His character arc is subtle (perhaps too subtle for my taste) and entirely linked to the romance. Ariq is a fabulous hero who complements Zenobia and also shines on his own.Needless to say, Zenobia was my favorite part of the serial.Īll the other non-Zenobia things that I liked but that I was too lazy to organize in a more cohesive, traditional review:
And these things: taking action, fulfilling her dreams of adventure, and seeing the world, are the main part of a character arc in which the romance plays a key role, but it’s not vitally linked to it. Besides, she’s so smart and clever, that there’s never a doubt that she will make it. The recklessness of her act doesn’t go unnoticed, but this is ultimately about agency. But she’s unwilling to be a tool to manipulate those who love her, and she wants the choice to be hers.
She realizes that she has to rescue herself regardless of how much she trusts that Ariq or her brother will eventually save her. I want to be as vague as possible about events from the previous parts as well as what happens in the final four, but I do want to mention that part V opens with a heartbreaking moment of loss for Zenobia that, together with the events of the previous installments, truly sets the course of the story. But alas, I’m not a Kraken, so I have to let go, but not before I tell you that, as you can see, this serial was so good that it put me in a cheesy mood.Īnyway, let’s get Kraken (no more puns, I promise!).
The journey we started weeks ago has reached its end, and even after weeks of waiting for this moment, I’m having a hard time saying goodbye.
