Crescent City: Asteri Deep Dive | What Powers do they ACTUALLY have? (Quite a few, it turns out!)

Babes!! We are back this week with a very exciting episode on Crescent City’s cruel parasitic overlords -  The Asteri! We’re diving deep on the Asteri’s powers, investigating why we never see them wield the Trove, and finally getting to the bottom of why Hesperus and Vesperus are both called the Evening Star. Plus, in our Maasverse section, we break down the different types of world walking we’ve seen across the Maasverse, question if there’s a drop in Erilea, and ponder who Rigelus might have disguised himself as. So if you’ve ever wondered why the Asteri on Midgard seem so much weaker than the Asteri on Prythian, tune in to this week’s episode to find out!NOTE ON SPOILERS: This episode will have spoilers for both ACOTAR and Crescent City. If you have not read every book in both the A Court of Thorns and Roses and Crescent City series, beware! We will also have a section at the end for full Maasverse spoilers, including Throne of Glass - but we will include a spoiler warning in the episode for that!The best way to support the show is by purchasing a monthly membership on Patreon.
