Not necessarily; the matter has been brought up enough in the show that I doubt the comic writers would feel the need to comment on it. I also think “infatuated” is a bit much; by Sandbar’s own words Yona is his good friend, not a romantic interest.

In any event, my curiosity about the timing has somewhat to do with suspicions about Swift Foot’s father. Assuming he’s not also a new character, the most likely candidate in my mind is Chancellor Neighsay, but that only works if he’s still opposed to the school. That of course would necessitate that this take place before the season eight finale. Of course, with Swift Foot’s manipulative nature, Gladmane doesn’t seem like an unlikely prospect...
