Sorscha

Half the court's blood passed through her hands, and not one of them ever really looked at her. The single secret she chose to keep was the prince's — and it cost her her head.

Sorscha is the quiet healer of the Glass Castle in Rifthold, from Throne of Glass — the woman who tended Dorian, Chaol, Celaena and even Fleetfoot, loved the prince in silence for six years, and hid his forbidden magic. Her execution is the moment Dorian stops being a prince and becomes something Adarlan should have feared.

What she loves

Invisible on purpose. She saw everything, and kept it safe.

A powerless girl in a cruel court, spending what little she had on other people.

  • Healing

    Mending the people this castle chewed up and threw back.

  • His secret

    She knew what he was, and guarded it with her silence.

  • Stolen hours

    A love conducted in the margins, where the king couldn't see.

  • Small mercies

    The tiny brave things a powerless person can still choose.

Her heart

Dorian

She loved him completely and quietly, in a place that punished both. The king took her head to break his son — and proved exactly how much she'd been worth.

We're Caffeine and Curses. The Library started as my design research — I can't put Manon on a shirt without knowing which way the iron teeth snap — so we keep the notes here where everyone can use them. The pages are fan-made, not official; the licensed designs are in the shop.
