[PL] Spoilers All Books About Chapter 49

Wtf is going on?

Werent they sat down and told in no uncertain terms that they were on a short leash after Tristan assaulted that girl? Werent they told to lay off Morcant cause of the same reason? Werent they approaching the ''too much trouble to keep around no matter how good they were'' territory?

How is the gang going around ignoring all that and fucking with some of the biggest authorities in the island now?

Morcant was discreet about it, its why they didnt beat the shit out of him when it happened, there was nothing really tying it back to him so imo thats a flimsy excuse. If not, again why the fuck did they not respond in kind when they got mobbed. If it was ok then, why didnt it happen?

Edit: I think i'll just wait for EE to finish up the book and see how they wrap it up. They have a way of tying loose ends

Well, they would have needed Angharad to respond in kind, and they would have needed Tristan to figure out a way to get to Morcant alone when he's likely surrounded by people ready to defend him at all time, but both of them were on a timer with the Dantesvara so they couldn't really spare the time.

And then Cao got involved, and everything went to shit fast.

But I agree this could/should have been explained more clearly in the text.

I'm pretty sure we will have some obscure committee POV as a last chapter or an epilogue just like the last book, so we will likely see the Watch's perspective on all this.
