So the way I see it the Eve-is-these-characters-bit is pretty straightforward, the only thing I’m confused about in that regard is the mechanics of her hypnosis and Gift (but a clearer translation might make it easier.) I think the biggest issue with the Eve-is-these-characters news, aside from the fact that everything to do with Sloth is going to need a lot of additions/rewrites, is how we’re going to be handling these related characters pages.

Personally, I am in favor of treating Eve like Irina and merging Margarita and Platonic’s pages into hers directly, with a rewrite of her Personality and Skills and all links to their pages redirecting to Eve’s. (Perhaps a minor character section for Margarita Felix, the baby.) All of Mikulia’s history past her death will also need to be migrated to Eve’s section. Master of the Court we should leave alone < <

All the stuff about the twins making the demons with household items, that’s pretty interesting. It seems that the original vessels were not as metaphorical as we believed…and it makes sense now why Sloth is the only vessel that was made from something intangible (wind) in Chrono Story, and was represented by just the image of the doll rather than some wind outlines. The “why” of the twins doing this still eludes me, of course. Did they simply divide up Eve’s tainted magic and play around with it for the Evulz? Were the demons a safer alternative to her corrupted magic as a whole entity?

And as for Elluka’s survival, although that was assured via the Merrigod Duel not happening yet, I do wonder if Eve’s soul did a number on hers or not. It could just be another tease from mothy of Elluka turning evil when she really doesn’t (Story of Evil) or maybe Eve’s fragments turn her slowly insane or maybe we should just wait until Five the Pierrot clears this up and assume she won the battle anyway.

< < That other stuff with the descendants and the woah Bruno Marlon and Shaw is frickin’ over a hundred years old by the time he passes away I am pretty happy over that. We now know that Yukina had descendants and Kyle had descendants, but we still don’t know if they had descendants with each other pfff. Maybe that’s actually cleared up in this novel though, who knows.

Also Lemy the Ripper is closer to Jack then we thought 8C although I think he’s going to surpass the accepted body count. Maybe Julia is specifically trying to target a prostitute whose identity she doesn’t know, because I can’t see any reason for her to fixate on those “bad children” specifically. And it seems that everyone’s assumptions about the Foundation in the old days of Gumillia-was-in-Last-Revolver were at least partially correct.
