Quotes From Empire of Storms by Sarah J Maas That Will Absolutely Crush You

Unforgettable Quotes from Empire of Storms

Book six of the Throne of Glass series ripped my heart out! From start to finish, it was by far the most intense book in the series. I am so not prepared to read Tower of Dawn after all the drama and suspense. Empire of Storms was nonstop action with even more gut-wrenching twists than the previous books. Aelin Galathynius is officially my favorite character and I find her endlessly entertaining!

(Aelin to Darrow after he takes her throne)

Aelin made herself release the water into the stream before she looked
over a shoulder. “Do you think they take requests? Because I’d hand over
my kingdom for a hot bath right about now.”

“It’s murder.”
“It’s war. War is sanctioned murder, no matter what side you’re on.”

(Dorian and Manon)

(Aedion about Lysandra and Aelin)

He huffed, shifting in worry, and she hissed as her stomach tore more.
“Stop,” she rasped. “I’m … fine.”
She wasn’t fine, not even close.
But she wasn’t dead.
And that was a start.

(Manon Blackbeack to Abraxos)

Lorcan’s onyx eyes were unreadable as he scanned her face. And then
he said quietly, “I wanted to go to Perranth with you.”
Lorcan dropped the shield.

(Lorcan chooses Elide Lochan over himself)

She was not a rebel princess, shattering enemy castles and killing kings.
She was a force of nature. She was a calamity and a commander of
immortal warriors of legend. And if those allies did not join with her … she
wanted them to think of today, of what she would do, and wonder if they
might find her on their shores, in their harbors, one day, too.
They had not come ten years ago. She wanted them to know she had not
forgotten it.

(Aelin about the favors she called in)

(Aelin to Dorian about their crowns)

“That temple is my birthright,” Aelin said. “I cannot allow that insult to go unchecked.” She rolled her shoulders. Revealing her plans, explaining herself … It would take some getting used to. But she’d promised she’d try to be more … open about her plotting. And for this matter, at least, she could be. “Both for Adarlan and for Darrow. Not if I am to one day reclaim my throne.”

(Aelin to Aedion)

She had been forgotten—by everyone and everything. And still she had hoped. And still she had been kind to him. And still she had offered him a glimpse of peace in the time he’d known her.
She had offered him a home.
​
(Lorcan about Eldie)

“You and me,” she promised him. “From now until the Darkness claims us.”

(Manon Blackbeack to Abraxos)

​Tears slid down Aedion’s face as he silently sobbed. Where are our
allies, Aelin? Where are our armies? She had taken the criticism—taken it,
because he knew she hadn’t wanted to disappoint them if she failed. 

(Aedion when he realizes that Aelin has been scheming all along)

(Rowan to Aelin)

Whitethorn knew—even at Mistward—that the queen hadn’t yet stepped into her birthright. Knew that this sort of power came around once in an eon, and to serve it, to serve her …
A court that wouldn’t just change the world. It would start the world over.

(Lorcan when he realizes how powerful Aelin is)
