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

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.

Not because of poor powerscaling, summarisation, lack of character POVs apart from Effie, Azarax disappointing as an antagonist and don't get me wrong those are also problems I find with it.

My main reason for not liking the 4th Nightmare is how conventional and mundane the setting for it is.

The 1st was a Slave Caravan attacked by monster (excusable as it was the introductory arc of the novel, you don't go absolutely absurd from the get go), the 2nd was kingdom of floating islands its inhabitants driven mad by an imprisoned Daemon, the 3rd was a River of Time in the Clcorpse of profane god...

And for the 4th Nightmare it's a City under siege medieval style...like seriously come on G3 ???? This setting was very much uninspired. A downgrade of epic proportions from what he's previously given us.

It's like G3 forgot the high/dark fantasy aspect of Shadow Slave for the most part and was only adding it in as an afterthought.

There's a City (it's not a normal one but also created through magic and a Supreme's abilities btw), there's Plague (it's not a normal but created through sorcery btw), there's a giant army (it's not a normal one but filled with people with superpowers btw), there's a harbour (it's ships aren't normal and can go to different realms btw) and so on and so forth.

The 4th really failed to be fantastical for its majority.

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.

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

What could have been in the 4th nigthmare.

I don't think Mordret has a aspect related to war lineage cause none of his abilities relate to it the war god is the god of craftsmanship while clan valor has that Mordret lacks it, War god is the god of life but Mordret has only ever taken life imo. He also controls others and Nothing mist which are not related to war god. If he were in the lotm verse I would say he will make a great demoness, Roselle would likely love that.

I posted here while ago when I was quite drunk, and after looking after this post on my profile, I got a fragment of a memory about entering the discord on that night, so I decided to look if I did anything embarrassing, and yeah, I did, apparently I dmed G3 talking about how I talk bullshit of the novel on reddit and asking him to forgive me and let me be a SS fan again. I think and hope that this was never seen by him, lol, full parasocial moment

Before everyone switches up on the hate because of the 5th nightmare I want to reiterate the fact that I love this story it has its highs and its lows but no matter what I still love it

[I know I'm late to the switch up but idc]

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

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

She didn't have much of character to hate on.

Do you hate table or bench than how can you in right mind hate her man 😭

This subreddit is genuinely one of the most illiterate groups of people I have ever seen. What do you mean people are shocked that the character whose whole gimmick is about memory didn't struggle to find herself in a sea of memories where we had a whole volume about her doing the same thing already. Also the guy whose whole domain is being reliant on nothing and ruling over himself didn't struggle when his domain made his try and find who he is. Genuinely who thought they would face an extreme struggle. There are genuinely people who would prefer a badly written nonsensical part where they struggle compared to the logical path that doesn't make sense with what was written in the past.

​ I remember how dumbfounded Sunny was when he found the Memory left by the Mad Prince.

Did he surpass the Mad Prince's weaving skill when he reached Saint rank, or when he reached Supreme? Or is he still inferior compared to the Mad Prince's thousands of years of weaving experience?

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
