No one spoke, though shadows gathered in the corners of the room, like snakes preparing to strike. Nesta saw the blow land, like a physical impact, in Elain’s face, her posture. Which could also potentially explain why the shadows are protective of Elain in that Acosf scene, especially if the shadows are now tied to Elain for being granted the blade. Elain stepped out of a shadow behind him, and rammed Truth-Teller to the hilt through the back of the king’s neck as she snarled in his ear, “Don’t you touch my sister. In the bonus chapter from Az’s point of view, the shadows hold Elain’s necklace box: He pulled the small velvet box from the shadows around him…Azriel let his shadows whisk away the box.Īnd when Elain is in possession of the dagger, shadows are also mentioned, as if having been granted the blade already meant being granted the shadow element, too. But we also know that shadows can tuck away things in themselves to the point no one sees them. We already know Azriel is the Shadowsinger and that shadows speak to him and work for him as spies. The shadow element seems to be super important here. Then when she discusses it with Rhys and Feyre, she repeats: There was a fourth object in the vision, but it was in shadow-was there ever a fourth part of the Trove? All I could make out was a bit of ancient bone. But she couldn’t make out more than a gleam of age-worn bone. When Nesta first describes the fourth object she sees, this is what she notes: A fourth object lay on the altar, veiled in shadow. But a few things came up to my mind next. Then I laughed because it kinda seemed like a reach. What if that’s the fourth dread trove? And if so, Elain has already been given the object in a way.” “Some people say it is magic and will always strike true.” He gently took her hand and pressed the hilt of the legendary blade into it. “I won’t be using it today-so I want you to….It has never failed me once,” the shadowsinger said, the midday sun devoured by the dark blade. This was the quote I was reading when I got hit by lightning: “This is Truth-Teller,” he told her softly. At least, I haven’t heard about it from my Twitter moots or from azriel_elain’s intagram, so here I go. I have not been on tumblr for a while and I have not read theories on this before, so I don’t know if I’m the first person to write about it or if someone else did before me. Listen, I was reading one of my old posts and while in the discussion of the Truth-Teller scene, this idea came up to me as I read the quote. Truth-Teller as the Fourth Dread Trove Object
