Another possible plot twist is related to the nature of the 'throne' itself. What if the throne she's near while tied up has some sort of magical property that she discovers while in her vulnerable state? It could be a key to unlocking a greater power or a secret that could turn the tide in the overall story of the fanfiction.
One interesting plot twist could be that instead of being in a vulnerable position, Aelin's tied - up state is actually part of a clever ruse she has devised to deceive her enemies. She might be using it to gather information or to make her foes underestimate her, and then she springs a surprise attack when they least expect it.
Maeve could be a likely antagonist. Given her history with Aelin in the original 'Throne of Glass' series, she might be the one who has put Aelin in this tied - up and vulnerable state. Maeve is known for her devious and power - hungry nature, and this could be another one of her cruel schemes to gain an upper hand.
Rather than delving into such inappropriate fanfiction ideas, we could consider fanfictions that focus on Celaena's skills as an assassin. For example, some fanfics might explore how she hones her skills further, or how she uses her skills to protect those she cares about in new and exciting scenarios. There are also fanfics that might focus on her relationships with other characters like Chaol or Dorian in a more positive and non - inappropriate way.
Rowan could be one of the most interesting. His loyalty to Aelin and his own strength and backstory add depth. He might be on a quest to save her, and his actions and decisions can be really engaging. Then there's Lysandra. Her shapeshifting abilities and her complex relationship with Aelin make her a fascinating character. She could be using her skills in unique ways to help Aelin in the fanfiction.
One possible plot twist could be the true identity of a long - hidden character. Maybe a seemingly minor character turns out to be a powerful sorcerer in disguise. Another could be a major character sacrificing themselves for the greater good. For example, a beloved hero gives up their life to defeat the ultimate evil. Also, there might be a twist in the romantic relationships. Perhaps a couple that seemed perfect for each other ends up parting ways due to unforeseen circumstances.
One popular plot twist is the revelation of a hidden identity. For example, a character who was thought to be a simple villager turns out to be a long - lost heir or a powerful sorcerer. This adds an element of surprise and can completely change the direction of the story.
One common theme could be power struggles. In the 'Throne of Glass' world, power is a major factor, and in fanfictions about Aelin as a slave, it can show her journey to reclaim power. Another theme might be redemption. Aelin may be seen as having to atone for past mistakes or misfortunes. Also, the theme of friendship and loyalty often plays a role. Her friends might be trying to rescue her, highlighting the strong bonds in the story.
One plot idea could be that Manon and Dorian are forced to team up on a quest to retrieve a powerful magical artifact. Along the way, they start to understand each other's cultures better. Manon learns about Dorian's courtly life and Dorian discovers the ways of the Ironteeth witches. This could lead to a slow - burn romance as they see different sides of each other.
The themes might include redemption. Maybe she has to atone for some past mistakes while in this situation. Also, the theme of hope. Despite the horrible circumstances, she could hold onto hope of freedom and a better future. There could also be a theme of transformation, as she would be changed by this experience, either for better or worse.
One of the best moments could be when they have a tender moment of understanding in the midst of a battle. In many fanfictions, Rowan and Aelin communicate without words, just through their eyes. Their connection is so strong that they can anticipate each other's moves. Another great moment is when they share a private joke or memory that only they understand. It shows the depth of their bond and how they have created their own little world within the story.
Perhaps the character is reborn with memories of a future event that threatens the Mikaelsons. This would put them in a position to either try to change the future or use it to their advantage within the family dynamics. They might face disbelief from the Mikaelsons at first, but as events start to unfold as they remembered, they gain more influence.
