!! MAJOR JRWI EPISODE 114 SPOILERS AHEAD !!

-

I just had a sick and twisted fucking thought about episode 114 and I need to share it to the world.

Okay, so Chip realises his mistake- trusting Gillion's clone and failing to see the red flags because, well it's Gill (I could go on a rant about this too)- Gillion's clone has pushed him to the ground and is towering over him. If Chip could bleed, his nose would probably be bloody.

And at this exact moment, where Chip can't use his magic to defend himself and his best-friend is threatening to kill him- we cut back to the real Gillion, who is running up these flights of stairs away from a monster that could literally breathe on him and end his life, he's on 1HP.

AND HERE'S THE THING. HERE'S WHAT I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT.

Destiny's Blade glows in Gillion's hands and whispers that, 'Chip is about to die.'

Gillion- with zero hesitation- goes running to find him and save his life.

THIS SCENE HAS SO MANY LAYERS TO IT- YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW, MAN- ISTG.

So, for starters, Chip is undead- he physically cannot die, or at least not very easily; I'm guessing that it would take an incredibly powerful, god like entity/bad guy to actually end his undead life now. And yet, Destiny's Blade says that he's about to die.

The blade itself was designed for slaying the undead and the evil entities Gillion himself was designed to fight against- but when it comes to Chip, there's nothing Gillion wouldn't do to protect him with this sword. And that reflects on Destiny's Blade, I would imagine- the blade supports Gillion's destiny, his fight for good.

And to add to this, I don't know if Chip actually could've been killed by clone Gillion- but the idea that he came close and that the sword instinctually reached out to save his life is just- WRAH.

It also highlights just how scared Chip was, because he couldn't fight the clone even if he wanted to, not only because of the magic barrier- but because it's Gill, his co-captain, his best-friend, his paladin (a pirate and his paladin I'm sorry- I love them sm lmao).

And yes, Gillion is known for taking ridiculous risks to keep his friends safe, willing to take every blow and keep fighting like it doesn't hurt because he's a knight, he was trained for this, this is what he's good at- but he runs to find Chip, ON 1HP. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH- THIS MAN WAS IN PIECES, HIS SKIN HAD BEEN TAKEN FROM HIM, AND IF NOT FOR THE DEATH WARD HE PROBABLY WOULD'VE DIED. But he runs off to find him anyway, no hesitation, no thought of his own well-being, only that Chip is in serious danger and he needs to save him. He won't let him die twice.

PRAYING THAT SOMEONE READS THROUGH THIS TANGENT TBH BECAUSE I'M GOING INSANE RIGHT NOW- I'M SORRY THIS IS SO LONG LMAO 😭🙏

"Does your oath degree a promise to slay all evil before thee?

Or to crack the corruption that takes hold of this world

To strike swiftly enough, the very sea shall split

Even if the thread of fate poses an obstacle, you shall swear to sever it.

You shall take this oath with me."

DESTINYS BLADES OATH. IDK BUT CRACK THE CORRUPTION AND SPLIT THE SEA SEEM LIKE A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE OATH BECAUSE UH REMEMBER THE CORRUPTION SAVES THAT EVERYONE WAS MAKING? YEAH IDK SEEMS OMINOUS OR VERY COOL IF THEYRE GONNA REMEMBER AND INCORPORATE THIS

DB: I think perhaps there’s a line of us. We all had a destiny, perhaps we all failed. But we couldn’t give up. So now, it’s your turn. We will sever faith.

Gill: Wait, so if I die, am I gonna be a sword?

DB: I’d say it’d be on brand, but I’m not a fortune teller.

Gill: Well, that sounds cool. Hey, do you remember feeling like…chosen or anything when you were alive?

/The DM can roll for it/

Gill:…O-oh….I’m gonna be a sword…

/Natural 1 😊/

DB: Can’t recall. Don’t know my name, don’t know anything.

Okay. Okay wait. Hold on. We have SO much more information on Gill and everything involving him than we had then tho. We could piece sth together here. Okay wait. But like what if.

An entity threatens world stability

Caged in the deepest layers of infinity

The seal remains locked by a key of divinity

It’s release in time, inevitability.

So we understand now, that Gillion may be one of, and possibly a final Chosen One from the long line of Chosen One’s that presumably, (if Destiny’s Blade rolled better we’d know for sure) all had destiny and all failed. The characters we saw at the end of ep. 110 animatic suggests that there is something connecting them together, a lineage of sorts.

The real prophecy suggests that the end of the world as we know it is inevitable. That there is no true way to stop it. That this is the world’s DESTINY. It’s F A T E.

 Destiny’s Blade keeps talking abt severing the threads of fate. Could this be the fate that all the Chosen Ones are failing to sever? The world is doomed to perish, and there is a line of those blessed by all the major entities of this world that dedicate their lives attempting to find a way to change the world’s destiny, to find a way to destroy the Nameless Prince for good and prevent Mana’s inevitable succumbing to darkness. But they all failed, and so their spirits live on within the weapons they fought with, aiding the ones who come after them.

I mean, maybe? How do we feel about this one guys?

Man I've been playing through dual destinies and the visceral Apollo and Athena contrasts are making me go insane.

Your name is Apollo Justice. You are a lawyer. You're a pawn. You're a weapon. Your mentor is a jackass and your rival only sees you as a ghost of his brother. You're pushed around town to run chores you aren't being rewarded for. You are volunteered to deliver revenge on behalf of your jackass mentor, who refuses to tell you anything because it might spoil his game. When you falter, everyone tells you to learn to stand up on your own. Your mother finally learns of your existence, but she isn't ready, so everyone agrees not to tell you. After all, it's her feelings that are at stake. Apollo? It's never about Apollo.

Your name is Athena Cykes. You are a lawyer. You got here all by yourself, clawed your way to it all on your own. Your mentor set aside space in his life to take you under his wing, to offer advice and security. He takes over when you falter, and walks you through everything he's doing, so you can one day stand without assistance. You keep working, so so hard, because everyone in the courtroom is a familiar face. Your childhood friend. Your mentor. Your coworker who is slowly losing it, and you're not sure why, but you're pretty sure it's your fault. The man who gave up everything for you. Athena? Everything is about Athena.

Neither of you is okay.

im a little surprised i've never seen more stuff about the role Destiny's Blade could/would play in Fish n Chips

like. when Gillion is in the dungeon, DB sticks with Chip and is so kind to him, and even praises him to Gillion when Gill gets back. in the promised bastion, the second DB teleports to Gillion there's nothing else spoken than "Chip is about to die" and Gillion fucking blue-blurs it up the building to get to him

aren't Gillion and Destiny's Blade soulbound or something? hm?? i'm just saying. that silly sword cares about Chip just as much as Gillion does

[wasyago]

we're at it again🕺

Saw a level 1 player getting their first taste of the time-honored tradition of "oh, shit, I didn't realize a heavy enemy was about to drop on me"
