Okay so I’m definitely following the rabbit hole that everyone else is thinking. He already finished the nightmare because at the start of this whole thing he woke up on the raft yelling. No stop not again! So he finished the nightmare and made a wish to start it all over again. That’s why wish was on the boat and the sin of solace is really just trying to distract him because if he learns what happened before when he did the nightmare the previous times he could go insane. 🤔
Hey crazy theory here, could Sunny and Nephis had a child (ie Ananke) and this story is about that. So literally they met their child here, would explain why corrupted Sunny didn’t kill her like evryone else. It would also make it super interesting because they were traveling around as a family. Maybe old Sunny’s wish had something to do with Nephis or perhaps Ananke. It would also explain why the future projection of Sunny, Sinny, isn’t around, maybe he recognizes her or it has something to do with the wish. I’m still working on the larger theory of the wish that created this world, but I think this idea is pretty plausible.
I am so looking forward to when they reach Fallen Grace, Ananke will turn into a 1-2 yo baby and will have to be carried around, most likely by Nephis and they will finally reunite with the rest of the cohort, who will be wondering, when did the two of them have the time to make a baby :DI can already see Effie grinning and making fun of Sunny, while Kai would probably sincerely congratulate them :D
