10 Onyx Storm Theories I hope the next Fourth Wing book confirms

Onyx storm Will arrive in January 2025, and the next Fourth wing The sequel is poised to significantly raise the stakes of Rebecca Yarros’ story. That’s saying a lot, like The Empiric Series is already action-packed and intense as it is. yet Iron flameThe twist ending, however, sees things turn darker for Violet Sorrengail and Xaden Riorson. And with the war against the Venin now in full swing, Onyx storm Will likely have more shocking reveals and hearty sacrifices.

The latter makes me worry about some of my favorites Fourth wing Letters, however The looming twists could confirm some of the theories that have cropped up going forward Onyx storms release. There is no shortage of speculation about what will happen next The Empiric Series Online. Although there are some predictions that I would rather not come true – like Violet’s father returning as a Venin – there are others I hope the next Fourth wing Sequel will finally confirm.

Violet’s second signet is communicating with the dead

That would explain why she sees Liam in iron flame

One of the greatest things Fourth wing Fans are speculating about Violet’s second signet as it has been suggested that she has already shown signs of it during Iron flame. Violet’s power of Andarna has yet to fully manifest. However, if it is anywhere near as powerful as her Tairn ability, it can turn the tides of the war. And given that violet is The Empiric Series Heroine, there is no doubt that her second signet will be as epic as the first. I hope that the theory that Violet can connect with the dead will come to passWhat a fascinating ability it is.

This theory stems mostly from Violet’s visions of Liam while she is being tortured iron flame, Which can easily manifest because of the pressure she’s under. however, It would be a fun twist if she actually sees Liam in Iron flame And just don’t realize that it’s real. This would also be an easy way for The Empiric Series To answer some of the most burning questions. Violet can talk to her father or even the deceased leader of Navarre to learn more about the enemy and their weaknesses.

Violet is actually a true saying

This is my second favorite theory about her next signet

While Violet can talk to the dead, my favorite theory about her second signet is, I wouldn’t even think if Onyx storm Revealed that she is a true witness. This is another great one Fourth wing theory, and it’s one that the book’s recently released blurb seems to support. The description, which was posted on InstagramEmphasizes that Violet is the only person capable of revealing the truth about the Venin and Navarre. This alone is not enough evidence to say that it is true evidence, but it is complete Iron flame Arc is.

Iron flame Puts a lot of emphasis on Violet’s need for the truth, hinting that it is stronger than the average person. This is why she struggles to forgive Xaden in the second Empyrean series bookAnd it’s also something that comes up in her other personal relationships. It pains Violet that she cannot tell her loved ones the truth. And Violet’s mother even pushed her to the Rider’s Quadrant because she knew her daughter’s need for gravity could hurt her in the Scribe’s Quadrant. Needless to say, the revelation that she is a truth-teller would have a strong foundation.

Violet’s father is poisoned

I prefer the theory to Violet’s father being a Venin

Some theories about Violet’s father suggest that he is still alive or even a Venin, but I think that would be a cheap twist yet Fourth wingBrennan’s discovery. I would have preferred that Violet’s father did not actually have a heart attack. In fact, the theory that he was killed by poison seems much more fitting for his character. There are different versions of this, as some believe that Violet’s father poisoned himself, while others believe that Navarre’s officials quietly murdered him. either way, I think it is an interesting and dark development that should be confirmed in Onyx storm.

Piolat’s father was a writer, and it is understandable that he knows more about the Venin and the secrets of Navarre than he initially let on. It would be nice if this got him into trouble with Navarre’s officials, especially if Violet’s father wanted to do something about it. This could have resulted in him poisoning himself to escape the wrath of the higher ups, or it could have killed him by Navarre’s leader. Confirmation of either version of the theory would explain Lilith’s fears about Violet becoming a writer – and It would give a greater meaning to Mr. Sorengail’s death.

Naolin became a Venin saving Brennan

The circumstances surrounding Brennan’s survival are suspicious

Violet and her family believe that Brennan is dead fourth wing, But the end of the book reveals that this is not the case. Brennan survives the confrontation that supposedly “KilledAnd, although there is not much information about how Onyx StormNaolin’s best theory suggests that Naolin sacrificed more than Violet knows to save her brother. Naolin is Tairn’s previous rider and Brennan’s close friend – although some readers believe the two are more than that. It is possible that Naolin became a Venin after saving Brennan and that he is not actually dead The Empiric Series.

This would be a tragic twist for Onyx storm To include, however I think it would expertly explain the rune on the palm of Brennan’s hand. It would also create an interesting and potentially heartbreaking dynamic between Violet, Naolin and Tairn. And it would confirm why the Venin seem so interested in Violet. While the theory repeats a Empyrean series Twist that has already been done twice – resurrecting the dead – I think it has a lot of potential to move the story forward.

The Empyrean will betray Navarre

We already know some of these dragons are not trustworthy

another one Empyrean series Theory I love – and hope will be confirmed in Onyx Storm – is that some of the drugs of the series already work with the Venin. in iron flame, There are hints that traitors have already infiltrated Basgiath War College. While readers are inclined to think they are other humans, It is possible that a subset of the Empyrean turn its back on Navarre. Iron flame Set up this massive betrayal when some of the dragons choose not to admit the truth about the Venin to their riders.

This is suspicious in itself, and Tairn notes earlier Onyx storm That the Empyrean is split on how to deal with the looming war. While this may simply be reluctance to get involved, I hope there is more to it than that. Having dragons siding with the Venin would be an incredibly interesting development for The Empiric Series, So I’m hoping Onyx storm Either continues to put the twist – or just confirms it.

Riddok will die in Onyx’s storm

The comic relief has to die for the dark turn of the story

It is a given that more characters will die in Onyx Storm; The book’s blurb basically confirms it. And yet Iron flames foreshadowing, I hope someone from Violet’s tight-knit group of friends drops in next Fourth wing book. I support the idea that Ridoc will die in Onyx storm, As he seems the most likely candidate of the core four characters in Violet’s friend group. As they all vow to survive their time in Basgiath in iron flame, It seems inevitable that one of them will break this promise. Realistically, it has to be Ridoc.

Violet is the main character of the series, so she cannot die in the third installment. Sawyer had a death scare at the end of Iron flameAnd the loss of his leg will likely keep him out of battle for a while. This narrows it down to Rhiannon or Ridoc, and Ridoc’s tendency to provide comic relief makes him the more sensible option. It seems like Onyx storm will be a turning point for The Empiric Series, Things get darker and more serious from here on out. Killing off Riddoch in the book would be the perfect way to drive that home.

Dain will die in the upcoming Fourth Wing sequel

I think his storyline could easily end in Onyx Storm

Another character many readers think will die in Onyx storm Is that your name? I’m on the fence about whether he’ll die in Onyx storm or later Fourth wing Sequel, however I wouldn’t mind if the next installment confirms the theories about Dain’s death. Dain is not the most likable character, and his redemption arc is not so well set up Fourth wing. He makes better decisions in iron flame, But it doesn’t feel like Yarros has much more to do with his character. He still needs to prove himself to Violet, but then his arc is essentially over.

And then it was said that it happened at the beginning of the life of the corpse. For you or Xaden. It would be a tragic end for Dain’s character, but it would fit with The Empiric Series Steaks and tuna. I think Onyx Storm Can easily wrap up your story, and it should take the opportunity to do so. It’s certainly better than the next one Empiran book embracing a predictable love triangle instead.

There’s a good reason for Mira’s disappearance at the end of Iron Flame

The optimistic theory is better than Mira’s betrayal

Mira inexplicably disappears at the end of iron flame, Just as General Sorrengail sacrifices her life. This is a strange time for Mira to miss, and her absence has led to much speculation about whether she will betray her family. I’d prefer if The Empiric Series Did not take her character in that direction. And I think Ann Iron flame End theory of Reddit User romancers makes much more sense. They say that Mira leaves during Lilith’s death in order to save some of her belongings.

in The Empiric Series World, it is mandatory to burn a person’s belongings after they die. However, we see multiple instances where characters break this rule. And after General Sarengail obviously knows about the Venin, it is understandable that Mira will recover any paper that can help them in the coming war. If Onyx Storm confirmed the Mira theory, It may be just what Violet needs to start looking into her father’s studies and death.

The Venin are looking for Andarna, not Violet

This fits with an Empyrean betrayal

The Venin seem oddly interested in Violet over Fourth wing And iron flame, And many readers are theorizing about what their connection to her might be. It is possible The Empiric Series Villains are actually interested in AndarnaAlthough, as she is a rare feather part and potentially more powerful than Violet realizes. They may only be interested in Violet because of her connection to Andarna. And the theory fits with an Empyrean betrayal, as it would explain how the Venin know so much about Andarna.

If Violet’s father is deep in research about Federek, this twist could also explain what he knows about the Venin. The Venin went after Andarna would bring everything together nicely onyx storm, And it would successfully raise the stakes for the main characters. It could also be a means to learn more about the type of dragon Andarna is, which was not sufficiently explored in the previous Empiran Books. hope, Onyx storm Will go there and start answering our questions in the process.

Xaden will become a villain in Onyx Storm

This would start a new dynamic between Xaden & Violet

One of the biggest theories yet Iron flameThe end is that Xaden will become a villain now that he has become Venin. This seems like a plausible direction for the story to go in, although Jack Barlowe’s dramatic personality change suggests that not all Venin are evil. It is possible that Xaden’s disposition will also change as a result of the transformation, and his connection to darkness may make it more likely that he will embrace it. While some readers will be sad to see Xaden get a villain arc, I’m on board for that to happen in Onyx storm.

After all, Violet and Xaden get together very early on The Empiric SeriesAnd they meet and overcome some obstacles due to poor communication in the first two books. There isn’t much else to do without adding new challenges into the mix. And Making Xaden a villain will introduce an intriguing dynamic between the charactersRendering their romance that much more tragic. It would also reignite the enemies-to-lovers element of their relationship that made Fourth wing So great. I hope to see such tensions when Onyx storm Debuts.
