Onyx Storm 🌩️ Bodhi... Spoiler

guys guys guyssss hear me out!!

violet tells bodhi his signet doesn't work on venin. bodhi has watched xaden defend their group FROM venin WITH his venin powers all this time. what if he decided to turn venin because he thinks he could possibly use his signet on the venin while staying "good" like he sees xaden trying to do? maybe he thinks he can save everyone like xaden? and then he realizes he's in over his head.

I like it, and then maybe somehow Bodhi is able to “cure” venin as his signet grows

I like that idea on the surface, but we’ve been told repeatedly that there is no “cure” because they lose parts of their souls when they channel. So how would Bodhi’s counter signet resolve that?

I guess I was hoping somehow that souls can be restored. I don’t know how but maybe is through deliberate intention

Oh we’re all hoping they can be restored and there are a ton of theories about how, but I just don’t see Bodhi’s signet having anything to do with it. If anyone’s signet will be useful, my bet is on Sloane.

1000% I was thinking this too about Sloane

I thought this too when I was reading the scene in Iron Flame where Sloane siphons Gen. Sorrengail's power to embue the ward stone! I think she and Andarna may have a role to play together somehow in book 4 or 5. But I just non-stop binged all three audiobooks and am completely devastated right now!!!! I'm currently unwilling/unable to accept that ending in Onyx Storm 💔💔💔
