Hello!
First of all, I thank you greatly for giving this story a chance to be heard and for your time.
I know we all have a love/hate relationship with Tamlin, High Lord of the Spring Court. I am in no way negating what he did to Feyre or condoning it. I mean, this man literally allied with Hybern. It was in a good gesture to get her back but still. Hybern is a true low that got her sisters dunked in the cauldron. Again, I'm not saying Tamlin sort of somewhat doesn't deserve where he's at now.
But, I simply do not agree with how he's been dealt with since his initial beatification in the original ACOTAR novel.
ACOFAS was my breaking point and the heartbreak from how he spent his solstice really ate at me.
Maybe it's because I'm partial to the bad guy or maybe it's also due to my interest in psychology, but when you look at this broken wreck of a man I see a lot of signs of clinical depression, PTSD, and severe underlying childhood trauma that I want to try to bring healing to.
So yes, I know he can be called a 'tampon' and OG feminist Rhysand takes the cake, even in my heart, in terms of best male in the series (not excluding the other two bat boys of the series either...). I just wanted to give him a shot at redemption while trying to assuage the crumpling sadness and ruin that Feyre left his court in.
Bare with me. I might even change your mind about him...I say with the tiniest amount of hope in my heart.
Enjoy the story as it unfolds from the gyri of my brain and onto paper. Er well...the internet.
Best,
M
