Faithfully Fantasy Podcast

We’re back with another chapter-by-chapter deep dive into Threshing Day by Rebecca Yarros, and this time we’re stepping into Brennan Sorrengail’s POV. And honestly… this chapter gave us A LOT to talk about.

We’re also taking a closer look at:

Asher’s incredible amount of foreshadowing Could Asher have been using a signet or some kind of magic?
What does Asher’s silver hair mean?
Why does Asher seem to know Brennan will become a rider?
What is the connection between Zinhal and the orange dragons?
Marbh, “Zinhal’s Chosen”?
What does it mean to accept Zinhal’s gifts without hesitation?

And then there are the little details that might turn out to be MUCH more important than they seem…
The voices in the forest.
The bird references.
The similarities between Brennan’s reactions and what we’ve seen from Violet and Xaden.
The mysterious bracelet.
We’re going through it all and sharing everything we noticed between the lines.
