Onyx Storm Theory: Could Theophanie be Violet’s aunt?
In the past couple of weeks, I received a dozen questions about the possibility of Theophanie being Violet’s aunt. Is it possible? There is clearly a relationship between Theo and Lilith, and Theo admits that herself. Many of you theorized that Theophanie was Lilith’s sister and one of the reasons why Asher rushed to Unnbriel… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 40
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. Please note that some mild spoilers from future chapters will be found here. The chapter starts with a harrowing epigraph. The whole continent is at war, and with or without wards, it’s… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 39
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. “Sometimes the best gift the god of luck can give is his absence.” You don’t say, Asher, you don’t say… And yet, Zihnal gave them lots of gifts. It was only natural… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 38
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. The epigraph is perfect. It tells us about the god of luck who turns out to be a bit…chaotic. The instant thought here is: orange dragons. They are unpredictable, right? I believe… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 37
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. The epigraph is sweet, but again, playing at recovered correspondences which specifically talk about Ridoc ahead of a chapter may have us look – Ridoc is usually not a good sign. And… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 36
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. Oh, the epigraph. The parallels between the scribes and Hedotis again! Do you see? They want to be wise, but they are not. People who consider themselves in pursuit of knowledge, and… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Read Along – Chapter 35
It goes without saying that THERE ARE MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. If you haven’t read this chapter of Onyx Storm, please go read it first. I really like the epigraph here. To me, this sounds like an Easter Egg. The fact that we use the word “trickiest” when we talk about the God of Wisdom, reiterated our… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Theory: Everything we know about Ridoc (does he have a second dragon?)
To start off with a little joke, “What we know about Ridoc is nothing compared to what we don’t.” I am not sure if you remember, but about a year ago, we got some fun theories around Ridoc bonding another dragon apart from Aotrom. WhatTheFrenchyDoes, a redditor and a fellow theory conspirator, posted that they… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Theory: Dunne’s symbol
I recently posted a theory about the relation between Gods, dragons and colours. I made a cute little table to show the thought process and added information from other invested readers too. The issue I’m having right now is that during the read‐along of chapter 30, I realise that perhaps I overlooked Dunne’s symbol a… Continue reading
Onyx Storm Theory: Do dragons use names?
Have you noticed that dragons don’t tend to use human names? There are always some nicknames. When it comes to dragons, they do use the usual dragon names. At first, I thought, oh well, it’s just how dragons are. But then, one of the readers, Emma, pointed out that, in fact, there is one single… Continue reading
