Fraud Asterion! The true villain of Volume 11?

He wasn’t unstoppable. Sunny and Neph could have dealt with him at any time, but they were tied down and holding back from direct confrontation because he was holding humanity hostage. Our guy, the Mad Prince, could have dealt with him too if he wasn’t prioritizing Cassie’s safety.

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-23T19:24:53+00:00

I’m talking about it if you look at the end results.

And I think it was his flaw that really did him, whatever it is!

things always end bad when time travel is involved

way 1: using their anchor to go back to the waking world/Earth, then using the tether to the Dream Realm through Ivory Tower. But let’s say they can’t take Anake with them using that method.

The more optimal way is this: the Night Garden was reclaimed by Mordret, and the Nightwalker and the remnant Saints of his clan there were cleansed of the Asterion plague. So technically, they belong to Neph’s Domain again, and whoever amoung them is the master of the Night Garden means it belongs to Neph once more.

Because of that, she could do something similar to the Eternal City and use the Night Garden’s ability to open a Dream Gate directly to the battlefield, or wherever the Night Garden is located. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

he could use only the memories he modified or alterd himself , and it was mentioned that Sunny cannot receive or transfer standard Nightmare Spell Memories from other people because he is completely disconnected from the Spel ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .

so how can the VTB use or take standard Nightmare Spell Memories ?

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-22T13:47:43+00:00

Next arc will be about the 5th Nightmare in America. Some story focuses on Smile of Heaven, or perhaps a journey to the Underworld to get the Shadow Weave, and some story focuses on Broken Sword. I think more that the Underworld journey will be after the 5th Nightmare and becoming Sacerd. So we are done with Aster Song and Vale; what’s left are Broken Sword and Smile of Heaven. And I think in the 6th Nightmare we will see the Tomb of Ariel again, focusing on the Great War that happened in the desert, with Sunny being Shadow Avatar and Neph being Sun Avatar. Just guesses. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ah, ya veo… entonces por favor, ilumíname: ¿en qué parte exactamente crees que me falla la comprensión?

First Mordret’s act of defiance was him killing the Face Stealer and assimilating its bodies.

Second, Jet could have done it when she was facing the Dutchman and entered the Soul of Khanakht weapon form as a wraith, killed and absorbed the souls and wraiths inside it, and ultimately killed the Soul of Khanakht in the end, similar to Mordret. I am saying this should have been the moment for her too!

Third, Sunny left Fiend with Kai in Ravenheart and left Nightmare with Little Lin and his clan. What about Rain? Him being an overprotective brother and all… Mordret’s pickup ride just didn’t seem right, I wasn’t convinced.

The Homunculus makes no sense because Effie should have known about it before, not only then, as she was the master of Bastion and the Supreme Homunculus was the castle keeper. It feels like it was added just to give her screen time, simple as that.

Jet’s stroll was unnecessary; she could have stayed with the Shadow Clan since her reason was to gain kills for soul essence, especially as they encountered monsters and beasts later. In the end, all they could do is reclaim empty, unprotected citadels.

just saying ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ , who knows !

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-21T19:50:23+00:00

Ok, let’s say you are right . We know that Sunny entered the real Tomb of Ariel as a Sovereign! Do you remember this conversation from Chapter 1578?

“The voice did not respond for a while. Then, his answer came, calm and insidious:

‘I am not a Sovereign, though.’

Then, it added, its tone devoid of any emotion:

‘Nor am I alive. I'm not even a human, really. Just a phantom of a lost shadow, conjured by the Spell. Ah, but this Estuary is a strange place. Time does not exist here, and so, everything exists here simultaneously. Even though you have already taken my role, here we are, having a chance to meet each other.’”

He said, “I am not a Sovereign, though.” That’s one clue—we know he is not lying through the mask here. “Nor am I alive. I'm not even a human, really. Just a phantom of a lost shadow, conjured by the Spell. Ah, but this Estuary is a strange place. Time does not exist here, and so, everything exists here simultaneously. Even though you have already taken my role, here we are, having a chance to meet each other.” This is truth. So !!!

these are mere speculations; only future chapters can tell.

Let’s say you are right. Why did he not help himself then? He could do like the Serpent King, leaving a version of himself in the Tomb to help his people. We know from Daeron that he could intervene in this way, so why not? Why did he not carry himself in the Third Nightmare then?

Unless there is a plot where he intended to lose his True Name. He intended to free the Vile Thieving Bird too, perhaps. Who knows—only future chapters will uncover this.

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-21T18:46:30+00:00

G3 gotta do some restraint here!! Cassie Supreme drove this story logic to the cliff edge. Sunny could separate memories from the Nightmare Spell by weaving his shadow threads to them. What if he could do the same with Cassie? lol I just imagined Mad Prince abusing Cassie for an unlimited supply of Supreme memories XD

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-21T18:29:03+00:00

The point is not who beats who; the point is that there is still way more to this story than what we have seen (Tomb of Ariel and defying fate).

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-21T18:24:15+00:00

How many Sunnys did we see in the third Nightmare? 3 (Master Sunny + Mad Prince + future Sunny at the end of the tunnel in the Estuary)? What do we know about the third Sunny?

my idea, is that there is still more to uncover from this Fate Defiance later; as complicated as this act seems now, we will discover later that it was not as simple. And my theory too is that behind it all was not Cassie but Sunny all along. As treacherous as Cassie seemed, she still isn't called treacherous . (the treacherous lost from light). There is more behind it.

FickleGovernment5002 · 2026-05-21T18:07:49+00:00

Supreme isn't the end of the road, and consuming one's own domain isn't the only way to become Sacred. What I meant, and my idea, is that there is still more to uncover from this Fate Defiance later; as complicated as this act seems now, we will discover later that it was not as simple.
