I have thoughts about Jesiba + ToG + CC + ACOTAR Genealogy
So Bryce can teleport
Cormac can teleport and do fire stuff & Shadow Stuff
Aelin can do fire stuff
Fenrys can teleport
Bat Boys can do shadow stuff
The Prime Wolf calls Bryce a Wolf in CC1
Cormac is tan and blonde (So are Fenrys & Aelin)
So perhaps Aelin's babies got with Fenrys' babies and 15,000 +/- years later Cormac is born.
Perhaps Bryce is the result of babies from Elain and Lucien?
(btw IRL theres an Irish figure called Lugh. A member of the Tuatha Dé Danann, a group of supernatural beings and since the Victorian era he has often been considered a sun god, similar to the Greco-Roman Apollo. )
Lugh kinda sounds like Lucien. Helion is HL of the Day Court with Sun symbols being his thing. Helion is Luciens bio-daddy. Helion can winnow (teleport) and do Light Generation stuff.
Lucien has red hair. Helion has amber eyes and black hair. Lucien hailed from the Autumn Court even though he is technically both Day & Autumn. Bryce and her Bio-daddy (Einar - Autumn King) both have red hair and Amber eyes.
I came across an old article that was describing the plot of the first book and it specifically said Bryce is half Sidhe, Half Human. So I went down a rabbit hole looking up Sidhe. My top hit was "is the Irish name for a supernatural race in Celtic mythology...They are said to descend from the Tuatha Dé Danann**...**In the Irish language, aos sí means "people of the fairy mounds", as "sídhe" means Otherworldly mounds or hills."........kinda like Ruhn Danaan.
also found this: "In Homer, the term Achaeans is one of the primary terms used to refer to the Greeks as a whole. It is used 598 times in the Iliad, often accompanied by the epithet "long-haired". Other common names used in Homer are Danaans), and Argives"
Ruhn is Rhysand's doppleganger according to Bryce. Ruhn and Rhysand both have the Daemati & Shadow Stuff ability though Ruhns is not as developed as Rhysdands. Ruhn got his shodow gifts from his mom, so it's safe to assume she also passed along the Daemati (aka telepathy) ability as well.
Plus Feyra did this in ACOMAF " Rhys reached for me, but I unleashed my power, a flash of that white, pure light, all that could escape with the damper from the king’s spell....But there, deep within Day’s light … I gleaned it. A purifying, clear power. Cursebreaker— spellbreaker. The light wiped through every physical trapping, showing me the snarls of spells and glamours, showing me the way through … I burned brighter." So that kinda sounds like Bryce's starlight.
Theres also theories that Nyx ( the OG that baby Feysand is named after) is Theia's daughters are LAdy Helena and a second unnamed daughter who also have the starborn gift. So perhps Nyx stayed in Prythian having the starborn gift and truth teller in her possesion. Meanwhile Theia and Helena went through the rift to Midgard with the Starsword aka Gwydion. Now that the knife and sword are together again there people (in Midgard) can be free.
Lastly...
I also theorize connections between Fenrys in ToG and Danika Fendyr's wolf surname.
At the end of Kingdom of Ash Fenrys offers to go explore other lands. Perhaps he ends up being an ancestor of Danika's blood line or crosses the rift and starts the first of the wolf shifters line in Midgard.
At the end of Kingdom of Ash, Aelin tears a hole in the sky of the world all the old mean gods return to before she shuts the gates, dips out, passes by Rhys and Feyra and lands in her own world.
Okay my brain is fried at this point. This is still me working out who is on the cover of CC3. I'm guessing its Jesiba and she has something in her collection that was the fourth still missing item from the dread trove "age-worn bone". That or Jesiba figures out that Luna's Horn is the "age-worn bone" fourth dread trove item. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
PS:
Jesiba has cropped ash-blond hair and pale gray eyes which gleam with glittering magic. Her face is young and wise, bedroom-soft yet foreboding
Manon is an extremely beautiful witch with alabaster skin, long, moon-white hair, and eyes the color of burnt gold, can maintain a youthful appearance and prevent physical aging
Dorian figured out how to shape shift into any animal.
Perhaps Jesiba's ability to turn people into animals is because she is a descendent of Manon and Dorians progeny.
PSS: I think Amren is a Vampyr or a Wraith from Midgard that came to Prythian through the rift and thats why she can speak the ancient language of the Fae, of the Starborn. Because Amren was around before Theia and Helena dipped through the rift and landed in Midgard. Then Theia (first starborn fae in Midgard) taught her heirs this language that Bryce now considers ancient because its 15,000 years old.
