Nona Epilogue - Harrow and Gideon [discussion]
Two questions
1) At the end of Nona, do we finally have Gideon (the ninth) back?
Maybe I’m in denial but I don’t believe that Kiriona is Gideon, at least fully. Kiriona didn’t really seem to care THAT much about Harrow before the epilogue. Yes, I know Kiriona wanted to kiss Harrow when she first saw Nona. But Kiriona didn’t really seem to be angry that Nona wasn’t Harrow. Given Gideon’s loyalty to Harrow, I feel like she would have immediately tried to get Harrow back.
Plus, I find it hard to believe that Gideon would have developed so much love/loyalty for John after such a short amount of time.
Kiriona/Gideon saying “Get in line slut” seems a bit more in line with our Gideon the ninth and her feelings for Harrow. Also, Harrow has her black eyes back, meaning hopefully(?) Gideon’s soul returned to her body.
2) Is Alecto now Harrow’s cavalier?
Did Harrow basically fire Gideon as her cavalier since she accepted Alecto’s sword? Even after Gideon’s protest? Kinda makes me sad tbh.
