asked:
Nyneve said earlier that Emperor Jung stopped the mass burnings under his rule. If that's the case, why was she so terrified when she was given a position on the guard? Was there still a good chance she could get burned like her father?

i’ll go into this more in the story but i’ve been asked about it once before so I’lll answer here for clarity– by mass burnings she means burnings on a mass scale. burnings still happen, but there was a period of time when the kingdom was particularly aggressive in cracking down on long haired witches – this is the period in which Nyneve’s father was killed.
