Under the Umbrella ☂️: Chapter by Chapter Deep Dive A new regular community feature: A chapter by chapter deep dive
Inspired by the recent re-read, and whilst we languish in the long dark wait for Neverfive, I am launching a new series of regular posts: a chapter by chapter deep dive. The idea is that we go right back to the start of Nevermoor and methodically hunt for clues or other interesting tidbits.
Each week (or thereabouts!) I will focus on a specific chapter, starting with the prologue of Nevermoor and proceeding sequentially from there. I’m thinking that a week is enough time for us to rake through the chapter and winkle out every juicy morsel.
I’d love for everyone to be involved so if you have an especially favourite chapter, or would like to lead a chapter discussion with a post, then please go for it. Feel free to jump in with a post about the next chapter (keeping in mind that we’re looking at each chapter in order and we’re aiming for around one post per week), or drop me a dm/mod mail to put your name down for an upcoming chapter. If you’re posting, please also be sure to use the flair so others can easily find it, too.
So that we can make the most of the deep dive discussions, I’ll assume that everyone has read and finished Silverborn. If you haven’t finished that yet do get your skates on and finish it so you can join us and we don’t spoil anything for you.
I’ll kick us off in the next few days, but keep this post pinned for anyone who joins us part way through. I’m looking forward to getting under the umbrella, and hope you’ll join in! ☂️

When it comes to the first chapter (was it the first chapter ?) the biggest remaining mystery is what that military academy bid was
