In chapters 1-5 we get a brief description of both of what seems to be the main characters, Kunal and Esha. In this part, we learn how Kunal is the top warrior in the Blood Fort and Esha who possesses to be a lost trader when meeting Kunal is really part of the Cresents an elite rebellion group trying to take down the pretender king who runs the Blood Fort. We learn how there used to be a bond between two nations between two brothers. But somewhere along the lines 10 years ago there was a backstab leaving all the lands in ruins and the two nations at war for years now. Esha and Kunal meet when Kunal is on duty the day after the truce between the two nations, he sees a lost trader Esha who is posing as this to enter the fort and kill the general. Kunal meets and she claims she is lost and he brings her back to the path leading her to where she needs to go. She then circles back and gets into the fort as he is entering behind him accessing the general. She finds him in the room already dead knowing someone tried to frame her and her rebellion group for the murder trying to end the truce and get back to war. We then find out that Esha was the princess of one of the two kingdoms and as her family was being killed she escaped and became a rebel, she now seeks to take down the pretender king. We also find out that Kunal is the gernals nephew and now he is dead as well.

My reaction to these 5 chapters were of surprise of all the twist and the turns that this society has been through and all the back stabs between family. I also like how it gives the book from two point of views from also different sides of the war so you can see what both sides are being through.

In chapter 6-10 we learn of the death of the commander of the blood fort his death was due to an intruder in the fort 1 day after the peace agreement in the middle of the night. The people of the blood fort believe it was done by the legendary assassin the viper but since we get the perspective of both sides we know that the viper yes went there to go assassin in the commander but ended up being beaten to the chase and when she got there he was already dead. But the weird thing about it was that she was being framed because a replica of her whip the thing she does the killings with was left there meaning someone was trying to set her up. We then learn the day later 1 person from all the regiments of the forts all 4 one of the best officers were all given a task to go kill the viper in the next 2 moons and if they complete this to whoever does it they will become the next commander of the blood fort.

My reaction to this chapter is a lot of twists in turns including the fact that we learn more about the legendary assasian the viper who once we royal blood in the jansa region but her whole family wiped out due to the fact of someone trying to take over the region. We then learn about kunal who his uncle and the last of his family has died witch was his uncle. So both of these main characters are both from different places but both share the same life in a way. But again I like how it gives it from two different point of views and I think the book will continue to develope good.

These chapters were meant to overall develope the plot of the book. It was meant to develop the overall background of the story as well as give the reader a little more infromation on how this book is about to go. It gives the reader much needed details about the missions each of the main charactres are about to set out on.

We start off in chapter 11 learning about the viper who has just left jansa and is making it back to dharkan she was in the woods setting up camps in the woods when just as she is about to fall asleep she hears some soliders making a camp so she has to leave and it becomes a close call and ends up barley getting away. We then switch to kunal who has just for his journey to try and kill the viper before the other 3 soliders who are on the same mission. We learn about his stugles tracking down the viper and how he cant shake the thought that the girl he has met in the first few chapters the ¨trader¨ was actually the viper after a report from a solider of a girl leaving. He trys shaking off the thought thinking he is being dumb but its funny that it is actually true. These chapters were just setting up the bases of both of the two peoples journeys and forshadowing how they are going to eventually meet again.

My reaction to these chapters is excitement its basically setting up both main characters journey and mission and it gets you excited to find out how it will all work out and if kunal will succeed in becoming the commanders succecer or will esha win and get revenge for his uncle.

# data[].attributes.body
These chapters were meant once again to further the plot and give a basis for the journey that both these individuals are about to go on and give a outline to how there paths will meet and how both of them have exact opposite goals.

We start off chapter 15 where kunal and esha have both finally met again in the forest and are being chased by a tiger. They both are trying to escape and end up climbling up a tree were they are safe. Kunal then questions esha and why she was just at the boats about to leave and now she is at the forest, she answeres his questions well and he stops questioning each other. He then tells her a little about himself and she does the same. They both like each other company. Then they wake up and esha has already left but her bag was still there and kunal sees a pin from the cresent blades one of the rebellion groups he then understands she is the viper once he sees her whip sitting inside of the bag. He sees her coming back from getting water he chases her but she had traps set out so he falls. It then fast fowards to her point of view and her running for 2 days straight in fear because now someone knows who she is. Kunal goes back to camp with him other soilders and sits there depressed because of the fact he let her go right through his finger tips, and gets mad because that is his uncles killer in his eyes.

My reaction to these chapters is shock that the author bascially let them meet and figure out who each other are and then part ways knowing this built up a line of suspense leading to now they both knowing they have to get rid of each other.

# data[].attributes.body
These chapters were meant to build suspense between the characters in the only person in the world who knows who the viper is is kunal and he is also the one who his uncle was killed by the viper. So now this has build up a line of suspense to who will come out victorious.

We start off chapter 21 with Kunal returning to camp after the whole ordeal with esha, the viper. Everyone wonders where he had been all day and night and question him. He explains a story about how he was lost and all that. They then pack up camp and head east towards a village were they all talk around about the viper and if they have heard anything. We hear kunal inner throughts about how he thinks she is working with the cresents blades and is not working a lone. The whole team of men all decide to sepreate and go there own ways since this is a compotition after all. This is a piviotal chapters because it shows the beganning of the real journey and no more of this build up but now it is time for the real story to begain.

My reaction to this chapter is a feeling of anticipation. I feel like this chapter is the start of something big and will in turn into the best part of the book. there is no more build up and all that but instead the real journey is about to begain.
