I wish people would stop saying Briar should be a Rebel and Maddie and Cedar should be Royals. It’s not just a matter liking your destiny or not. Royals believe that everyone should follow their destiny for the safety of all. Rebels think everyone should be free to decide for themselves what to be. Briar accepts her fate because she feels it’s for the best for everyone. Maddie and Cedar are Rebels because they think
everyone deserves a chance at happiness, whether they’re supposed to or
not.
I’m very Not agree with that : Briar is definitively the Most Rebel of them all, and how not understand her ?
She has a destiny far more tragic than Duchess because when she wakes up all her friends will be dead. Personally I also would rebel myself against that ! It’s horrible to have to follow a destiny “BECAUSE” we are asked to follow that. It’s the same for Ashlynn, who is also a Wonderful Rebel before Briar.
And Maddie and Cedar, yes I also think that if they declare them Rebels it’s by supporting the Rebels clan in which everyone deserves to have their own true Happy Ending, but after that : Maddie and Cedar have destinies which end very well, they have no reason to rebel against it, so YES I think that Maddie and Cedar are more Royals - after their support.
