Summary
Wanheda has bowed before the Commander, but it has not quelled the disquiet among the thirteen clans. The specter of civil war looms over them all; enemies circle ever closer. Clarke and Lexa find themselves caught in a growing web of conspiracy, lies, and betrayal that threatens to destroy the fragile peace they’ve carved out of the post-apocalyptic world—and the old feelings that are starting to resurface.

Summary
'Before you,' he said, 'you can see more women than warriors. Cowardly, unarmed, they will give up the moment they see the weapons and bravery of their conquerors who have given them such a drubbing so many times before.' (Tacitus, Annals XIV.36)
The first time Clarke sees the Head Girl she’s sitting on a throne, presiding over her dominion with a piercing stare and a crown of braids in her hair. Her warriors are spread at her feet, a multitude of them, all long-haired and wild and clad in identical brown regalia. There’s something of the sacred about her, like the crimson cloak draped across her shoulders and her divinity are one and the same.
Or at least it feels that way.
