This was the 1st one I was able to attend and I've appreciated it when others have posted notes in the past, so I was happy to do it.
Honestly, I had never even noticed that there was an uncounted span of time between the end of KoA and TaT until my most recent re-reading when I *didn't* read CoK in between. It finally hit me that while by the end of KoA, the Queen's Guard finally has some idea of what Eugenides is capable of and will quickly come to love him, but that change hasn't even begun in the general population.
But by the end of TaT, he's apparently turned the entire population of the the capital city (if not all of the country) in his favor. That sort of change does't happen overnight. The questions remain: how long did it take and and how did he do it? I'm sure there are lots of untold stories!
