’m striving to be better for you just like I promised, but I need you to know that monster is still there, screaming to use every ruthless part of me to get your words back. —Recovered Correspondence of Lieutenant Xaden Riorson to Cadet Violet Sorrengail Theories we touch on in this episode: Xaden’s Villain Era Will Break Your Heart [https://www.instagram.com/p/DUqouGmgI2E/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==] Rebecca Yarros Disney Interview Reaction [https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQfflO5DUTo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==] Rebecca Yarros Plans to Wreck the Fandom [https://www.instagram.com/p/DVRAwXKkcz3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==] Join us as we explore the deeper themes and hidden meaning of the Iron Flame epigraphs in less than 8 minutes.
