This chapter hurts. Not in a plot-twist way. It hurts because a good horse dies and nobody pretends it’s easy.

So here’s what happened. Hamanu has been sitting in his workroom for three straight days without moving. Not sleeping. Not eating. Just writing his history and drowning in memories of the past. His loyal dwarf steward Enver finally breaks through the warded door with a loaf of bread and a room full of worried faces.

Chapter 11 is where everything breaks down and gets rebuilt. Everybody’s secrets come out, everybody hits their lowest point, and by the end, they actually have something resembling a plan.

Chapter 10 is the big one. This is where Hamanu becomes the champion, and where we see the full scope of what Rajaat did to him. It’s also the chapter where we watch the birth and end of the troll race through Hamanu’s eyes. Abbey pulls no punches here.

Chapter 10 belongs to Tiep, and it’s the chapter that made me completely rethink this character.

If Chapter 8 was a war chapter, Chapter 9 is the emotional core of this book. Abbey slows everything down and lets Hamanu sit with his own pain. It’s devastating.
