This finale is filled with a lot of big battles, and our narrator Feyre has a front row seat to all of them...from the hill she's sitting on a safe distance away. The only casualties are our monster friends, the King of Twinks (Hybern), and a bunch of unnamed and totally irrelevant foot soldiers. Enjoy the show! Part 1:...
