Ok, I have a theroy, I explain it and do my best to not make it so long (Pls only read if you played the game to 0.7 update)

Spoiler: My theory for story.

Okay, that's all that’s on my mind for now. I'm looking forward to your opinions. This game's story is just beautiful—simple, but yet so good and mysterious. Thank you, dear developer. You’re inspiring me to also write my own story, maybe someday, of course.

Honestly i just don't particular care about such vague prophecies...even more so if we get different tales from different sources.
These who have similar goals and loyal are welcome, the shemers who work against the MC will lose their heads, be it short or long term...

The thing is, the 3 snakes could be nearly everyone, neither we nor the MC knows much about the court, nobels, advisers etc. be it their characters, backgrounds or goals. I doubt one of the snakes is the mother thought, Alaina is far more likely with the reveals of the latest chapter, of course we could see next ep the mother sheming or a completely new character...or we maybe can replace a snake, like killing Cass and Isis taking her place, maybe we didn't even meet all 3 and so far the court seems full of shemers and snakes...i just find it kind of pointless to worry about the prophesy, didn't help the father much either...

 

[Fantabulous]

I really didn't care for the whole portal side story. Especially strange to squeeze in this experiment in the middle of our journey West. It just seems too disconnected from the medieval concerns of the main story. There isn't even an underlying reason or motivation that requires us to mess around with alternate realities. Just cause Ellin wants to.

I'm gonna regret favoring Ellin if her path leans so heavily into multiverse nonsense.

My thoughts exactly. The latest update has the usual share of sexy scenes but this multiverse crap is a huge mistake. I simply skip it.

The lack of an intriguing personality was one of the factors that led me to basically ignore the other two sisters and agree to Cass' coup.

The sorceress sister, so far, has had no significant impact on the plots and political schemes, and these parallel stories from various universes prevent her from deepening as a character.

Cass, living or dying, moves the story. Cass has depth. Cass is mentally unstable. Cass has an eye patch and is hot as fuck.

For Lazy Monkey, we know you're secretly watching . Don't listen to the criticism of the Elin multiverse in the mage road. Its great continue!

 

[Craudiao]

I think that, when the game is complete, this multiverse part can serve as a relief from the tension of the plot, but at the moment, where we spend 2 to 3 months anxiously waiting for a continuation of the story, it really gives the feeling that we are losing content... but as it should be something more than the complete game, I think it really should continue with this, after all, in 7 updates it only happened twice, so it's fine like this...

What I find incredible is not taking any advantage of different worlds, no weapons, no potion recipes, not even a mere vegetable peeler or a simple bottle of drink...
and Elin from the modern world, faced with another where the world had a nuclear war, not asking for any details is very strange in my opinion.

Sure, the problem is, the alternative world stuff is only on the mage path.
So if they suddenly return with assault rifles and rocket launchers it would affect many more scenes.
Also you would need expand the whole alternate story part even more if you want more lore and it's not like we have the time to actually explore any of these worlds, groups, characters, which makes it kinda pointless.

It's not like i'm against a story about travelling to other worlds/realities, but as the main theme of the story, with plenty of time to built lore, characters, explore etc. not like this.
Here it just feels disconected to the rest of the story and other characters, there's no time to actually develop either these worlds, nor the characters and it has no influence on anything else in the story.

I didn't mean something so extreme either, it's not like he came back with a tank or a helicopter, especially since the passages were short, but there was a pistol and a potion shop...
So a potion, or a pistol with some ammunition wouldn't have a big immediate impact on the world, it would just give him a "lifeline" to use at a crucial moment...
And in the other paths where he doesn't go to the multiverse, it doesn't have to be exactly exclusive, Elin could gift him with the same item in some way, claiming that she got it while training her magic...
short, without impact of ramifications, and would bring a greater meaning to the multiverse...

If he came back with a pistol and sees it's very effective, why wouldn't he try to produce more, at least for loyal troops.
I mean, it aint so hard to figure out how they work and they have magic, so i guess they find a way to replicate them.
Elin can open the portals to the multiverse only with the MC being a mage, for whatever reason.

That's why I mentioned that it wouldn't bring immediate changes, until he dismantled the study and managed to replicate it, it would take a long time... he also doesn't know who to trust... It's not that simple to create a weapon with medieval blacksmithing, the chinese novel, release that witch, raises this question... maybe the power used in bombs would make it have a faster impact... but that's him throwing away his trump card for a chance at success...

 

[zandalari]

Reading the thread drives forward how sprawling the game is. Half the time I'm like... wtf y'all talking about?

I got the green coronation. Cass is capable and right, it was time to remove the rotting carcass of a man from the throne. No one got arrested. Hoping I can pardon Priscilla or help her escape. Already earned her son's eternal loyalty for merely trying. Everyone is alive and ready for empire building, no drama. Can't stop collecting W after W.

Didn't get to eat mom out though, not sure what path that was on. Oh well, maybe in the future.

Nice point of view. As you said, prophecies didn’t help the father, and they probably don’t serve the son much better. Anyone can be a snake, but some are loyal, or at least you can force them to be loyal. So, we could say not everyone is a snake, after all. I also don’t think we should be excessively loyal to the Golden Order, but when I think about it, I can’t seem to find any other middle ground in this mess.
So, I believe, like you, that keeping the Golden Order as it is and making it better under our rule is the better path.

Portal haters when there is a marvel-esque multidimensional sister orgy next update and they're locked out by LM himself:

 

[Sossse]

what´s with all the portal hate. i found the scene super funny when they were all waiting in the toilate and realised that elin has a romatic crush on her brother in EVERY world, as EVERY version of her

Damn, I overanalyzed total two sentence prophecies so much that I fuckin' hate myself. This is the approach I am taking from now on.

They're blind to sexual potential of portal magic my friend.

I mean, that's pretty much the one thing we can hope for...that being said, if the other sisters as relucant to go all the way as Elin, we won't see this anytime soon...

Because it hardly contributes to the main plot, and it eats up a LOT of renders otherwise. The relationship with Lia has progressed far ahead of the relationship between MC and Elin or the Queen, which is baffling considering we are supposed to be closer to them (spent more time with) than with Lia - who is probably now carrying our bastard.

I don't think she can get pregnant

All in due time friend... Jokes aside that would be cuckin other MC's so nah I don't think there shall be any multidimensional orgy.

I really hope she can, need some pure blood as heir, which also isn't related to the north, south or west.

IIRC aren't some of the other MC's death ? So all fine, also that mature, big breasted Elin is a real upgrade to ours.

 

[Filipis]

Even Lia herself said that she "probably" can't get pregnant, and there's also probably a very good reason why LM gives the player an option to finish outside or inside of her.
