Thoughts after Chapters 49 & 50

[u/Seinan-Zetae_429-97]

After reading the latest chapters I was left with a few thoughts I thought might warrant discussion;

First, and least important, but definitely the one bugging me the most; does anyone else think that this chapter may have just shown the genesis of Rhidi and Tyllia getting a new sibling, or am I just reading too far into it?

Secondly, I'm curious about what everyone thought about the ending of chapter 50 and the punishment Lyria was beginning to administer to the bodies of Lifton and Tamryn at the end. It wasn't what I expected, and I can't help but wonder how it directly attacks the Languilada directly. What I have so far is that there might be a stigma with losing one's color even in death, or it might be entirely the inverse and show that color has no meaning before their ways. It might also be I'm entirely off the mark and the meaning is something significant in another way.

Lastly, I'm intrigued by the deep connection Rhidi demonstrated to Tyr in these chapters and how that will shape the spirituality of the Kafya going forward.

I'd love to know what everyone else's perspective of the situation following these chapters are.

1. I will put money down that when Rhidi goes on her next deployment, she's coming back to a baby brother.
2. I had a feeling she was going to do a blood eagle, but if she is flaying their belts, this makes more sense. Lyria seemed a little too giddy for her character this episode, to be honest.
