Beneath the surface part 2 😭😭 make it happy please
Part I
I apologize for the wait please forgive me and give me back my cold pillow.
Beneath the surface
Manon was convinced that she had endured pain so bad nothing could ever compare. Yet she was wrong. Because the moment you had dismissed her, the moment she had sensed that disgust and sadness all over you. Manon was ready to claw her own heart out if it only made it better.
She was restless and fidgety. Her orders had grown sloppy. She tried to catch your eyes but seemed as if you had become an expert at shutting her out completely.
The truth was that she had fallen. Fallen so hard that it seemed as if she was free-falling constantly. She felt alive when she was with you. She felt like herself. Because you had found a way to slip between her cracks and mend her. Make her whole. She didn't just bed anyone. She hadn't beded anyone in decades before you had come along and Gods had it been a pleasure like no other. Because she had wanted to be there and be there with you in so many different ways.
Lingering by your tent like a lost puppy for a fight night in a row she waited for you to return. Manon had seen how badly her stupid words had affected you. Your eyes had dimmed. Your anger turns lethal on the battlefield. But you had turned into a shell of a human. No wicked smiles. No playful jokes. "Don't even think about it", your voice made the wing leader flinch as she turned around, "I don't want to hear a single word coming out of your mouth".
"Well, too bad because I have a lot to say", Manon stepped closer to you, blocking your way. "Oh? What would that be? That now that you're horny I'm once again important to you?", you chuckled bitterly, moving to outstep her but Manon quickly wrapped her fingers around your upper arm, "I miss you. Not sex with you but you", she said firmly, "The moment after when you hold me and I just feel... calm", Manon muttered.
You stepped back slightly, "I won't fall for this", you breathed, "I have more respect for myself than you think". Manon shook her head, "Please, I never... I have never", her voice died down as emotions slowly took over her. You could see the struggle of voicing herself as she picked through words in her mind. "Y/n I had never truly liked anyone. And...", she breathed. "Now this is a low blow don't play with my emotions like that", you shook your head, turning away from her.
But Manon simply grabbed your shoulder turning you to face her, crashing her lips to her. Heat flooded her body. And once again you got reminded how powerful it felt having her in your arms. How many sparks? How many butterflies? Manon cupped your face deepening the kiss before you both pulled away breathless. "Tell me that you feel it too", she rasped out, "Because I'm so head over heels for you and it terrifies me".
You reached out for her, brushing your fingers through her long white hair, "Manon". She pressed her forehead to hers, "Please, forgive me, please let me make this better for us", Manon breathed. You slowly nodded your head, "Just be gentle with my heart, Man...", "I'll prove it to you, I'll never break it", she muttered, kissing you once more.

I’m will never stop thinking about how if rhysand and the IC were in TOG universe they would all be antagonists and hated by Aelin and her court
The whole plot would be about Aelin trying to save Feyre, Nesta and Elain from Rhysand and his bat bros and fix the Hewn City up
Manon would kill the bat bastard for not doing anything for the women Illyria

Manon: Elide, your husband, Lorcan, is a loser, Aelin and I both agree.
Elide: You do?
Aelin: No, uh-uh, I never called him a loser!
Manon: Sorry, I’m the one who called him a loser. Manon: Aelin called him a clown.

