Thaddea said about Iona, “She’s incredibly skilled, and she’s had to grow very quickly. And she comes from a less privileged background to the other novices. So, she’s got really nothing to fall back on; this has to work. And that’s why she’s so quick to find the thing that’s going to move her forward, and that’s going to drive them.”

There are some twists and turns for Iona‘s character in the series and they come at the expense of some really good character development. Spoilers ahead, skip the paragraph if you are yet to see the final few episodes of the series. The turn of the actress in the fourth episode of the show was a bit hard to swallow, it was coming, in the way the character was so objective-oriented, but still, we wanted all the novices to be together. The end betrayal which resulted in the death of Jussipo was also heartbreaking considering he only found the muse for his songs, a night before.
