Insights from The Wrath of the Fallen
“I am not just a king. I am a man who loves you.”
Samkiel finally seeing his own worth without a crown is everything. He stopped being a weapon and started being a person.
“My wrath is the only thing that belongs to me.”
Dianna carries so much rage that it eventually becomes her shield. It shows how grief can turn into a literal force of nature.
Watching the gods scramble for power makes them look smaller than humans. Their immortality just gives them more time to be petty.
“I would burn the world to see you smile.”
The way Samkiel looks at Dianna even when she is at her worst is beautiful. He doesn't try to fix her fire. He just stands in it with her.
