My Theory on Pachacamac and The Iblis Trigger

There is talk about how much they changed Pachacamac from a warmongering, power hungry tribal leader, to a goofy grandpa figure, but I think the truth of Pachacamac's nature might be somewhere between the two interpretations. Despite his friendliness, you can't forget he did lead a clan that wiped out the owls with a singleminded focus on capturing Sonic and reclaiming The Master Emerald. Pachacamac, now a ghost, has visited Knuckles to tell him he needs to expand his tribe. There are no other echidnas left, so he asks the sole survivor to take on an apprentice. "Show him our customs, teach him our traditions, and soon our tribe will grow once again."

There is no acceptance or acknowledgement of the fact that the clan's current situation is the result of a bloody feud and the destruction of an entire race besides their own. There is also, unsettlingly, no acknowledgement of Tails, Sonic, or The Wachowskis as members of Knuckles' clan.

While there are questionable elements to Pachacamac's approach, his motivations are at least understandable. Knuckles is a minority– the last of his tribe and the only surviving member of his species, so of course his old chief wants to see their traditions and culture preserved.

Things only get really weird when Pachacamac takes hold of Wade– Knuckles' apprentice and the soon-to-be new addition to their clan–and rewrites history. Rather than the tale of a lone owl that the echidnas hunted down in a quest for power, the story is instead of an entire flock of owls that were the aggressors, killing off Knuckles' tribe and burning down his village for no reason other than for the sake of the slaughter.

Similarly, Knuckles isn't described as a lost child left behind, but a fellow warrior who battled alongside his father until the bitter end.

So, knowing that Pachacamac's version of events is wrought with lies leads to one very serious question: What is the true story of Knuckles' battle with Iblis? If there's one thing we know about The Echidna Clan, it's that they are fixated on raw power. They're a warrior-focused society where the best fighter gets the highest honor and the most privileges. They were the ones who crafted The Master Emerald from the seven chaos emeralds. They were the ones who tracked down Sonic when he was a child with the intention of obtaining his power, before Long Claw wiped them out in her final struggle.

And who else do we know that was accidentally unleashed in a reckless pursuit of power?

Iblis, the raw power of the sun god Solaris. Iblis, who was sealed away within a child using the power of the chaos emeralds.

Now, there's no doubt that "The Flames of Disaster" in the SCU are very different from "The Flames of Disaster" in Sonic 06. In the movie universe the flames are merely a type of wieldable power rather than the name of an apocalyptic event. However... what better way to rewrite the fact that the echidna tribe nearly caused the end of the world and locked an immortal fire demon within an echidna child, than by pretending that The Flames of Disaster is just an inherent ability Knuckles unlocked through an epic battle?

What if "The Flames of Disaster" wasn't a power he obtained through a magnificent fight, but a power he survived after it was thrusted upon him by his elders? ... What if one of the many, many reasons reasons his father didn't let him join the fight was out of fear of what would happen if he cried?

Vox can understand Velvette just fine. They don't necessarily need to get along all the time, but they have a mutually beneficial contract that guarantees her support in the most efficient way possible, just how they both like it, short and strict and to the point. Vox does not understand Valentino. It drives him unimaginably, disgustingly insane. He knows how to handle him, make no mistake. Valentino is a never-ending powerhouse that wrangles out content from his employees like there's no tomorrow. He's proven himself to be Vox's most lucrative investment yet. He is resourceful, well-connected and most importantly predictable enough to rein in. Because he listens to you, because he needs you.

He is also, undeniably, out of his goddamn mind. Yet you've already invested too much in the corporate empire you've built together and there is no point turning back now that you have him so close to your side. It's OK however! He couldn't possibly be stupid enough to throw away the best partnership deal he's ever had just for the sake of something petty cause -oh, wait - he genuinely might just be that stupid and you never would've guessed because he's so cocksure of his bullshit that 80% of the time it ends up working in his favor anyway.

