Confession: I finished this book and immediately picked up the next one. I'm not sure what else to say here.

His allegiance should be to Tabini, wholly, unequivocally. An ateva would have trouble feeling any other thing. A human--a human was hardwired for ambivalent loyalties. It made a human particularly good at the job he did for Tabini. But it made relationships a little chancier, and led, sometimes, to dangerous misunderstandings.

I had the thought, somewhat early in my reading of this series, that I wanted to see Bren basically on his own. No Ilisidi. No Geigi. No Tabini to pull him out of the fire.

My wish is granted.
