The sequel’s primary focus is on Oraya coming into the power Vincent hid from her. Each discovery of new power is preceded by Oraya gaining more freedom from her gilded cage. What are three examples of instances where Oraya achieved life-altering freedoms in the novel and what did these events teach her about herself?
Unlike the first installment, which included only Oraya’s point of view, The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King is narrated by both Oraya and Raihn. What effect does this choice have on the narrative? How does this impact or build upon the series’ overarching themes?
How do the fragments of Vincent’s memories change your perception of his character over the course of the novel? Do they mitigate the crimes he committed or his treatment of Oraya? Why or why not?
