nah basically some dumbass was blaming riftan for not knowing about maxi being beaten by her father because “she would have so many scars” and implying he should’ve seen them since they sleep together so much. but the from day 1 the story shows maxi being healed by priests after being hit. SO SCARS WOULDNT SHOW UP. that’s why she never knew that healing magic could be warm. that’s why she emphasizes ruth’s magic feeling so warm and cozy. it’s just like… do y’all don’t read the fucking story that’s what i meant. be mad at riftan for all the shit he should actually be responsible for, not this. literally how could he have known like im ded bruhhh

under the oak tree fans proving they don’t read their own story bruh
