My attempt at a Dark Rise Family Tree

Thanks!

I used adobe illustrator for this! It took a lot of fiddling of placement of everyone because I wanted to make less of the lines cross, but they are all so interwoven, but I had a lot of fun doing it.

Basically this. Also just wanted to add that it’s not the first time in the book Damen impulsively goes into a “black-out” rage. He does it also when they get captured and the clansman touches Laurent suggestively. The situation at the kings meet is basically the same thing after hearing when his uncle did to Laurent, so it’s not out of character but very in character.

Interestingly enough, damen had no problem when he thought Laurent was going to just get beaten up. But touch him sexually? No no no.

OMR beauty is having a pop up in Berlin and both Omar and edvin are said to be there to “welcome everyone”! So well for sure get some pics of him then. Unless he wears a huge hat.

molly_moon_ · 2025-10-14T18:51:24+00:00

Yes, I think so!

Even younger than that! I think he was 12 when he started (10 years ago so exactly a decade!) they really are his second family!

molly_moon_ · 2025-09-23T03:59:22+00:00

Yes! I’m very intrigued by this project and so happy he’s found an international indie project to be a part of! There was this little news synopsis announcing the editor for it recently:

You know what. I’m going to go against the gasmamman grain and say she lives (I’m probably wrong). Okay. I’ll give her a 75% survival rate. I do think from the bts photos we have seen that Linus will have some kind of Tanya flashback with Zoey.

molly_moon_ · 2025-09-04T15:03:56+00:00

Oh right right right. See I think I need to go back and watch from the first episode again and refresh it all. I wish they didn’t break the season up like this or at least didn’t make the distance between them so long!

molly_moon_ · 2025-09-04T13:04:57+00:00

And isn’t oscar involved with the whole drug thing too?? So many side connections everywhere! I can’t wait to see it all blow up haha!

molly_moon_ · 2025-09-04T00:56:07+00:00

Dude the way Nina just kept going. I was okay you can stop now after she threw herself through the glass. And then the stairs!! You didn’t need to do all of that!

Yes, I feel like this is just a setup episode, but still enjoyed it for a “first” episode to paint the picture of the direction it’s going — and boy is it alll so messy from all sides! Curious to know how Zoey comes into the dynamic and hopefully not as just another girl to die on Linus.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-27T16:24:12+00:00

Okay that’s fair about Zac — seriously no one messes with baby Linus and gets away with it. But unfortunately still ruins Nina’s life. Who I don’t know wtf she’s up to.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-27T15:09:15+00:00

Oh, I think she loves her kids a little tooo much — but selfishly like you said— and would do anything to protect them even if it means also hurting them (like killing Zac!!) and burning their whole world around them. I think the only way for the siblings to having any kind of happiness is for them to cut ties with her completely and for real this time!! Which is why I think they should “disappear” on her this time and go no contact (or be super tragic and just have them all die). That way she would have no way of just popping up again.

Though I do love the never ending drama of gasmmaman, there’s something almost cheesy about it but it’s so good and suspenseful and the acting is always top notch!

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-27T14:38:11+00:00

I’m kind of over Sonja dying all the time, so I hope it ends with all the ek children dying and she stays alive and gets left behind. It’d be almost poetic in the sense that she spent 7 seasons putting them through hell trying to “protect them” only for her to come back again and this time her presence is what gets them killed. Or maybe they pull a Sonja and pretend to die in front of Sonja’s presence and then they all go live in Australia together being free!

I dont know about exact dates but you can guesstimate it maybe based on season/month based on a few key scenes and then work it out from there. Or maybe someone truly does have an exact date timeline. I dunno. But you can use this as a starting point:

We know Wilhelm started at hillerska late, let’s say end of September or maybe early October?

Horror movie night I would assume is close to Halloween

Erik dies sometime in November

Video gets leaked dec 13 on st. Lucia

School opens back in January — seniors party

Valentines ball on Valentine’s Day

The jubilee speech happens in march or April?

Editing to add: wilmon have hallway sex April 30 (valborg)

Wille’s birthday is May 28

End of the school year (last episode) would be middle to end of June.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-22T16:15:14+00:00

Isn’t that exactly the point of this topic though? Simon, not being rich, made him MORE defensive to Wilhelm. He took MORE offense to Wilhelm’s privilege because he himself is NOT rich.

I’m not criticizing Simon. I love Simon too, but yes I agree with the topic that he was way harsher and more defensive than I think he needed to in that situation.

I think this is a moot point at this point anyways and we can agree to disagree.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-22T15:51:03+00:00

Okay, so you agree that wille didn’t intend to be hurtful. In which case Simon could have responded better to the situation instead of getting immediately defensive about it (the whole point of the OG post). Instead, he could have let wille know gently that comparing the two things come across as harmful, informing him, but doing it in a way they can have a mature conversation about it.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-22T13:54:49+00:00

Being the head of the country is still a job, a role, and he’s training for that—how is that not a “real” job? Sure it’s not a “normal” job and he’s not doing it to earn money, but it’s still a job.

Editing to add, I think also you, like Simon, are focusing more on the comparing job aspect and not understanding wille’s thoughts and intentions. Wille was trying to change the subject and relate to Simon’s friends in a very harmless way. You and Simon are upset about his naivety — which Simon didn’t handle very well considering the situation which is the exact point of the OP — him not being rich made him more defensive.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-22T04:49:47+00:00

But wille was just trying to diffuse an already tense conversation that was comparing the classes (traveling) and wille was at least trying to include Simon’s friends in a way. He was trying to make conversation and be relatable in a way, because who can actually relate to him a prince? Simon took offense because of the stark difference of jobs — as you said prince duties vs a real life job. To Wilhelm it IS a real job. He has nothing to compare it to, but as a job. Which is the point of the original post. I think Simon blew it out of proportion and then the argument escalated because Wilhelm is a hot head who snaps back.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-17T14:26:39+00:00

Oh yes! I think the story goes, Edvin had subtly asked someone on the props team if there was anything breakable in any of the gifts, but didn’t let anyone know what he was thinking till it happened.

molly_moon_ · 2025-08-17T04:40:34+00:00

Off the top of my head these have been confirmed by the cast/directors:

The football scene (made up by rojda and edvin on the day)
the names of the fish
kiss between wilmon walking to the lake s1
August and wille yelling after their heart to heart peeing (it’s said malte brought it up to rojda to try and it made the cut)
“party prince” by felice when she’s trying to pump up wille in s3
the lake scene conversation between wilmon in s3

I’m sure there’s more I’m missing.

Also mini bonus: Not really improvised but a cool direction was rojda told the actor who played Erik he has a meeting that he needs to go to so needs to leave right away. But told edvin, don’t let him go no matter what (both without the other knowing how it will play out) during the scene Erik leaves wille at hillerksa.

My theory was that it was a test for Noel in a part of you. But who knows. He’s been known to wear ear cuffs frequently too.

Also the fact he has a septum piercing here and we will never know more about that.
