Thank you for all your comments! It was wonderful to wake up to. anyway, I think you get the picture--power is a trap and it forces her into these no-win situations, and the only solution she can ever come up with is trying to gain more and more power. this is how it goes in the show: first she discovers her power, but it's not enough so she needs an amplifier, and then another amplifier, and a special sword, and then true love's sacrifice. with alina and the darkling, it always comes down to who has the most brute strength, essentially. they're like human atomic bombs, and I just don't see how anybody can use power like that responsibly. it has to have a personal cost.
