Okay, it’s Magi Discourse Time!

Topic: Does Il-Ilah have a consciousness or not? And if he did, why did he let David and Solomon overthrow him when he could’ve just re-wrote the rukh? Also look out for small discourse of Destiny & Singularity at the end.

Listen up.

There’s something that has been on my mind since Alma Torran arc. So 2+ years. And I think I’ve finally figured it out.

Spoilers ahead.

We all know David was the little shit stealing magoi from Il-Ilah back in Alma Torran, which made Il-Ilah weaker, hence, easier for Solomon to conquer.

If Il-Ilah had a consciousnesses, why didn’t he just re-write their rukh and change the destiny? This means that Il-Ilah is just a mass of power without any will, right?

Even Solomon said something of similar effect back in that arc.

However, Arba has been insisting this Final Arc that Il-Ilah does in fact have a personality because she could hear him. I theorised that it’s David being a little shit again and whispering things in her ear when he’s bored. This may very well be true BUT.

I have come to the conclusion that all Gods have personalities and will, but they transform into a mass of static power gradually over time spent alone in the Sacred Palace.

Let me explain.

Below is a panel of Ugo talking about his loneliness with Arba. Look at the art style. Ohtaka drew Ugo as a blob and not of his beautiful face. It’s not much, but it’s a subtle way to demonstrate the feelings of a character, which is something this manga uses a lot.

Ugo is even willing to befriend Arba, who is responsible for a lot of heartache to his beloved bestfriend Solomon. Ugo is very desperate for companionship here. Plus, bonus points for drawing teary third eye lmao wtf.

But then.

Arba says something very curious.

“He’s become a machine that mindlessly moves towards its goal.”

My contention is this.

As a God, you start out with a consciousness and a personality. However, the loneliness of being at the top (David understood this so well) will slowly consume you until you’re an empty shell of pure magoi and nothing else.

Maybe this is the real Destiny™.

Maybe the Meta God has designed the system in a way that all sub-Gods will fulfill their role as a God in their own worlds, die and become a mass of power, some little shit will grab on to that power and ascend through the hierarchy of the world system until you are united with the world of Meta God.

And maybe this is the real point of a Singularity. The people who are born once in a blue moon, who will eventually help to ascend their world onto the next step in the hierarchy.

And maybe this is what really happened to Il-Ilah. Maybe he used to be a person (hence giving humans the divine staves in Alma Torran) but he lost his will over time because he was consumed with loneliness.

Is this far fetched? A little.

But this makes more sense to me than anything has in the past chapters.

Thank you for reading and tell me what you think.

The Forgotten One

The story of King Solomon and the 72 divine staves was always the same, but like always history wasn't recorded correctly.

But one divine stave was missing, the 73rd stave.

