Onyx Storm ’s endingmade it rather obvious that the next novel would be bleak in equivalence to its forerunner , but Rebecca Yarros ' previous comment makes me all the more concerned , and practically reassert thatOnyx Storm ’s subsequence will be especially tragic . finally , Yarros did reveal three songs from the upcoming playlistduring herOnyx Stormbook tour;Down Bad , But Daddy I Love Him , andI Can Fix Him ( No Really I Can ) — all from Taylor Swift’sThe Tortured Poet ’s Department . But as Yarros suggest , their reveal has have me to occupy even more .
When plunk into the substance behind each of theseTaylor Swiftsongs , we get a better thought of where Yarros may take the tale in the fourthEmpyrean Seriesbook — andit does n’t look like Violet and Xaden will be reunited anytime soon . The lyrics ofDown Bad , " How dare you think it ’s amatory , leaving me dependable and strand " , basically offer readers a glimpse into Violet ’s outlook in the early novel — as the realisation Xaden is gone will be crushing for her . But Yarros ' inclusion ofI Can Fix Himsuggests Violet wo n’t be giving up on him either .

Where everyone else may have assumed Xaden ’s life story is now a lose crusade , the song ’s cellular inclusion and lyric of " I can fix him , no , really I can " suggest Yarros plan to persist in Violet ’s search for a cure — even if she has to do it alone . However , it ’s the comprehension ofBut Daddy I Love Himthat raises the most concern . From the call ’s language , I ’m assuming Violet will be one of the few character to think Xaden is still a good humanity , whereas the vast majority of others will probably now see him as the scoundrel .

Nearly 40 chapter before Violet and Xaden ’s marriage is revealed , Yarros dead sets up a major plot twist with one seemingly minor particular .
Now , being so far into the series , there are a handful ofcharacters who seem potential to die in the nextEmpyrean Seriesbook , but I ’m not prepared for any of their deaths . As of now , it seems like every secondary character play an important purpose throughout the narrative , and I ca n’t opine lose anyone else in a future novel — peculiarly not Ridoc or Tairn . But , as Yarros forewarned , one beloved character will not make it . Whoever it is , their death is potential to have a orotund impact on the story and readers .

Very Little Hope Is Left By The End Of The Third Novel
Onyx Storm ’s end sees a shift in tone compared to the earlier novel , and where the beginning is full of hope , the ending is heavy with resignation . Not only does Xaden give in to his fate as a venin at the close of the novel , but another fibre is uncover to have turned , Violet miss her memories of her and Xaden ’s matrimony , and Xaden leaves Aretia behind for good .

The going of Xaden , both in strong-arm nearness and in his humanity , is resile to overshadow much of the fourth novel .
The loss of Xaden , both in forcible nearness and in his humanity , is bind to overshadow much of the fourth novel — as Yarros’Onyx Stormending suggests he will not be returning any time soon , or in a way that is recognizable to Violet or readers .
