Yeah, so Brauk isn't really a 'villain', but he also isn't exactly everyone's most favorite character. Especially after he mistreated Echofrost, and even ripped out her flight feathers. I honestly think that Brauk more of a brat then the books let on.
I get that it must have been hard on Brauk when his mother died, but come on. He abandon his only brother, and gambled almost all their money away. Then he used his the rest of it money to buy Kol. Yeah sure, Rahkki loved his brother's flyer, but seriously dude? You hogged all of your families money for yourself!
Because Brauk had used up all his money, both he and his brother had to live in poverty. Rahkki had to work day in, and day out to make sure Kol was well taken care of, wile Brauk flew over the jungle. And when Brauk couldn't afford to take care of his brother, and Kol, it was Rahkki who got sent away. It was Rahkki who was forced to work on Uncle Darthan's farm.
If you think about it, Brauk was treating Rahkki like a slave for most of the book. I don't know if Brauk really cares for his brother, but she sure doesn't act like it.
I feel like he cares, but that's good point Dragon. I feel like he cares, but not a lot
I think he does care a little bit, but he's also super self centered
Agreed. He acts like a brat sometimes and he just urgh! Like wth?
Yeah.
I see Brauk as a human Brackentail actually. Both were kinda bullies (Brauk was kind of a bully to Echofrost) and both seemed confused. They both made bad decisions and were mean to Echofrost, (I guess Brackentail wasn’t completely mean to Echofrost, but she still hated him like she does Brauk) but later through their years both Brauk and Brackentail somewhat shaped up
OMG your righr!
Brackentail had an excuse for being a bully, he thought he was protecting Morningleaf from Star. But Brauk doesn't seem to have any motive for treating Rahkki so badly.
also true.... LOL
In my opinion Brauk treated Echofrost worse than Rahkki. And I believe Brauk is just protecting and caring for Rahkki like a big brother would, just in a mean-ish way
also tru.... XD
I still don't like that Brauk sent Rahkki away. I mean yes they needed money, but there are other ways to get it, and the reason they were broke in the first place was because Brauk had used it all. In my opinion, it should have been Brauk ho went to work on Darthan's farm, not Rahkki.
Yeah thats true, but if Brauk went to work on Darthan’s farm instead of Rahkki, he wouldn’t have gotten Kol, and wouldn’t have been a Sky Guard rider (I can’t remember what he is exactly.) But if Brauk worked on Darthan’s farm instead of gambling and stuff like that during that time then purchased Kol, that might’ve been better in my opinion
headwind for ummm night patrol
?
I kind of think most of the humans had pegasus counterparts.
WELCOME MOONLEAF!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, welcome the MB Moonleaf :D. And I think it probably seemed like that, but there are pegasi without riders, and Sandwen without mounts
I'm surprised Echofrost didn't let her stress explode when she was being beaten. With the abuse from Mountain Heard and Nightwing I thought she would cave sooner.
I have to agree with you and I actually cried when I read that Brauk clubbed Echofrost. That's just so mean
