Actually, I would like to make a correction to my theory from the previous chapter. I am now starting to believe that he seven heroes may not have been the gods, but rather, the daemons themselves. Born into the world, and forced to sacrifice themselves along with their followers to keep the seal, and the nightmare, away. Thus the point of the Nightmares, to provide soul energy to the goddess trapped, to keep her from becoming fully corrupted and having the prison break. Thus the terrible secret of the daemons, is that they sacrificed everything, along with future generations, to keep the corruption away.
There are 2 problems with this theory that directly correlate. 1 there were 7 warriors one was faceless so on one hand we could consider the faceless to be oblivion that way since it's not a full depiction it isn't forgotten but then there's the problem of Weaver an outlier in the war who's own follower was imprisoned in the chapel of the dark city. So I doubt the daemons where the heroes of the Forgotten Shore I assume they where just the world of the Forgotten Shores equivalent of our main cohort or at least 7 divine holders. Infact the faceless was probably the Dream gods Divine lineage holder and once the dream God was sealed in the void the gods had there depictions destroyed.
How many people woke up today, hopeful to find Shadow Slave had updated and dashed to discover they have to go through the day without knowing more, as alas, it didn't update today. Today we morn the loss of many peoples read streaks (has it really been years?), and acknowledge many will be sitting there staring at their phones feeling lost. Fret not my friends, for when tomorrow comes the chapters will too! Thanks Guilty for this addictive story! Enjoy your holiday!
The Mad Prince was going to share all of this with Sunny in the dream, but Sinny stopped him. 'I want to tell you a secret ' It wasn't to spread the corruption, it was to break the thousands of cycles. If through Weaver's forbidden lineage, he has Dream God's, then that's why the Mad Prince could influence/infiltrate dreams.
I assume the doom war was led by the 6 Daemons excluding Weaver in order to free their creator Dream God. where as Weaver decided that he wouldn't join and actually stand on his own because as the daemon of fate he knew what could happen, that or he didn't want to risk being absorbed back into Dream God which is fair
