Another big step for Vin is admitting that she loved Reen. She’s finally letting herself feel, and admit, the things that she’s been repressing all this time. It’s good for her to get them out, even if they hurt.
Of course, we also get to see Vin’s abandonment complex. It’s something that I haven’t enforced too much in the book, but it was always there. Often, I think a sense of forced independence and solitude—like the one attitude Vin displayed in the early parts of the book—comes from believing that everyone will leave you eventually.
