Katharine’s murderous rampage is probably the most entertaining part, but I did enjoy some of the political machinations that are happening behind the scenes. Mirabella is just keep on keepin’ on, and Arsinoe is wondering what the heck her powers actually are.After the sometimes slow buildup of the first book, this one is non-stop action. ![]() Not even her family really understands what she is doing. And after the events at the end of the first book, Katharine is certifiably off her rocker in this book. Mirabella and Arsinoe are very much in “can’t we all get along and not do this whole killing thing?” territory. Our three triplet queens are now in their Ascension year, and are actively trying to kill each other to be the one remaining Queen to rule them all.Well, mostly Katharine is trying to kill everyone. I thought the first book in this series was dark, but somehow this one got darker. ![]()

However, Hideo claims his mother might be making this story up, and Yuuji doesn't know what to believe. Rina was born not breathing and the doctors could not explain how she was alive but then the holes began to open in her skin and she was somehow able to breathe through them. Hideo's mother is a midwife at the local hospital, who delivered Rina at birth. In the present day, Yuuji meets up with his friend Hideo. Yuuji saw that his grandfather's body had become completely hollowed out with holes like Rina's but his parents told him he imagined it. One day, after seeing her appear, he suddenly has a memory of when he was a young child and his grandfather died. Her family's garden is completely overgrown, and on the rare occasions Yuuji sees her outside, she will point at the bushes and giggle. Yuuji has also observed that her skin is full of deep holes everywhere. Rina is regularly visited at home by a doctor, but his visits cause her to become extremely agitated. She screams in terror that there are bugs swarming all over her, although her mother says it's a hallucination.
