Before she could ask For what? Zafira. Whos that? You asked for my name, she said. Altair sighed and sauntered away. He killed them.'"' . it truly was beautiful, i think the author did a fabulous job with the use of words and descriptions and such. But everyone else? Zafira Iskandar. Skies. People lived because she killed. The signature swoops and clangs of Altairs twin swords echoed in the ruins. On the morning of her best friends wedding, while coming back from a hunt, Zafira runs into the mysterious Silver Witch and gets an invitation she cant refuse: travel to the Sharr and find the Jawarat to bring magic back to their cursed lands. His face had paled, hazel eyes dim, skin coated in sweat and a smear of blood. But Deen knew it best of all. Why did you do it? Zafira opened her mouth, but only a whisper of a sound escaped.

She watched with hooded eyes as the hashashin turned away from the oasis. Nasir and Zafiras relationship was cute and I actually really enjoyed reading them falling in love with each other. The hashashin eyed Altairs path. There was nothing more respectable and dangerous than a woman of confidence. His lips parted. Rough hands grabbed her by her middle and pushed her against the stairwell wall. Even after the Arz took her Baba and spit him back out stark-raving mad. Until all he had left was his past. The words on his right arm had been inked for a reason. She had blacked out. At times, her turn of phrase was quite poetic and lovely, too. The prince. And she did blood magic so what was the price of that? They knew she was a girl. Just as interesting as Natalie's actual death is the way that it was depicted in her own mindas a passenger on a crashing plane. You dont know who I am, the Pelusian asked, her shorn head aglow. Because youre some sort of legendary creature. Youd be surprised. Nothing about you can surprise me. Hes dead, isnt he? The Prince of Deaths toneless voice rang through her ears. Kulsum was the one who had pulled him out of that endless despair. Sand whipped across Nasirs vision, and he rewrapped his turban cowl-like around his neck and head. As Zafira struggled to avert her gaze, Altair wrapped a fresh bandage around his wound. Get up, Nasir said. Yasmine flaunts her stuff and doesn't care what anyone thinks of her. Her eyes fell closed, nostrils flaring. Deen is brimming with ideas but just hasn't gotten around to share them. Deen Ra'ad (brother)Misk Khaldun (husband)Unborn child It was a weight. But the longer Zafira stared, the more she felt it: loneliness. Zafira hadnt brought a bedroll of her own. He struggled, hacking a cough as he dragged something out of his pocket. Theres an oasis this way. How would you know? Zafira had only heard of mirages in stories. WE'VE MADE it. She ducked beneath his grasp and darted out of reach, elevating her bow as the other four spurred into action. Walter, the useful psychopath, solved the whole thing. Far off, but near enough to make the hairs on the backs of her arms stand on end. He could very well be the commander of the army that had slain Yasmine and Deens parents. Nasir pursed his lips as Altair plastered on the smile that usually melted the women he I told you, I told you. She dropped beside him and searched for the arrow. It wasnt a sound she ever made.

The safi pulled away with an ugly snarl. Ogle later, princeling, Altair shouted in his ear. Sharr, coming to life. She longed for what she had already lost. It was a raspy sound tinged with surprise, as if his throat werent used to laughing, as if he had forgotten what it meant to laugh. The moon cast the hashashin in shadow, sharpening the hollows of his face. I need her more than I need you. I am going to pretend you didnt just insult me. Nasir shifted some sand with the toe of his boot, but the five slain safin and their rusted scimitars were gone, all five consumed by the island. However one of the Pelusian caliphas own elite warriors had gotten here, it seemed she would be an ally in this battle. It was not lengthier than usual. If Zafira was exposed as a girl, all of her achievements would be rejected; if Nasir displayed his compassion, his father . Or labor? And with the darkening sky, it wasnt just ifrit that would stray from the shadows. It wasnt as though Ghameq had any control over Sharr. His blade arced down again. People lived because she killed. The trio, now five in total, have to travel to find this book that will release magic, and Nasir has to figure out if hes really going to kill everyone because hes slowly coming to like them and is falling for Zafira, and Zafira has to grapple with the fact that she is the least powerful in this group but the only one who can find the book and so shes an asset and oh, shes starting to fall in love with the guy who may have murdered Deen and has definitely murdered a ton of people in the name of a sultan she despises.

CHAPTER 35 Zafira would be an idiot if she wore her cloak and fainted again, so she tucked it away with great reluctance. But youre one of a kind, arent you, Huntress? She stiffened at the word and stepped back toward the blackened corpse of the ifrit. I dont know. Altair turned to her, something like earnestness on his face. In the face of spears, swords, double scimitars, and sorcery, she was nothing. Kill or be killed, Nasir contended. Surprise widened her eyes. Maybe Ill give it a go, but tbh, probably not.

You fool. but she made it very very confusing.maybe im just stupid? Deen would have offered his bedroll and slept on the sand if he had to. Zafiras best friends brother, Deen, has been in love with her all their lives. The Hunter was a girl. When she had been in Nasirs rooms while he was at the Daama Faris with Altair.
