Legacy of OrÃ¯sha / int_14ed6ab7	type	Does This Remind You of Anything?
Legacy of OrÃ¯sha / int_14ed6ab7	comment	Does This Remind You of Anything?: A government oppressing and murdering those who look different than them? Children seeing their parents killed by the government? Sounds familiar. Tomi Adeyemi explicitly states in the author's note that she was inspired by instances of police brutality.

SentarÃ´s, on the other hand, are adept enough to use it safely (although it still drains the maji of their strength). ZÃ©lie has to break her promise to save their lives in the arena, and she nearly dies from it.

She hates magic even more than he does and calls for the extermination of all maji while not hesitating to use magic for her own ends, and does all manner of brutal, unspeakable things in the name of the throne. It's also revealed that she's the one who hired Burners to kill the rest of the royal family to convince them maji could never be trusted, and on the eve of a referendum that would have freed them as well, making her something of a Greater-Scope Villain.

She stands down, but when he tries to cut her down anyway, Amari sees he has no reluctance about murdering his own child and thus stabs him through the heart. In the second book, Amari's increasingly immoral and shady methods for winning the war start to make her wonder if she's becoming her father. Once she kills an entire village (with her friend still in it) for a victory that turns out to be All for Nothing, she realizes that she's crossed a line and turns back.

Legacy of OrÃ¯sha / int_e407c172	comment	Silk Hiding Steel: Amari. The quiet, withdrawn daughter of Saran still manages to muster enough will to steal the restoration scroll and run away, initially out of vengeance for the death of her handmaiden. As quiet as it's kept, she's also a skilled swordswoman and, in the end, she is the one who kills the Big Bad.

Legacy of OrÃ¯sha / int_ec6b0734	comment	Mystical White Hair: All maji have white hair or at least a white streak in their hair. Its supernatural connection is so strong that even dying it can't hide its true color for more than a few days. Diviners, AKA de-powered maji, retain their white hair and all the negative societal treatment associated with it.

As she slips into more violent and immoral actions, it turns into a Madness Mantra. She stops using it after confronting her mother, deciding she no longer wants to be violent and ruthless.
