William speaks with Amaranthus in Outlander Book 9, Chapter 125.

There is a lot and very little going on in Outlander Book 9, Chapter 125. This is one of those chapters that focuses on events going on around the characters.

This chapter involves a lot of revisiting things that are happening and the events of the Revolutionary War going on around the Greys. It’s a chapter that could be difficult for some to engage in. That was certainly the case for me.

The most important thing to take away from this entire chapter is that Amaranthus can’t be trusted. I don’t believe a word that she says. And it’s clear that she is only looking out for herself. She wants people to believe that she’s thinking about Ben, but so much has happened up to this point, that I can’t believe her words.

This chapter doesn’t really foreshadow too much, though. It’s all about moving the Revolutionary War forward and bringing up the topic of Ben. I’ll get to my thoughts on that in the foreshadowing section.

As for the adaptation, I don’t really see this chapter being used in full. There isn’t all that much of a need for it, especially as I don’t suspect Hal will even be involved in Outlander Season 7B or Season 8. I’ll get to my thoughts on that in the adaptation section.

Let’s dive into Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone Chapter 125.
