I'm not so sure that it'll only be one. Remember the syndicate old man in the market in 0.8? One of the things he said was "the loss of the ones you love".
Yea but Syndicate's phone call also told us at the end of this update that we are reaching the point of no return. Idriel told us that, Orion and not she, always found way to reset the timeline, at least so far. This makes me think that the game story focuses on how Orion finally get ending which doesn't result in him hitting the reset button. ... Also one of the choices we make is picking Healing as magic that Penny learns. ... I am thinking that their death rather the capture, is something that happens as constant so far, but this time it will be different.

I really loved the first half ot the new episode. 10/10 in my opinion. Second half left a bad taste in my mouth as it killed the momentum of the episode.

I may be reaching but my guess is that we'll show up in a panic and find that all of them are currently stuck in eternum and unaware of what happened and we have to find where they are before they try and exit the game themselves. Also I suspect CHANG, MY GOAT, will be involved since he's not in eternum.

For the record, Annie's my favorite girl too! :ROFLMAO:
Well, one of my two favorite girls. The other one is Luna, who's almost just as likely to get sacrificed. I'm just preparing you guys for the possibility that it COULD happen. Right now we don't even know if LI's death is what Caribdis is gonna go with. But if he does, us Annie fans better prepare ourselves mentally now rather get caught with our pants down 10 months later.



I do agree that Alex would also work extremely well in this context. She's among the top-3 most likely to get sacrificed imo. I also agree that narrative-wise, her Bardot lineage also ties in better with our upcoming clash with William Bardot. But in terms of emotional impact, I still think Annie's (TEMPORARY!) death would cause a bigger emotional shift in the story. Because Alex is such a popular character, we know for a fact that Cari would bring her back almost immediately, which makes it very predictable. But god forbid he chooses Annie instead? We can only hope Caribdis isn't on a sadistic streak.

And again, I gotta emphasize that I would NEVER wish ill on my precious Annie. But goddamn it I gotta prepare myself in case Cari decides to rip my heart out and play dodgeball with it. We got a tiny preview of it with the Luna reunion scene this update. Imagine THAT but cranked up to 11.
If any of the deaths are permanent I will suffer a generational crashout.

man, everyone wants people to just die in the next update, huh? This reminds me when people thought a while back that Orion was for sure gonna die and be a ghost in Eternum after getting wounded, cuz how else could he possibly live?

Sarcasm aside we gotta remember that for all the drama, Caribdis has put in a LOT of Red Herrings. And I mean a lot. Hell, he even has a server where the gang find the first Gem of Doom, "The Red Herring".

I actually forgot that one. The moment Penny said she just needed to "adjust", she knew immediately what was going on.

Also, one of the big things to keep in mind regarding if anyone of the crew died in the cliffhanger is that it says that people were only dying if they were taken out of Eternum forcefully, such as dying in Eternum or timing out. It even says that using a portal, even at by the time Orion wakes up, was safe. But with millions of people in Eternum at any given moment, and many serves being PvE and PvP, lots of people could have died in Eternum before word got out even if it only took a few hours for word to spread in the system itself since most people aren't as careful in Eternum as they are "irl" about fighting and possible dying. People literally have gladiator battles "to the death," with little fear because it wasn't permanent... until now. Not to mention people who just play till they time out, both of which were the causes of deaths.

So the odds that the girls were in Eternum when the surge hit, that they then also died while in there or were otherwise forced out, is actually really small. Also, unless I just missed it, we aren't actually given a number, just it starts with 6 and was big enough to be a massive deal. But given that no one is supposed to die for real in Eternum it could be as realtively small as 6000 and still be a big deal since it everyone is at risk, and it means the company could go under, since the number should be 0 people die irl because of Eternum.

So, I don't think any of the girls will be dead or trapped. Since even the wording in the scene makes it clear, to me at least and how I understood it, that after the initial burst of deaths and confusion things were stabilized enough that people were leaving safely and told not to enter Eternum for the time being.

I think people have some twisted fantasy or very low levels of optimism. Nobody in the LIs are getting murked/killed/offed/murdered.... :FacePalm:. The backlash will be crazy and Caribdis will never do something like that

Now people want deaths everywhere, apparently it conditions some to find certain works ‘more adult’... In my opinion, many have been overfed with series like GOT or Walking Dead, etc., and think that a good work must take risks by killing off main characters. Look at how the last season of Stranger Things was received.

Yeah it's really stupid. Shows like GOT, the Boys etc have essentially ruined people's taste in general

First of all the last season of stranger things and GOT were shit,second no one wants to kill the main character coz it feels cool it just tells u that the story is the boss and given the circumstances anybody could be at risk and die.The last seasons of both the above said shows had very high stakes and extremely difficult situations to get out alive and yet they did coz what? PLOT ARMOUR.so yeah people are not overfed they are just sensible in dissing these shows.
coming to Eternum,of course we cant kill any of the ladies coz the story doesnt demand it yet,may be the writer decides to kill them in the future he has to provide substantial plot points as to why he did that.although i dont think he would do that in a porn game with a diverse fan base of each girl plus the plot doesnt need anyone of the main characters to die,not yet atleast.

my thoughts are that they were save by Nova , because more than likely she found out and called them to warn them or she went to Alex apartment and warmed them .
but Nova will be the one Li in trouble on the real world 'cause she will be blamed by Ulysses ,(the error killing people on Eternum was made on purpose to find out who hacked into Eternum and from where it did it) that will mean the other Lis will be in the crosshair of everybody because their association with Nova .
here is when the talk with the founder will become a self-fulfilling prophecy "

Yeah, I'm almost completely positive that most of what's happening is actually the Founder's plan; he seems to care very little about what actually happens in Eternum and is waiting for a very specific outcome (namely when the 10 gems of doom are gathered in one spot. With one left and both holders of the other 9 being on their way to grab it, it's practically end game from his stand point.

I also have a working theory that time loops to some extent based on a few glitchy happenings throughout the story (like Orion making the wrong choices during the Elf trial and dying) and that one of the bad endings would mean Orion becomes the new Founder.

I really like this part because it shows us potential endings for the story.
A) Sacrifice the ones you love for power, bad ending (Orion King of Eternum without LI)
B) Sacrifice the ones you love to save others, bad ending (presumably this is what leads to the timeline reset by Orion if Idriel dialogue in the Elf Jail about him "finding a way to return" is a hint to what happened in most previous instances)
C) Don't sacrifice the ones you love to save others, bad ending (presumably this is another reset by Idriel because she wants freedom)
D) Don't sacrifice the ones you love and somehow save others, presumably cannon good ending

There are no variable assigned in this choice so this choice won't change anything but taking the amulet will assign a variable if you check the code.

Interesting. If we know the founder didn't create Eternum but merely discovered it, then it's likely he also discovered the stones, not created them. What are the chances that the founder is also interested in collecting 10 stones, and this whole game is just a scam?
