This is How Firstlife Ended

In case you need a refresher before reading the sequel!

Many Ends is connected to Myriad and Ten’s crazy aunt can tell the future. The song that she and Ten always sings is a series of instructions on how to get to Myriad through Many Ends. Ten somehow manages to die and come back THREE EFFING TIMES in the book, and the third time (when her aunt STABS HER IN THE NECK AND MURDERS HER) is when she discovers that Myriad is connected to Many Ends. She saves two people and they make it to some weird middle ground place where they have the ability to sign with either Myriad or Troika, and they signed with Troika.
Myriad has apparently known all along that they are connected to Many Ends and that’s why they sometimes say “they’re better off dying unsigned than dying signed to Troika” because they know they have a way of getting them in the end anyway.
Sloan and Killian were going to be executed as a way to lure Ten into the area so she could be either killed or forced to sign with Myriad but Deacon killed Pearl. But then someone killed Sloan (but she still has second life) and also killed Archer. It was his second death so now he’s dead dead. Tear.

Killian is going to be killed because he failed to get Ten to sign with the Myriad. He was in his shell and dying, but refused to leave his shell and be safe until he was sure that Ten was ok. She was dying, and he told her to sign with Troika because he wanted her to be happy and he knew she wouldn’t be happy in Myriad. She said she needed to go to Many Ends to help all the unsigned there and tells him that she will find a way to save him too, but before her last breath, she signed with Troika.
What the fuck.
I know.

This is How Throne of Glass Ends

So I started writing down what happens at the end of books that are a part of series. I mean don't you hate it when you go to read a sequel and you can't even remember how the previous book ended? But you don't have time to reread it! So once I'm done reading a book that will have more to follow, and I know I will probably not continue right away... I write it down.
And I thought they might be helpful for anyone in the same boat as me.
With the same books, of course.
So anyway, here's how Throne of Glass ended.

Enjoy.

Celaena was drugged before the final match. That bitch Kaltain drugged her wine. It made her see the in between world, which involved a bunch of demons and things that Cain could summon from all his powers and magic and such. Nehemia was able to summon Elena from the in between world so Elena could take the poison out of Celeana. She beat Cain because she’s a badass.
Cain tried to kill her while she was lying in pain on the ground after her win, so Chaol killed him. Take that, Cain.
Celaena broke things off with Dorian because it would be inappropriate for the king’s minion to be dating the prince. (YAY now she can be with Chaol.)
Also during the match when Celaena was basically dying on the ground, Chaol went to the edge of the ring and kept telling her to get up and it tugged at my heart strings. Chaol <3
The King told Celaena that if she failed or got caught or didn’t come back, he would kill Chaol, and then Nehemia, and then her family and so on. Better not mess up, Celaena! I will cut you if you get Chaol killed, because he is my baby.
ALSO weird stuff happening between the king and Duke Perrington. They were talking about how they were doing some weird experiment, and they were doing something physical with Cain, and something mind controlling over Kaltain. They have some sort of weird dark magic going on, which is evil and not good considering the king has outlawed magic.
Oh also Nehemia was the one drawing the wyrdmarks under Celaena’s bed, to protect her. Obviously. But I wanted to mention in case I forgot. Obviously. That’s what this whole thing is for.
Ha.
