S12 Episode 2 - Commtiment (The Raven King)

Marginalia Pod

What does commitment mean to you? It's a big theme and there's a lot to work with in chapters 7-13 of The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater.

In this section, we are introduced to the Laumonier triplets, one of whom happens to be Piper Greenmantle’s father. The Gangsey take Orphan Girl to Cabeswater to live with Aurora, for lack of any better options. Blue faces the reality of a grim future without Gansey & without the ability to travel the world like she wants to. Gansey has a panic attack at Raven Day; Henry Cheng shows up to save him. Adam’s hands and eyes, in service to Cabeswater, no longer seem to be completely under his control. Something sinister is happening to their beloved wood…