(Focalor x Reader)

~~~~~

You trudged upstairs with your bookbag hanging over your shoulder. The school was finally over and done with, at least for now.

You sighed as you threw your bag down on the floor. If only things weren't so complicated... You shook it off and looked in the mirror to check your hair. The feathers you had weaved into the strands were still intact.

You smiled and laid down on your bed, covering your eyes with your arm.

You closed your eyes tighter as you felt a glint of light in them. You removed your arm and saw it was coming from a gold band on your left ring finger.

Your eyes softened as you stared at the simple band. You knew it was on your wedding ring finger, but for some reason, you couldn't take it off.

It's not as if it was glued to you literally. It was more figuratively. If you took it off, you'd feel empty. You didn't understand, but you always refused to take it off when people asked about it.

You sat up and brought it closer to you to inspect it and as you turned it, it said the same engraving as it always had since the ten years you found it. Forever mine. It was endearing, but the weird part was, you didn't know where it came from or who it come from.

It just showed up in the dusty parts of your room and you felt something towards it. So, you began to wear it everywhere.

You smiled and pressed a small kiss to the engraving.

You laid back down and put in your headphones to relax with some music. As your finger hovered over the play button, a faded image came.

It was of someone's fingers ghosting over piano keys. The same image that came every time you played this song. You never knew what it meant, maybe it was your future, someone's past, or a past life you had once.

You shrugged and played the song.  As the song's music started a scene came.

•~•~•~•~•~•

"My king, my king!"

"You are finally uniting the world.  Thanks to your great deeds... The day we were eagerly waiting is finally..."

"Don't cry like that Amon you old geezer! Old men are easily moved to tears!"

From behind the group, a girl with light blue hair and purple eyes began to giggle. She was wearing a white corset-like top, at the top of her chest blue outlined it, bell sleeves that started halfway up her forearm and ended at her hand with little blue ruffles under it, white waist cape flowed from behind the white skirt with blue ruffles under the skirt.

"I really can't believe it. So many different species... Have about their pasts and entrusted themselves to you, a single great vessel..."

The same girl smiled at the thought of how far everyone had come, the train of thought was interrupted as her gaze shifted to someone blushing while staring at a man, the blush was soon replaced with an expression of sorrow.

"Huh... You cheater~."

"Just give up!"

"He's right, just fall in love with me!"

The blue-haired girl patted her on the head for comfort. She frowned and walked over to the man, once she was close enough she bonked him on the head with her staff.

"Ow! What was that for, Aoide?!"

"For being a womanizer and breaking Leraje's heart!"

•~•~•

"Aoide, go out with me."

The same blue-haired girl rose a brow, but then rolled her eyes. She got up and put down the book that she was reading.

She grabbed his wrist and dragged him outside to a small garden. Once she stopped she placed a hand on his shoulder.

"It was nice going out with you, goodbye lord Focalor."

With that, she walked off leaving him gaping and processing what exactly just happened.

•~•~•

Aoide sighed as Focalor tried to win her over. The poor guy didn't know when to quit. "Focalor quit it."

He pressed a kiss to her hand and held it to his chest. "Go out with me just once," he said.

Aoide narrowed her eyes, "are you done?" She asked. He nodded.

She ripped her hand away from his, "no." She then walked off and left him gaping there once again. Everyone else there to witness the scene began to howl with laughter, especially Leraje.

•~•~•

Focalor was stuck, he didn't know what to do. He'd tried all his normal lines and everything he knew as a womanizer. Surprisingly, none of those caught her eye. How could he get her shining purple eyes to look at him?

He brought his hand to his chin in thought. What could he do to finally catch her attention?

He snapped his fingers as he got an idea. He got up and stormed out of the room, an idea in his mind.

~a little later

"Please."

Aoide stood there slightly gaping at the sight of a bouquet of purple flowers right under her nose.

She sighed and looked around to see no one around to witness his advancement.

Her eyes softened at the sight of him kneeling down. She sighed for the umpteenth time, "okay."

"What?"

"Are you deaf? I... Said okay," she said, blushing. She was going to pay for this later.

"Really?"

"You ask for confirmation one more time and I'll slap you silly," she said, raising her hand.

He chuckled and wrapped his arms around her, "okay, okay." She bit her lip and let out a deep breath, relaxing in his arms.

•~•~• Aoide hummed in bliss as Focalor's hands ran through her hair. She was trying to read, but once his hands began to groom her hair all she could do was feel sleepy.

Her eyes drooped as he weaved feathers into her hair. "Focalor... Stop," she said wearily. He chuckled and continued.

She pouted and then closed her eyes. After a bit of feeling his hands run through her hair, she fell asleep.

Focalor smiled down at her sleeping face and wrapped his arms around her, laying her on his chest.

•~•~•

"F-Focalor~."

He smirked against her neck and continued to run his hands down her curves. He then reached his hands under her shirt to feel her soft (s/c) skin.

"Mmmm..."

He began to trail kisses down her neck and suck on her weak spot. She let out a soft whimper.

He bit her neck, "louder," he commanded. She moaned as he bit several spots on her neck.

"Focalor!"

He smirked as he felt her squirm under him, this truly was a moment to remember for him.

•~•~•

She looked over to his bare form, her gaze shifted to her nightstand. Sitting there was a lamp, showcasing that she was a metal vessel.

