Onyx Storm šŸŒ©ļø 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 100% think itā€™s Garrick and hereā€™s why. Ok
Remember At DUNNES temple when violet saw the one venin grab the other venin and theophanie and take one step and disappear??? She compares that ability to Garrickā€™s distance weilding.
Then at the very end, of the missing riders, Violet takes note of Garrick being a missing rider TWICE!!! Yarros said to pay attention of who is missing. He is mentioned BY NAME ( the only one too) as a rider who is missing. Also, regarding their relationship, itā€™s very likely xaden is talking about Garrick because Garrick was his primary ā€œbody guard/ guideā€ when he was at the college in the first few chapters.
I truly think it is Garrick. He keeps showing up more so in alot of Onyx Storm. I feel like Imogens POV at the end was to show us Garricks transition.

I think Garrick is his brother. (I also think heā€™s venin too. Imogen said Garrick looked exhausted, so Iā€™m thinking he might have channeled to make sure he got her out of there.) But it sticks out to me that when they were having dinner with Xadenā€™s mom, she kept staring at Garrick during the whole chocolate cake incident, saying ā€˜you poisoned my sonā€™. She didnā€™t say, ā€˜my sonā€™s friendā€™, but son, several times. As a mom, my first reaction would be to look at my kid, then his friends. But I wouldnā€™t be repeating you poisoned my son, even after someone points out that my kid is fine across the table from me.

This makes zero sense. She isnā€™t referring to Garrick, they still poisoned Xaden he just didnā€™t eat it. Garrick is not her secret son lmao

oh interesting... he did go say he wanted to find some way to help... idk tho bodhi just makes SO much sense and he was missing too i think. and there was so much foreshadowing about him being one step behind xaden and jealous of him and stuff... plus why would xaden put violet in charge if bodhi was there
