Rhysand looks better than I could have ever imagine …

TheA Court of Thorns and Rosesseries by Sarah J. Maas is an ultra-popular favorite among “romantasy” readers all around the world — and there’s a lot more coming. With the sixthACOTARbookbeing underway, along with the buzz surrounding the “Maas Universe” (IYKYK), fans have been excitedly tossing around theories about what will happen in the new book, includingwhothe story will focus on and what will happen next with our favorite characters.

As someone who’s a big reader and huge fan of Sarah J. Maas’s books — fromThrone of Glassto her newestCrescent Cityseries — I’m just as excited to revisit the world ofACOTARas everyone else and see what challenges, trials, and tribulations will arise this time. So, to tide over the wait until the sixthACOTARbook’s release date (which has yet to be confirmed), I decided to use AI to bring the characters and settings of the series to life based on the book descriptions.

Here’s how it turned out — minor spoilers ahead forA Court of Thorns and RosesandA Court of Mist and Fury.

1.Starting off with a place we (unfortunately) know all too well, the High Lord’s manor in the Spring Court:

2.Residing in that gorgeous manor is the Spring Court king himself, Tamlin — Tammie, the Tamster. I thought the manor was a bit small, but then I remembered he’s living alone in there anyway:

3.Next up is our loyal and candid — albeit vague — friend, The Suriel:

4.I personally would love to vacation in this next spot and introduce the fae of this court to pumpkin spice lattes, as I’m sure they’d love them. Here’s The Forest House in the Autumn Court:

5.Some people are Lucien haters, but not I! I mean, look at those luscious red locks:

6.Before Feyre crossed that wall and everything changed, here’s where the Archerons lived:

7.The resident gardener and doe-eyed one of the bunch, here’s what Elain, the middle Archeron sister, looks like:

8.The eldest Archeron sister and my favorite character for reasons I could write a whole dissertation about, here’s Nesta:

9.Summer is my least favorite season, but I’d live in Adriata, the capital of the Summer Court (all those seagulls would scare me, though):

10.And, of course, there’s the High Lord of the Summer Court, Tarquin:

11.Though we haven’t had the chance to explore the Day Court in the books yet, we’re definitely friendly with our golden High Lord, Helion:

12.Part of the Night Court, but honestly no one’s favorite for good reason, here’s a look at the throne room in the Hewn City, aka the Court of Nightmares:

13.Next up is Mor, who truly embodies the “looks like a cinnamon roll but could kill you” look:

14.How could we not include this icon of a landform? Introducing Ramiel, the sacred mountain of the Night Court:

15.OK, I always tend to fall in love with the dark and mysterious characters who keep to themselves because they are seemingly ~afraid to love~, so that’s why I love Azriel. Just saying, I could totally fix him. Here’s our spymaster:

16.Next up is our other favorite Illyrian warrior, Cassian! No other words needed:

17.One of Rhysand’s many properties in Velaris — and a hangout spot/headquarters for the inner circle — here’s the House of Wind:

18.Smart, powerful, and a whole lot of scary, here’s my girl, Amren:

19.Some people call him Rhys, some people call him shadow daddy, but many know him as the High Lord of the Night Court. In all his fineries, this is Rhysand:

20.The one and only High Lady of the Night Court is also the youngest Archeron sister! The most appropriate thing to say is obviously, “Hello, Feyre, darling:”

21.And finally, even though the Summer Court looks lovely, my heart is tethered to the secret city in the Night Court. For our final destination, we have the one and only Court of Dreams, Velaris:
