Chapter 66 – Inan
Father stands in his night robes, scanning a faded map. No sign of hatred. Not even a hint of disgust.
For him, carving MAGGOT into a girl’s back is just another day’s work.
…
In that instant it hits me: Zulaikha’s death. Zélie’s screams. They don’t mean a thing to him. Because they’re maji, they’re nothing.
A message I take from this scene is Inan has seen first hand what his father is willing to do but he isn’t far enough into it to acutually rebel and kill his dad.
Think about how the word ‘maggot’ is used. This is a slur. Do we have these in real life?
there are many words used towards a certain attribute of a person.
