having read the legends of the first empire before this series I'd say this was still very satisfying. I'd love to see the stories in this universe that are set to the futures of where this story ends. Particularly Royces future, the Elves, something tied to Siri and/or the gods of Elan would be fun to read. The magic system is slightly boring where everything just convieniently tends to happen with the help of magic if there is no other way forward. There sometimes is a feel of having to fit every fantasy trope in the world in this series and the story at times has such YA feel, that is enfuriating, but the plot works, the world building works, the characters work. A classical case of “why am I reading this” turning into a page turner.
I'll be back perhaps in this year in this world with the rise and fall books
