Defiance comes with a price, and Celaena is suffering the consequences for freeing those slaves. After giving her a thorough beating for disobeying him, Arobynn sends Celaena to the Red Desert to practice disciple and hone her craft with the Silent Assassins. But they have their own problems there. The local army is trying to get rid of them, and it seems someone on the inside is helping them.Celaena struggles adjusting to her new environment. She's no longer special because she's no longer the only female assassin in the house. Her cockiness takes a big dose of humility, because her title of Adarlan's Assassin doesn't mean much there. But she also finds peace there. For the first time since becoming an assassin, Celaena feels that being an assassin and being vicious didn't have to go hand in hand.Best scene: Stealing the horses.