She nodded slightly. "Are... Are you scared of anything?" She asked hesitantly. Focalor's eyes widened.

"I'm only scared losing you."

She hugged him from behind, "you're not going to. I promise."

Focalor laid a hand on hers, "I hope so. Aoide?"

She looked over his shoulder, her long blue hairs spilling over her eyes, "yes?"

He turned to her and held her hands, "marry me."

She chuckled and rose a brow, "that was a more of an order than a choice. Do I have a say in this?" She asked.

He froze and blinked, he then regained his composure. He smirked, "I already know what you're going to say."

Aoide laughed, "where's my ring then?"

He smiled and from the palm of his hand came a gold band with an engraving.

Forever mine.

•~•~•

Aoide smiled as everyone in her underground city was flourishing and enjoying her music. After becoming a Djinn everything changed, the world they knew was gone. Her attire was now a white skirt that reached to her ankles with a slit going down her leg, she also wore a white crossover crop top. A gold necklace rested on top of her chest, as well as gold cuffs on her forearms.

Although, as she looked at all the smiling people she felt a little gloomy. She hadn't seen Focalor in quite a while and was growing lonely.

Ever since becoming a Djinn she wasn't able to see him.

The only reminder she had was the ring he gave her. She sighed, but then perked up as she saw Ugo with Aladdin.

"He's adorable!" She exclaimed.

"Sorry, Leraje! I have too many beautiful girls here in "Alma Torran" for all the others I have just one word, adios!"

She rose a brow as she heard Focalor's voice. Her eye twitched with anger, "lord Focalor, if you don't get rid of the whores you're with, I'm gonna come over there the beat the shit out of you. That's a promise, not a threat."

Focalor paled as he heard this and froze.

Baal sighed, "Focalor, you should really find yourself a wife. Maybe then you wouldn't be a womanizer."

He quickly recovered, "I already have one," he said simply. Everyone's eyes widened.

"WHAT?! WHO?!"

"Aoide."

Now it was Aoide's eyes that widened, "why'd you tell them?! I'm gonna kill you!"

•~•~•

"Ugo, there's still negativity in some people. As much as I'd hate to say it, I don't think showcasing Aladdin will allow it to dissipate. Let me help."

"What are you going to do?" He asked.

"I can't say. It's a secret of my tribe, but I can use it now. I think it's the right time."

Aoide waved her staff, a piano appeared and she sat down. Her fingers ghosted over the keys and she took in a deep breath, she then began to play.

theres a point where it tips theres a point where it breaks theres a point where it bends and a point we just can't take anymore

theres a line that we'll cross and there's no return theres a time and a place no bridges left to burn anymore

we can't just wait with lives at stake until they think we're ready our enemies are gathering the storm is growing deadly

now its time to say goodbye to the things we loved and the innocence of youth how the time seemed to fly from our carefree lives and the solitude and peace we always knew

Her power as Djinn was music. The power she gained from Solomon allowed her to project her voice to let everyone hear.

theres a day when we'll fight and we're not gonna fall theres a day when we'll stand and a day when we won't crawl anymore

there's a moment in time and there's no going back when we're pushed too hard and we won't hold our attack anymore

we can't just cling to childish things as evil just grows closer humanity's in jeopardy this fight is far from over

now its time to say goodbye to the things we loved and the innocence of youth with a doubt in our minds why we chose this life and at times we can't help wondering...

were we born to fight and die? sacrificed for one huge lie? are we heroes keeping peace? or are we weapons? pointed at the enemy so someone else can claim a victory?

The purpose of her power was to manipulate people's minds, feelings, and actions. As leader of her tribe she had all that power, but thanks to Solomon it was stronger. Singing this song is allowing her to give everyone hope.

But as the song finishes she's going to disappear. Putting her feeling of hope into her rukh, she's going use this power to send it all to everyone who has lost it.

A tear ran down her cheek.

I'm going to miss you all, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, my people.

My tribe.

My friends.

And most importantly...

now its time to say goodbye to the things we loved and the innocence of youth how the time seemed to fly from our carefree lives and the solitude and peace we always knew

I’m sorry... Focalor

After the last note was played, she disappeared. Only leaving her rukh behind to flutter to every misguided soul.

I love you.

The moment, the deed was the done. The metal vessel she had broke and vanished into dust, only to be blown away by the wind.

No one had to time ponder on this or mourn because she was quickly forgotten as if she never happened.

~Earlier

"What?"

"If you use your power, you'all be able to use it once. So, use it wisely," said Solomon.

"Why am I only able to use it once?" She asked.

"The power is too strong for anyone to use and be fine. Even for me. The moment anything about a person is manipulated, it'll be too much power to use. Especially when it comes to their feelings, the feelings you'd want them to have can't come from anywhere. It would come from your rukh. And once the power is used no one will remember you."

She bit her lip and hesitated to answer. "Okay. I'll be sure to be careful."

~

Just as he said, everyone had forgotten. Everyone expect one person, Focalor.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•

You sat up and felt your eyes and hair. You hair seemed the same, you went to the mirror and sighed in relief as your (e/c) was still the same.

"Y/N, GET DOWN HERE!"

You didn't have time to think of the scenes that played as your mom called you.

"COMING!"

You left your phone sitting on your bed, as you closed the door a bird flew to your window and stared in.

Snb 137 "Parthevia's sorcerer"

