The Evillious Chronicles Wiki

Okay, so I know that this thing is old news now that the Muzzle of Nemesis and Master of the Hellish Yard songs are already out. But, for the sake of posterity, I'd like to go through each and every one of the allusions in the Nemesis poem, as well as add my own thoughts.

Paragraph 1[]

"Although she was a symbol of righteous indignation for the people, her personal intention was revenge. There was no one who knew the truth. She was honored as a hero after the civil war. Soon, she became a dictator."

So after Gallerian died, Nemesis was regarded as the people's hero. Note how the poem uses the words "indignation" and "revenge", which both correlate with wrath.  Also, I'd like to point out that Nemesis' story has some parallels to that of Germaine's - they ousted a corrupt government figure and were honored as heroes, even though their intentions for doing so were selfish and individualistic. Germaine herself alludes to the futility of seeking revenge in Praeludium of Red: "But this time, what is it for? An eye for an eye? How foolish. Getting revenge or something like that will only lead to more emptiness..."

Paragraphs 2&3[]

"In front of her was a keyhole. She herself, believed it was a switch to put an end to everything. Even so, she inserted a golden key there. To extinguish the forest and also the movie theater.

And then everything disappeared. The ruins that man left, and also her mother."

In the Master of the Hellish Yard, there are also mentions of "putting an end to everything" using the Golden Key. How the Golden Key is so powerful, we don't know. It's funny how the word "extinguish" is used, because extinguish is usually used with the word fire. Note how fire is asssociated with both Wrath and Greed

However, I don't know what "ruins" is referring to. If the man is indeed Gallerian, could "ruins" mean his estate, or Evil's Theater?

Paragraph 4[]

"Surely she won't pull the trigger of the revolver anymore. She doesn't have the need to. She thought that was the end. However, that was just a misunderstanding. In that moment she still didn't know there was something in this world that even the golden key could not consume."

Something the Golden Key couldn't consume... I wonder what that is. 

Paragraphs 5, 6 & 7[]

"A bat flew in the sky where the forest was. He believed for a thousand years that the people would turn this world into a utopia. However, it ended up becoming hell.

It is now impossible for him to interfere in this world. However, that wouldn't be the case for a new god born into this world. Even though the forest died, the god was not dead yet. The bat decided to borrow her power. That was forbidden, but it would be forgiven if it was only done once.

The figure/appearance of the end of the world, is it heaven or hell?"

At first, I thought that the "new god" was referring to Irregular, but since a female pronoun is used, the only god it could refer to would be Michaela. So Sickle's going to be "borrowing" her power somehow...

Additional Thoughts[]

Well, this entire poem seems to be mothy's idea of how the Evillious Chronicles will end. I'm pretty sure he said it "didn't have meaning" is because he doesn't want to be put in a corner plot-wise. However, given the number of allusions in this thing, there's not doubt he's going to use at least some of these ideas when he writes the ending of the Evillious Chronicles, whenever that may be.
