My headcanon is that Harrow The Ninth is a novel Gideon wrote during NtN for Harrow, as a way of staying sane and processing. That’s what she was doing during the 6 months she was stuck with Jod and Ianthe; she was writing a novel in case Harrow came back and couldn’t remember anything. That she has a lot of Harrow’s memories from that time and assumed that she had them because Harrow didnt, and if harrow didnt remember all that happened that year on the mithreum, it was Gideon’s duty to tell her. So she started writing a book, and it became half way through a journal and coping mechanism for the loss, and how much she misses Harrow.
