In the first book, they mention Astrid having powers.... Does she really have them? Or was that just her being romantic? Will MG talk about it in Light? If this has already been a topic, feel free to merge it with another topic... :)

There might be another topic, but the most likely options are that it was either a plot hole/he forgot about it, or he will sneakily tie it up in Light.

MG realized he didn't want Astrid to have powers, because he wanted characters to be able to be important without having powers. He wants us to forget that ever even happened.

I hope he'll try to find a way to fix it in Light though, that way the series won't end with a huge plot hole.

I like to imagine that Astrid was lying to try and boost Sam's morale before his big fight with Caine. But that's just me. All I know is that MG has stated that he wants us to ignore everything he said about Astrid's powers.

Diana said she was barely a two bar, so maybe at the time MG was unsure about astrid having a power, but i think he didn't want her to have a power.. Or maybe it's her smartness oOoOoOo

oh ok thanks :) haha i was more upset about the plot hole rather than the her having/not-having powers. he'll probably sneak it up at the end of light like you all are saying hahaha:)
