Even now, Madwa might still have a trick up her sleeve.

Complacency kills.
Speaking of which, Violetta didn't check that Madwa is really dead.

Going back a long way reminds us that Violetta was following a standing order.

In the introduction to one of the novelizations (I think), there was a brief bit about how capable Sparks draw others into their orbits, and the fact that within a few months of her breakthrough Agatha had two Storm King claimants, Baron Wulfenbach's heir, an expert swordfighting princess, and a Smoke Knight in her group of sidekicks was an indication of her absolutely terrifying potential.

That got me to wondering, though--Sparks distort reality with their mad science, right? How much do they unconsciously do the same thing? Is Violetta a more capable Smoke Knight now in part because that's what Agatha needs her to be, and Agatha has the power to make her better?

It's reminiscent of what Terry Pratchett had to say about the power of stories, particularly in _Witches Abroad_.