Aelin Galathynius created Prythian. She is the Mother.
This theory contains TOG, ACOTAR and (slight) CC SPOILERS!
Many, many thousands of years ago, Amren recalled that a huge "rip in the sky" appeared in her home world. Out of curiosity, Amren flew through this rip, and landed in Prythian.
Tumblr media
This perfectly aligns with Aelin ripping a hole in the sky of the God's realm. This is the most concrete piece of evidence that Throne of Glass took place in the past (something I have already theorised about).
Tumblr media
However, and most interestingly, it is suggested that Amren entered Prythian when it was being made - when the world itself was beginning to form.
If Aelin indeed created the "rip" in the sky that Amren went into - the timing suggests that Aelin's actions led to the creation of Prythian.
Tumblr media
And, although subtle, we actually have proof of this.
Recall that Wyrd was described as the thing that "keeps the realms apart:"
Tumblr media
But, when Aelin shut the gates between worlds at the end of Kingdom of Ash, we have this VERY important (and often overlooked) clue:
Tumblr media
Aelin caused for all worlds to overlap.
I believe this is how Prythian was born.
The Cauldron.
According to the mural that Feyre observes, Prythian was created by a female with "glowing, slender hands," who tipped a fluid with "strange symbols" (wyrdmarks), from the Cauldron, onto the land.
I believe this was Aelin - perhaps not literally, but metaphorically.
Tumblr media
But this begs the question; what exactly is the Cauldron?
For starters, we know that the Cauldron has 3 "legs". These legs provide most of its power (and this is an important clue!)
This is very similar to the 3 wyrdkeys in TOG; the very 3 wyrdkeys that Aelin embedded into her arm (and subsequently her blood) when she sealed the gates.
Aelin then gave over the 3 wyrdkeys, and all of her fire power to forge the new lock. It is this very power that is the essence of the Cauldron. 
As evidence of this, when we see the Cauldron's power in ACOWAR, it presents as Aelin's own power; "raw fire power," capable of burning an entire army to ash within seconds.
The Dread Trove.
The Cauldron also created the Dread Trove - and this is another very important clue.
The Crown.
The Crown can control and influence people - just like the wyrdkeys (and subsequent wyrdcollars and rings controlled people in TOG).
The Mask.
The Mask can control the dead - just like the wyrdkeys could create armies of dead people; a power Erawan desperately wanted.
Tumblr media
The Harp.
The Harp can open portals to different locations, and potentially different worlds and realms. This is one of the key features of the wyrdkeys.
In fact, it was said the 3 wyrdkeys were needed to create a wyrdgate.
The Cauldron has 3 legs (that I believe are the 3 wyrdkeys Aelin yielded to seal the lock).
Thus, the Cauldron *IS* a wyrdgate.
Tumblr media
Cauldron = Wyrdgate.
As further proof of this, to "nullify" the Cauldron, Amren had to:
give up her current body,
forget about those she loved,
and unleash her power of "light and flame."
Which is just like Mala Fire-Bringer; who also had to:
give up her current body,
forget about those she loved, (in fact, both her and Amren both warned that they will no longer "remember" their loved ones),
and unleash her power of "light and flame", in order to forge the lock, and shut the wyrdgate.
Tumblr media
But, recall that when Mala's plan didn't work, Aelin (and Dorian) had to give all of their power to reforge a new lock, in order to seal and shut the wyrdgate once more.
This is just like Rhys in ACOWAR; in order to re-seal the Cauldron, he had to give over every inch of his power.
In fact, when Aelin and Dorian's power were used together, and in combination with the wyrdkeys, it was described as "creation and destruction," and the "beginning and the ending."
These are the exact same terms used to describe the Cauldron - and I'd argue the exact same *power* of the Cauldron (but more on that later).
And, as a side note - at one point, the Cauldron's power was even described as "fire and ice"... (ring any bells?)
The Lock.
Further, when Aelin and Dorian were sealing the wyrdgate shut, they had to make a "lock."
The lock they made was the Eye of Elena. This is perhaps the most important clue in this theory; that this very symbol and mechanism allowed for the creation of the Cauldron.
Tumblr media
However, we learn in later TOG books that this symbol isn't just known as the Eye of Elena, but also as the "Eye of the Goddess." This is because it was first a sacred witch symbol, created by Rhiannon Crochan.
Crochan means Cauldron.
Additionally, the Eye of the Goddess was named as such, as it is said to represent the Three Faced Goddess (that the witches worshipped), and her three counterparts;
The Maiden
The Mother
The Crone.
It's for this reason that I believe the Cauldron was created from the Eye of Elena, or the Eye of the Goddess lock, as it too follows the principles of Maiden, Mother, and Crone.
We see clear evidence of this when Elain, Nesta and Briallyn were thrown into the Cauldron.
Elain was made into the Maiden.
The Maiden often symbolises innocence, beauty and blossoming.
In TOG, the Maiden was represented by the Blueblood witches, who were the "oracles, mystics, and zealots."
Elain was made into a Seer.
The Bluebloods also required more iron (as it was said that they were the most powerful), and it is rather interesting that Elain (presumably) wears an iron ring.
Tumblr media
Nesta was made into the Mother.
The Mother often symbolises maturity, responsibility, and power.
In TOG, the Mother was represented by the Blackbeak witches, who were the warriors - known for their "obedience, discipline, and brutality."
Considering the multiple references to Nesta making a fine General in an army, as well as the parallels between Manon's thirteen, and Nesta's Valkyries - it makes perfect sense.
Tumblr media
Briallyn was made into the Crone.
She was, quite literally, turned into an old woman by the Cauldron.
Tumblr media
Creation and Destruction.
Knowing that that the Cauldron was made from the Eye of Elena/Eye of the Goddess, as well as the 3 wyrdkeys, as well as Aelin's own power that she donated to forge the lock, and seal the gate - this can explain Nesta's own power.
Nesta's power manifested as "cold" flame, one that seemingly burned without a trace.
Tumblr media
We have already seen this before;
Aelin's moon-fire,
and Kaltain's shadow-fire.
The commonality between these two? Both women were in possession of the wyrdkeys.
The same wyrdkeys that the Cauldron now possess; the same power that Nesta stole.
And, all in all, this makes perfect sense. The Cauldron is a wyrdgate. Wyrd is the "language of the universe," it is the power of both creation and destruction, life and death.
Nesta's power symbolises one half - Death.
And, it's for this reason that I believe that Elain's powers (that are yet to be revealed), will symbolise the other half - Life. Creation. (And, I also have an inkling that she will be the one to rebuild the Dusk Court with this very power).
We also know that the Cauldron loved Elain. If the Cauldron was indeed created by Aelin - that she is it's Mother - then perhaps it's no coincidence that "Elain" is an anagram for "Aelin"....?
A portal too?
If the Cauldron is indeed a wyrdgate - then recall that Feyre threw the Book of Breathings into it.
Now, Jesiba Roga possesses that exact book.
Does this tell us that the Cauldron is in fact a wyrdgate to Lunathion, and the Crescent City world...?
Knowing all the connections between the Cauldron and the witches - and Jesiba being a witch herself, it makes sense...
