Tarquin was the name of the final Roman king before it became a democracy and then a dictatorship. However this may explain why the summer court was given the Fae half of the Book of Breathings and the last High King of Prythian may have been a predecessor of the Summer Court ruling family. IDK it might be important we shall see. Because Helion is derived from the titan Helios, the original driver of the sun, and Helion is High Lord of the Day Court. Though Sarah could have just been searching for olden names so who knows?
If we look at the Norse myths the Valkyries were Odin’s death maidens. They rode from the sky on Pegasi and picked warriors from battle who were the best to be brough to Valhalla.
However, as we saw in the prison scene there were people there trapped and forced within the rock. Many people have started thinking that this is where the Pegasi came from and they began dying and then only a few dozen are left with Helion. So we now have a new legion of Valkyries and the possibility of Nesta making an eight court, as already theorized, ruling that with the Valkyries who with Pegasi could be an aerial legion to rival the Illyrians. With no allegiance to another court they could become the death maidens from Norse myths.
Ok also just rereading acosf and also noticed that Cassian and Nesta’s bargain tattoo is an eight pointed star just like Bryce’s new tattoo at the end of Crescent City.
Okay so we know Nesta made 2 swords and a dagger with her magic right? And in Crescent City Bryce told us there was a Starsword and dagger, which was then lost. Bryce and Ruhn both describe the sword as glowing just like we saw in acosf so does that mean that Nesta made the Starsword and dagger in Crescent City?!
