Maturing is realising Sophie is actually so valid and correct. If my best friend of multiple years all of a sudden decided she would rather go off with a prince who she has barely had a proper conversation with and completely abandon me I would absolutely be pissed off. You're telling me you would rather live the rest of your life with someone who tried to kill you for being friends with me and decided to wage a war because you chose to be with your best friend who you have actually spoken to than someone who claims to love you after calling you ugly and bullying you?? AS IF
Also, I'm not saying Tedros deserved to be tortured but that man was not loyal AT ALLLLL. He mus not have a single functioning brain cell in his brain with the way he was turning on everyone left right and centre. Like, are you for real?! No wonder Agatha originally chose Sophie over you
ALSO, did Sophie just forget everything she did in the first book because she was literally trying to do the same thing as Agatha
