I worked as a dance intlstructor for years. It is fun to see the parallel. Social dances have a set of typical movements with functions to accomplish different goals. However, each has a personality and understanding that will enable you to take a given dance much further than simply repeating sets of moves. I used also frequently tell my students the biggest difference between advanced dance and many martial arts is intent you have for your partner.

One Sunny always tells the truth and the other always lies :D

I wonder if she left herself a plan to remember Sunny. I am also hoping that the memory she wants made is a literal experience together with Sunny. Though knowing our lovely author, she is just using her aspect ability to see info on him.

Hi is not lying because he is infact the master of the establishment. It is not his fault if they mistake that for hir rank as an awakened;p

I am thinking through that as well. Who comes to my mind is White feather clan members, fire keepers, and rain. I think that is mostly it. I think we made it through the non-combatants from the previous arcs. We have been going in order of the volumes, and there would be no civilians from the last arc. So maybe Effy next. Maybe she stepped back from fighting to be a mom?

Thank you! It takes a lot of time and effort to write characters that people get this invested in.

Herr are my guesses for the upcoming volume. He is going to fight the Vile Theiving Bird as the big bad from the next volume. Or maybe the volume after that. I'm guessing he will seek out Kai and Effy first as Kai's flaw will confirm Sunny's story. His connection with the government will be reestablished pretty easily as any saint is a massive boon. He will probably have a tenuous reconnect with Neph and Cassie as their lives can't make sense without him. Maybe when he shows up to the White Tower Citadel. Though this will be a frustratingly slow process. I'm guessing his assent to Sovern will be different. It may happen even along the way as he already has experience sensing a domain and has a portion of a domain from his legacy. He will get materials and make new memories for himself as well. Maybe even echos as he is due for up to two new shadows. I'll be excited to see the next part of the dream realm. I wonder if he will look of the part that was the Shadow God's domain. He may also start to make his was to the Tomb of Arielle. Now that he knows it is the size of a small planet on its own he also knows that it will take a long time to travel there . Something like walking to the moon on foot. It will be fun to look back at this comment and see if I was close!

magenta is better :p

Yeah the combo would be a bit silly.

Imagine that he was actually a sovern now and the next arc is to go back to the tomb of Ariel and fight the Vile Theiving Bird and that it was not a distant version he met but the version of himself from like 3 months from now.

*Cassie steps off the boat* Title music starts playing.

It sounds like that is what Cassie is hoping for.

Will Cassie finally admit to loving Sunny? Tune in next time!

Damnation

So... Would this be a twisted form of self-help?

Chills!

Same lol, though admittedly , it is a really neat way to do a time loop arc

Chills. I love event driven character development. Sunny learned to want to protect as the outcome of the life experiences and not some shallow philosophy that is convenient

should or should not do not matter nearly as much and can and cannot! :p

Watch, he is stuck in a time loop, and that memory explains it. All of these rune carvings were carved by him in previous loops. However, because of time river reasons, there are parts affected by his parents selves that carry forward.Sin of Solace is more solid because it has been out for a massive amount of time due the time he has been on the river.