Fuck his life indeed. The kicker for this of course is that Valentino, genuinely does believe he has struck gold with Vox. Valentino is a clingy, possessive, immature, perverted, sadistic, egotistical man-child with severe rage issues and zero impulse control. No he is not aware of this at all. No he does not know why nobody is able to tolerate him and why every single person he gets close to hates his guts with every inch of their burning rotting souls. All he knows is that hell has now given him a flat faced prince in shining liquid crystal armour, riding on a cash filled horse with promises of power and luxury, who's practically handing him success on a silver platter. Doesn't mean that Val trusts him, doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy seeing him lose his shit. But at the end of the day vox has his back, and as long as Val keeps calling for him, he'll eventually turn up and make everything better. Cause hey if Vox hasn't left him yet for this long he must be doing something right. Right?

reasons why Ettore is Cyprian's father actually

CS Pacat has stated that there is a main character whose last name is a spoiler

Ettore is italian; Cyprian is described as "mediterranean" (the region where italy lies)

Ettore says that Cyprian reminds him of himself ("Ettore", before the reveal of his identity), though this could just as easily be strictly a reference to their shared cultural upbringing, training, attitudes, mannerisms, etc

Ettore is older than Stewards usually get, old enough to have sons Cyprian's and Marcus's age, especially if he fathered Marcus young (perhaps as a novitiate)

Ettore is strong enough to have lived this long without succumbing to his shadow, strong enough to drink and fuck and carouse without succumbing; Marcus was strong enough to match Justice, the strongest in the Hall, and Cyprian was not only on track to be better than both of them but also was strong enough to resist TDK's direct and intentional control of his shadow right after receiving it

Ettore left the Hall a long time ago for unknown reasons and has no known shieldmate

Euphemia (the Elder Steward) claimed in DR that Cyprian's father was her shieldmate, the assumption at the time being either that he had died 6 years ago or that she was referring to Jannick in a functional or honorary capacity; this would explain why Euphemia never took another shieldmate -- Justice confirmed that they cannot overlap the shieldmate bond or form a new one until the old one is severed by death; Euphemia's shieldmate didn't die, he simply chose to leave the Hall and their partnership; it may also explain why Euphemia still sent the kids to him for help, especially if there is more to the story of his leaving the Hall than we yet know

Ettore is a foil for Cyprian in the narrative, the character that directly challenges his beliefs and emphasizes his strengths and weaknesses through contrast and comparison; he is a cautionary tale of what Cyprian would become if he lost the faith and sense of duty that is essential to his character, which makes perfect sense of [functionally] a deadbeat dad introduced late in his son's life during a time of emotional crisis and change

bonus: not dead actually

Ettore was shot by Sinclair, yes, but Justice was shot too, aboard the Sealgair when we first were introduced to him, and he also cracked his head, and also spent quite a while unconscious facedown in water, and he walked it off!! i'm just saying, until we see Ettore's body and get confirmation of death, that roguish son of a bitch is fine

the fact that most of the people in this fandom don’t even seem to like the books😭if you didn’t enjoy canon why the fuck are you here. fandom is for nerds. this “fuck canon, canon doesn’t matter, well sirius and remus were ~straight~ in canon so i hate it!” shit is actively anti nerd. deeply annoying and also not even technically true.

Facts we know:

Sound and Tinn had a huge rivalry when they were younger

Sound likes the tough kind of love (the are we genuinely fighting or flirting? kind of deal)

Tinn, while seemed antagonistic towards Gun for a bit, is really a huge softie and simp who just wants to be a cute little boyfriend

They're not good at expressing their feelings (Sound didn't know how to talk to Win once he realized his feelings for him and it took Tinn years of failed attempts to get to where he is now with Gun)

They're both gay

Hypothesis:

Sound had a crush on Tinn (that he may have reciprocated) that Tinn completely misinterpreted as actual dislike of him and thus the rivalry was born