About snb 137, the visitors from work are still here, and won’t go after another week or so :( I did look at the raws but obviously might have missed a lot of details or might have misread a couple of things since it was a super quick look. I feel like a slave of the working system xD

i might not be very detailed or accurate this time because i’m just glancing at the pics while i work so, sorry in advance, but here’s more less what the chapter is about

the chapter starts with “a few days ago” in parthevia, Barbarossa is in the palace and a lot of people is cheering him, but then Falan appears and is revealed that she’s using magic on them after a while Barbarossa says “that’s enough” and Falan says “yes” and stops. Barbarossa says that today’s speech was a success. Falan says that with her “mind’s magic” ( Barbarossa has them brainwashed lol that explais a lot) she’s able to bend down people’s hearts and with that the people’s support to barbarossa is as solid as a rock barbarossa says thats shit ( lol) he says that humans are very simple creatures he says something about them supporting a statemans for their own convenience ( sorry, don’t take my words literally, i’m reading this really quickly beacuse work work work) then he tells falan that her magic doesn’t work on certain people ( arba and hakutoku ( is it him? i guess it’s him) appear on the panel) and she says she’s not interested in people without ability. barbs goes away and then rotter and ( i don’t remember his name, the heliohapt dude, was it menphis?) appear, rotter says he remembers her, and that she uses the magic from the dungeons, she says that they wouldn’t understand such thing ( i guess?) and more stuff i didn’t get to read with detail.

then the scene changes and falan says “what do you mean arba?, did you invalidate my magic?” she says that of course she would, her hakutoku finds that magic troublesome ( or something like that) then arba says that enevn though Barbarossa seems better than the others she wonders if he’s the right man to bring darkness to the world and she says that her kou empire is quicker in bringing back “their father” then she says “do your best falan” the scene changes and there’s falan in a room washing her make up ( she looks just like she did in alma torran, she’s so pretty!) she’s thinking about how arba must be wrong but then she starts to question is she could be right about barbs not being enough, then she hears “cof cof” and there’s ceylan in the bed calling for her he says “falan, don’t go, everyone goes, dad, my sister, please don’t go” then falan says “i won’t go” and she calls him tess ( omg this is so sad, she sees tess in ceylan) next day she’s with barbs and he says something like:  “Ceylan is the royal simbol but if it’s necessary i’ll kill him”,  and that he exists just for that. and he tells her that he finds feelings troublesome, he asks her if she understands, and she says that she does. she thinks that she should find another vessel ( guess she ralized she doesn’t like barbs) she thinks about the boy with a lot of magoi that can see destiny ( omg omg omg) the one that i met in valefor, Sinbad. she thinks that this boy can potentially be used to bring darkness into the world

the scene changes to little Judar. falan calls to judar ( rukh powers buhuu) he says “what is it old hag, nothing has changed here” she says “it’s not about the situation, it’s about the king vessel” ( i guess, sorry) Falan asks “is the king vessel doing well”? judar says “yes, can you feel my king vessel?” or something like that ( of course he’s talking about Seren who’s sad and standing alone in the yard. Falan says that’s right, and he tells him that if he’s necesary he can increase them, vessels that can create dark sports in the word" ( sorry for awkward wording ) and he says that that’s righ and that there’s interesting stuf happening And by the pic it seems that serendine fell into depravity.

.

sorry if some things are not accurate, i obviously missed some things or might have read a couple of things wrong in my rush, but i really needed to rant about this ^^ thanks for reading!

#KAEN CRY WITH ME ABOUT THIS ENTIRE CHAPTER#magi#sinbad no bouken#FALAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN#gyokuen saying 'her hakutoku'#HER HAKUTOKU I CANT#SKDJFGKAGLG TESS#TESS#FALAN THINKING ABOUT TESS#JUST FUCKING BREAK MY HEART WHY DON'T YOU @mayelamker

Listen. 

LISTEN. 

IT’S BEEN THREE DAYS SINCE THE CHAPTER CAME OUT AND I’M STILL NOT OVER IT, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT’S COMING RIGHT ON THE HEELS OF MAGI 337. 

I honestly did not think we’d get a scene of Falan showing her face, and I don’t know why I was surprised to see that she looks the same as she did in Alma Torran but I was. BUT THAT SCENE WITH HER AND SEIRAN THOUGH. AND THE FLASHBACK TO HER LAST CONVERSATION WITH TESS (I always thought that she and Wahid would have had some residual angst over that because oh my god, that regret over the wrong parting words can be strong). HER FUCKING EMPTY EYES. I. AM. COMPROMISED.

Going back to those theories we had about Serendine and Falan getting in a fight that ends with them both being killed...I wonder if maybe they’ll end up fighting over Seiran, or Judal, or both? (Especially since Barbarossa is now talking about killing Seiran...) Like, “STAY AWAY FROM MY BROTHER AND MY MAGI!” “STAY AWAY FROM MY UNHEALTHY COPING MECHANISMS!” (EXPLOSIONS) 

While this happens, Arba’s chilling in Kou with a martini or something. “I get the sense that life is fucking Falan over again. I’m so happy.” 

AND SPEAKING OF ARBA. “My Hakutoku”, I AM FUCKING DEAD. I have died, my shipping heart just exploded, I will be revived the next time Ohtaka decides to throw a surprise bone for this garbage pairing. I don’t know whether this is technically enough to confirm my “Gyokuen is hella possessive of her walking fuckmachine husband” headcanon, but fuck it, it’s enough for me.

AND THEN THERE’S THIS:

I’m going to die laughing. LOOK AT THIS SHIT. Hakutoku is looking RIGHT AT THE CAMERA (or the manga equivalent, I suppose) and we STILL CAN’T SEE HIS GODDAMN FACE. OHTAKA, WHY. WHY ARE YOU HIDING HIM FROM US. TELL US THE REASON.
