Has Mab become something more? [CD Spoilers]

<< < (3/28) > >>

peregrine:
Though let's face it, there's a difference between "best troops" which are assets in the war, and "daughter" which has, apparently, an actual emotional connection.

KrelianZG:
I really like the idea that Mab's soul had been reduced to the point where it was barely a glowing ember, but recently her increased contact with mortals has fanned it into at least a weak, guttering flame. Rings true for me.

Let's just hope she knows enough to keep a lid on it and not let it burn much brighter than it is now though. I doubt she will, but it could be a rather bad thing at this juncture...

Yes? The quote specifically says that she would sacrifice every creature in Winter and she wouldn't even need to add sugar to her tea afterwards.

How far back is "recently"?

Probably slowly built with her relationship with Sarissa, and really started making an impact on her in the last decade?

It's not a big enough change that it would alter her day-to-day behavior, I think. Just when drastic emotional decisions (ie having to kill your daughter) had to be made.

Maybe it started making an impact even earlier? Perhaps that's how Nemesis got in...Mab let her heart rule her head and made an emotional decision instead of a rational one...
