Post-Book Thoughts: The frustrating thing is that the clues were THERE. It was in the last part of Harrow that we were given the clues about how it COULD work. And I still didn’t– sigh.

This is the end of part one! I think the rest I will try to split up into DAYS, since this is the end of DAY 2. Cheers!

Okay now hold on a second. Coming back to this passage and I’m NOT doing just fine.

IS this Harrow? It technically cannot be, given what we know. But also, why would it speak like…. THIS……. and not how it did in the Epilogue? Also, why would it say ‘you’re killing HER’ vs ME? WHO IS SAYING THIS? Is Harrow actually partially aware when Nona goes under? Or is this indeed (redacted) who has a subconscious stream of full comprehension?

I think, given how Harrow’s own body reacted to seeing Gideon on the screen, and given how there IS at least a partial awareness of that body’s memories, it COULD still be Harrow reacting???? Because (redacted) doesn’t know nor care about Gideon. Nor would she, arguably, speak in such a manner upon being choked out.

(I keep on thinking about this Above Thought and Below Thought thing. I think Nona is the sandwich entity between Alecto and Harrow. Because clearly there are two streams there, not one. It’s described as the two of those thoughts with her being the sandwich filling multiple times. I think there is a thread of Harrow in there as well.)

Harrow’s necromantic power includes the ability to create underlighting whenever it’s necessary.

> Mildly obsessed with how Moira Quirk’s voice for Ianthe sometimes pronounces Harrowhark as “Harrowhawk”

I listened to the first book entirely on my drives to work and I deadass did not realize it was Harrowhark until I saw it written.

Imagine my little single-braincelled disappointment when I searched the ‘GriddleHawk’ tag and found almost nothing in it. Like “aw, I really expected it to be more popular :(”

I actually ended up recording myself while I drew the Harrow/Gideon PKMN Trainer art, so if you want to spend some 40 minutes watching me draw and listening to me ramble aimlessly, here’s… an art video I guess????

Not an ask but I just wanted to say that I think that your Locked Tomb art is incredible ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you! The series in general is incredible and I’m more than happy to draw fanart for it. At the moment I’m in a small lull but rest assured I’ll probably end up doing more TLT art soon enough!
