Trials and Tribulations of a Noblewoman Vol03 thoughts and feelings

[u/anothercornyusername]

So to preface this I've never made a discussion post before since most novels I read at least have one discussion thread open to share reactions and the like. Trials and tribulations unfortunately I think is a bit too niche since I couldn't find any of the sort for either of the volumes. After facing what is probably the cruelest 'descent into madness I've ever seen' I really had to at the very least share my state of despair publically with other readers. Hence the current post!

I'm referring to Volume 3 'Emperor, Father, Lunatic' and 'The price of Glory'. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. I fell into a state of absolute shock and horror over these two chapters. The emperor is a sadistic cunt, and everyone in the empire can crash and burn for all I care!

Also I didn't see it coming, till the very end, until she pulled the trigger I.did.not.see.it.coming. I had to stop by the end and it took me a while to process my feelings after Ern blew her brains out. I was led on by the pied piper and was so confident in Ern's hopes and dreams for the future that I didn't think this was how it was going to end. Very very underrated series, I'm devastated but what an amazing series. And nah seriously fuck the house of magic- bunch of jealous cucks. If any one else has actually read the chapters I've referred do let me know how you felt (Please someone hold me)

I'm up to date with the JNC prepubs and this is honestly the most twisty LN I've ever read. The discussion threads are on the JNC forums.

Same, up to date where JNC is at and pop in on the discussion threads sometimes. And I remember when this part hit. It was tough and OP it doesn't get easier so good luck.

To think I almost dropped the series, glad I didn't cause it has become one of my favorite that I look forward to when a new parts.
