The title says Splintered Harmony, people are speculating it being about Gwen but what if it’s just CC3 events from ACOTAR perspective? The Harp is literally a musical object, links to Harmony and Splintered Harmony could definitely mean the unease in the Night court??? And the synopsis about Night Court reeling from betrayal? Literally adds up

It’s also short, I think SJM would want to update the readers on what happened in CC3, especially from an ACOTAR perspective… I’ll hate it but still lol, that’s why it took them so long to do the reveal and the synopsis is very cryptic

I really struggle with OCD, especially when it comes to religious rituals for context, so I can be very paranoid. So this girl I know confided in me that she’s a “witch”/Wiccan, one of those type essentially and I was really flabbergasted as we are not even close friends, we live in UAE, I’m pretty sure this is illegal, Idk why she felt comfortable telling me that as I come across as pretty ”religious” but ofc I won’t dox her or anything. So she told me she was a witch and she practices “witchcraft”, those pagan stuff ig. She said it brought her peace and comfort when religion didn’t and that praying to God didn’t solve her problems but casting spells did… I mean okay you can do whatever idc, I was just shocked. She then proceeded to show me her spell set up and pictures of the spells she casted 😭 I was visibly distressed, she could see that, I told her I really can’t look or want to see that, I’m someone who can’t say no and I tried my best to be polite but I was really worried about looking because the conversation already felt like betraying God but I didn’t know how to stop her bcs I didn’t want to be impolite but I really couldn’t look at the pictures because I was so worried about it being the situation like when you go to a “soothsayer” 40 days of prayers isn’t accepted right? I felt like this would result in that, so I really couldn’t risk looking, only slightly when she put her phone in my face like it wasn’t like I could push her away, she told me it was just candles but she could see I was really paranoid, so she put it away. Ik that’s not how that Hadith works but I have OCD and that would’ve triggered me for 40 days. She was talking a lot about her spells and beliefs and I was uncomfortable but I didn’t know how to stop her without being rude, I really felt like I was betraying God and I was trying my best to be nice to her without compromising my beliefs but there’s only so much you can do, she told me how it’s just praying to the universe instead of God, she was respectful of my beliefs too despite her leaving the religion, she told me she’ll pray to the universe for me and I was like no I’m good, she even offered to cast spells for me and I was like please no I’ll just to stick to praying 😭. She told me all about her casting spells to achieve things like she got her older cousin who was already in a relationship and had a baby to fall for her and agree to marry her 😭😭😭 I mean if I was casting a spell for a guy, I would not go for a cousin like of all the people in the world 😭😭😭 I told her about my own relationship struggles and she offered to cast me a spell 🤣 I mean imagine compromising your deen for a man 🤮 like yikes no man is worth all that, she also told me how she doesn’t care about her physics exams because she will just cast spells to make it easy 💀 like good luck with that 😭. She’s a sweet person, I don’t have anything against her, I just don’t agree with her beliefs, talking to her made me uneasy and being friends with her would’ve made me feel like I was betraying God and compromising my religion and it would’ve triggered my OCD like crazy. I told her I couldn’t be friends with her bcs of this after I got home and blocked her but I might end up seeing her which is annoying but I’m not going to interact with her again and I don’t think she will either. I’m not saying I can’t be friends with someone with different different beliefs, I have close Hindu and Christian friends, my best friend is a Hindu but I never felt like I was compromising my beliefs with her, a witch who has disdain for traditional religions, especially Islam is a whole different thing. I don’t really buy black magic or these spell stuff I’ll be real, I’m not from a culture that dabbles in “black magic” we are very skeptical but I believe because islamically we are required to believe and we seek protection from sihr, so I sought protection on my way home like I don’t even think she’s doing actual “black magic” or whatever, just whatever that’s on social media probably, like those cyrstals stuff but now it’s candles and flowers but I still sought protection just in case 😭 I don’t want her to hex me like I already have more than enough on my plate, getting hexed is the last thing I need 😭 not that I necessarily believe that, I’m not even really worried about that, I believe Allah will protect me. I’m just worried about my prayers being cancelled since I accidentally saw her spells even tho ik that’s not how it works but I’m a paranoid person 😭I feel extremely paranoid when I accidentally see tarot posts on social media or when I see those “next year this time you’ll be standing exactly where you wish to be” posts or those pick a flower and you’ll get a quote posts lol, I’m lowkey insane 💀I can spiral after seeing such things

ugh hate that this is a thing again
