At the same time, "taking reflection" is similar to something like taking communion. Intentionally and privately viewing your reflection is seen as a holy act to clear the mind

In Saintfire, Thahira's weapon is her breath made magic through sacrifice.

Daud's is a sword, though he goes through three: The first is humble and hand-forged, the second the glass sword of a desert assassin, and the third the legendary crystal blade of a saint.

P.S.: his inspiration came from the question "what if Killua Zoldyck didn't escape his family until he was much older and even more jaded?" Iykyk

He's remarkably funny, affable, and kind for what he's lived through, and acts as the biggest ally to my MCs throughout their gravest challenges

I... love him a lot. Very dear character to me!

Caeus was the King's assassin until the job broke him, and he willingly spent six years as a prisoner in the royal fighting pits

Throughout the second half of the book, he learns (or relearns?) that he's more than a broken weapon when he joins the MC's found family

25. Oh! I love this prompt. Gnosticism (esp valentinian) is a MASSIVE influence on the philosophy, religion, and magic of this book.
26. I did my best to be historically accurate to 12th-13th century Spain (and Gujarat India, for Thahira's 'backstory')
