Red Sister- Episode 5

Thank you very much to Martin for commissioning this episode! The last episode of coverage was when the book really seemed to get cooking, and we can see the influence of some of those revelations in these chapters. It turns out that the almighty prophecy may not be anything like what everyone has believed. Far from originating hundreds upon hundreds of years ago, it apparently was made much more recently and essentially fabricated from nothing in order to encourage the diminishing population. There's a lot more happening here, mostly having to do with the knife that Nona found lodged in the headboard of her bed YEARS ago (because we've jumped forward in time quite a bit), and finally Nona is realizing that Arabella wasn't the one that came after her. Not only that, but we find out that Sister Thorn from the opening sequence is a future Arabella. WHOA. Thank you so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!
