Mulling Monday: Through The Ever Night

The sequel of the bestselling Under The Never Sky by Veronica Rossi will be released on January 8th, 2013. It's now December, and I've been thinking about what will possibly happen in Through The Ever Night. (In short, it's theory time, AGAIN)

So there are two information that I can rely on:

1. The summary:

It's been months since Aria last saw Perry. Months since Perry was named Blood Lord of the Tides, and Aria was charged with an impossible mission. Now, finally, they are about to be reunited. But their reunion is far from perfect. The Tides don't take kindly to Aria, a former Dweller. And with the worsening Aether storms threatening the tribe's precarious existence, Aria begins to fear that leaving Perry behind might be the only way to save them both.

Threatened by false friends, hidden enemies, and powerful temptations, Aria and Perry wonder, Can their love survive through the ever night?

In this second book in her spellbinding Under the Never Sky trilogy, Veronica Rossi combines fantasy and dystopian elements to create a captivating love story as perilous as it is unforgettable.


2. The excerpt from Roar and Liv.


And I'm sure I can make some predictions out of those limited information... even though they are not that accurate.

1. What will happen in The Tides once Perry comes back with Aria?

The million dollar question here. I can't tell the details, obviously. But one thing is certain. The Tides are not going to like Aria simply because she's a half freaking Dweller. And thinking that makes me a little angry. Come on, she is just a HALF Dweller. She's innocent. And she's an Aud, okay? Obviously she's on Perry's side. 

2. Will quarrels happen between them?

I'm almost certain about it. They are surrounded by false friends, hidden enemies and powerful temptations (as the summary says). There will be some quarrel, maybe a huge (or should I say catastrophic?) one will happen and ruin their relationship. Again it's just a theory. But I have a feeling it's gonna happen somehow.

3. Will Consul Hess find Aria?

I can't know for certain. But there's a possibility. If you read the excerpt of Through The Ever Night before, you should know that Aria doesn't want Perry know that Consul Hess blackmail her because she doesn't want him worry about her (in Chapter 2, if you are still confused). So maybe Consul Hess will find Aria at some point and reveal the blackmail in front of the Tides. I have a feeling that if that happens, this will be one of the reasons that trigger Aria and Perry's quarrel,

4. Will Aria leave Perry?

Another million dollar question. It seems like Aria will have the intention to leave Perry behind to protect him from the summary, and even in the excerpt, she says that maybe she should go. So that's fifty-fifty. Either she will truly leave Perry behind, or she will be close to that point. But either way, I'm sure Perry's not gonna be happy with it.

5. What about the Horns?

Well, that's the problem. I have no idea what the Horns will do in Through The Ever Night. It's obvious that Liv hadn't gone to Sable in Roar and Liv. So they will probably not happy with it. Perry's the Blood Lord now, so they may cause trouble in the Tides and bring headache to Perry. From what Aria says in the excerpt, it seems like the Horns knows best about the Still Blue, or they are the closest to Still Blue. Or they ARE in the Still Blue. I think they will play a big part in either Into The Still Blue or both TTEN and ITSB. But will they be an ally or an enemy? I'm still not sure about it. But I have a feeling that they're gonna be enemies.

6. Will they find the Still Blue?

Another fifty-fifty. One option is that they cannot find the Still Blue until in Into The Still Blue and finally have peace (because come on, ITSB is the last book of the trilogy). Or two, they find the Still Blue at the end of Through The Ever Night but finds out that the Still Blue is not what they think it is. That it's not heavenly or Aether-free or danger-free. I think the second option will be way more interesting. But that reminds me of Across The Universe.

I'm ready to read Through The Ever Night. Are you ready?
