The driving force of this book, especially Veronyka's character, reminded so much of the saying from The Last Jedi, "That's how we're gonna win. Not fighting what we hate. Saving what we love". Veronyka's whole character is about wanting to save and protect everyone she loves and prevent as much bloodshed as possible, which stands in stark contrast to Val, who wants to destroy everyone and everything who has wronged her.
