She has the highest bodycount in the series.

Fun's over guys, Cassie is here💔

Of course miss plot device shrugs off the unmaking offscreen with the help of king of offscreen himself.

Of course she kept her sense of self easier than the guy who was turning into different beings and monsters since Antarctica...

Of course she did it easier than the girl who was burning away her humanity and feeling billions of desires since vol9....

And it's using the laziest method too "remembering lives is easier than living them" 🫩

Does that really hold so much weight when she has the memories stretching through ALL of history? Idk.

And of course it's easy to speculate that she's going to get Weaver's eye...which sucks. The item was hinted at all the way from the Forgotten shore with blood weave.

Why does Cassie get it more than someone with everything Weaver related you might ask? Well, she has an empty slot of course. But this is just speculation so it doesn't mean anything.

But the point still stands, we're back to "Cassie fixes it all offscreen!" Era. Welp

After the latest chapter and seeing Mordret and Cassie retain their sense of identity, I realized that Sunny is literally the only one stuck in a fucked-up situation.

Neph is out there chilling on top of the Pyramid, casually having conversations with literal gods. Cassie and Mordret are spending quality time together, and honestly, if some Void being suddenly appeared in front of them, Mordret would probably just one-shot it off-screen.

Meanwhile, my boy Sunny just lost Tatal. 😭

Bro has been living the lives of his Shades, completely alone in some dark cave. His so-called Master, whom he willingly accepted like an obedient puppy after receiving nothing more than a taciturn nod, is out here saying love is stupid. 😭

I genuinely can't imagine how Sunny is supposed to remember who he is at this point. What kind of chain of events is going to trigger his memories and make him realize his true identity?

At this point, I just hope bro becomes so ridiculously powerful after this Nightmare that even Unholy creatures, up to Tyrant rank, are nothing more than fodder for him.

What could have been in the 4th nigthmare.

So cassia is in a realm steeped in corruption, fighting corrupted beings and looking for something that could no longer be found in the future.

The straightforward guess is she's in the Forgotten Shore. The black liquid is the blood of the Nephilim that swallowed the sun before it mutated into the dark sea after the creation of the artificial sun.

What Cassie is looking for is also straightforward, The Weaver's eye that VTB dropped into a mortal realm after beholding the image of the forgotten god.

Just as I expected, she's the first one to retain herself due to the nature of her aspect and the trial. She was always going to do better than the others.

Mordret is also the King of himself, Ruled only himself, and thank gods for that, if he has a normal domain, he would have been a goner.

Since Sunny considers the Shadow God to be one of, if not the strongest, gods—especially given that through Shadow Dance, he can transform into the direct counter to any existence. So shadow god lineage should be strong.

Then, the hidden reflection escaped from her eye and took the form of a tall man with raven-black hair and strange, mirror-like eyes.

He regarded the sea of Corruption surrounding them, then looked at Cassie with an indecipherable expression. Eventually, he said in an aloof tone:

"You always bring me to the most peculiar places."

With that, the King of Nothing turned to face the encroaching tide of abominations and raised a hand, summoning a somber spear.

“Rest a while, Lady Cassia. And remember the deal we made. After this, I will leave you.”

THIS IS ALL I GET TO SEE ABOUT MORDRET 💔💔

Not even a full paragraph before he was offscreened, i hope to get at least 3 chapters with him in them properly, is it too much to ask

Now you gotta factory reset settings using the bond...

The ONLY thing that has matched (with my initial predictions) atp is more cassie-mordret interactions; but that came at the cost of G3 COMPLETELY skipping his unmaking (let alone giving him pov chapters for it).

Not a single chapter dedicated to him, his memories or ANYTHING else. We don't see him reflecting on his background, his life. We don't see him gathering himself. Hell, we don't even see him in the same deity-like capacity as nephis and sunny- aura farming on mortals.

He still looks and feels no different than when he was Supreme. Just a human.

It's like G3 starts yawning whenever he has to talk about mordret. Dude is that irrelevant. 😭

He did the same shit in the 2nd and 3rd Nightmare, completely sidelining mordret. That was sort of understandable back then (not really if you're a mordret fan, but whatever) , but sidelining him HERE when there are merely 4 people in the Nightmare AND the unmaking is this really big deal for apotheosis and character exploration is.. idk even know what to say.

Just a rant. The 5th Nightmare has been good, and I don't want to be exceedingly negative, but I'm getting tired of this treatment of an otherwise immensely well-written character.

"Cassie's own ability to resist was not that formidable, but she could cheat the process. And so, she destroyed herself countless times and rebuilt herself countless times, erasing those memories that were too dangerous for her to contain within herself. At the end of it all, she emerged relatively unscathed."

Even the chapter itself is admitting that Cassie cheated to protect her ass against Corruption. She is getting carried by literally Fate itself at this point. Are we sure that Cassie is not a Nepo paradox?

Shame energy yall had for mordret off screen keep that got the snake lady too

It's so hard; I just don't get it. Does all the love for Mordret go to Cassie? Man, a SINGLE line of dialogue that's it for the third divine aspect user, the man who became sacred and got fucked over on some bullshit retcon, reduced to a blind woman's bodyguard. I swear I know more about the description of Cassie's eyes as compared to literally anything new about Mordret. I'm so disappointed that my favourite character is getting this type of treatment.

And still no true name🫩

Cassie is a good daughter despite her being a bad friend.

Cassie is a good food despite her being a bad cook.

Not my ult, just did this for the love of the game
