Okay, I really do love all four of these characters, but Daja… she is my everything right now, and y’all have no idea how excited I am to read\u00c2\u00a0her<\/em> book, and I’m going to explode. LET THE PREDICTIONS BEGIN.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

As is tradition ’round here, let’s go over my predictions for the last book.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. We wil travel to another school\/university of magic at some point!\u00c2\u00a0Apparently, I can’t even spell the word “will” correctly. But nope!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. The group will try to go to the Summersea markets again.\u00c2\u00a0No, but they were almost sent to Summersea. Still doesn’t count, though.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Daja will be forced to interact with a Trader at some point, and the experience will be negative.\u00c2\u00a0I’M SAVING THIS PREDICTION FOR THE NEXT BOOK.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Sandry will be able to successfully use a loom without mistakes by the end of the novel.\u00c2\u00a0Technically? That happens towards the end of Tris’s Book, right?<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. We will learn more about Niko\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s backstory\/history!\u00c2\u00a0Nope.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. We will also learn more about Moonstream.\u00c2\u00a0Nope.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  7. Rosethorn will get into a huge fight with Dedicate Crane.\u00c2\u00a0Nope, but I wrote fanfiction for a holiday card where she got drunk with Crane and sang drinking songs with him. BETTER.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  8. Briar will become friends with Dedicate Gorse. HEY, THIS TOTALLY COUNTS<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n
  9. Tris will teach Briar how to read. I expected this book to take place over a longer period of time than it did, so this technically isn’t right?<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n
  10. There\u00c2\u00a0will<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0be a central conflict that we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll learn of early in the book.\u00c2\u00a0HAHAHAHAHAHA<\/strong><\/li>\n
  11. We will see one of the characters develop romantic feelings towards someone! Whoa, I was wrong!<\/b><\/span><\/li>\n
  12. Little Bear will be super cute the whole time.\u00c2\u00a0YES.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  13. BACKSTORY OF LARK.\u00c2\u00a0Nope.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  14. BACKSTORY OF ROSETHORN\u00c2\u00a0nope.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  15. JUST GIVE ME MORE OF THE TWO OF THEM.\u00c2\u00a0THANKFULLY, THERE WAS.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  16. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what else to do here, y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122all.\u00c2\u00a0You have no idea.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  17. Frostpine and Daja will be great?\u00c2\u00a0YOU HAVE NO IDEA.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  18. She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll learn to use a forge! THAT\u00e2\u20ac\u2122S SOMETHING I CAN PREDICT.\u00c2\u00a0Sort of??? She’s still learning.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  19. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know, y\u00e2\u20ac\u2122all, THIS IS REALLY DIFFICULT.\u00c2\u00a0you have no idea<\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n
  20. So, this is Tris\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s book, so it will mostly follow her? IDK??? She\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll progress in her training???\u00c2\u00a0This is a garbage prediction and totally correct<\/strong><\/li>\n
  21. I AM SCARED.\u00c2\u00a0AS YOU SHOULD BE.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Now, I swear I’m not trying to artificially fill my predictions, but there’s a lot of these I’d like to re-use for the next book because they are actually REALLY GOOD. So let’s go!<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Daja will interact with a Trader at some point in the novel.<\/li>\n
    2. IT WILL NOT BE A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE.<\/li>\n
    3. Niko backstory!<\/li>\n
    4. Moonstream backstory!<\/li>\n
    5. Rosethorn backstory!<\/li>\n
    6. Lark backstory!<\/li>\n
    7. We will see Niko’s lessons with Tris that help her learn control.<\/li>\n
    8. The bulk of the book will follow Daja as she learns to use a forge properly.<\/li>\n
    9. FROSTPINE BACKSTORY. Bonus points if it involves marrying ME.<\/li>\n
    10. I think we’ll see some sort of acknowledgment of what happened in\u00c2\u00a0Tris’s Book<\/em>, namely in the form of construction at Winding Circle.<\/li>\n
    11. I think\u00c2\u00a0Daja’s Book<\/em> will take place very shortly after the events in\u00c2\u00a0Tris’s Book<\/em>.<\/li>\n
    12. We will get to see inside a new place within Winding Circle.<\/li>\n
    13. We’ll get another scene in Summersea.<\/li>\n
    14. Daja’s closest friend throughout the book (aside from Frostpine) will be Sandry.<\/li>\n
    15. Shriek will learn to fly, but will not permanently fly away from Discipline.<\/li>\n
    16. Romance?\u00c2\u00a0Romance<\/em>. I don’t care who it’s between, IT HAPPENS.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Onwards I go to have myself destroyed by this series.<\/p>\n
