#night swan the prequel

[not-so-brave-toaster]

Hi guys

[frostyblustar]

SO I HAD A THOUGHT!

What if, since Night Swan is human, she values coaches as less than people? Like since they’re not human, she doesn’t see them as worth as much.

That would explain her using them as puppets with no remorse, she doesn’t think they have real emotions or anything.

Could be a reason she takes a liking to Sara as well.

WHY HAVE I NEVER THOUGHT OF THIS BEFORE!

Just learned that these two have the same dancer

The Traveler has a very specific type, doesn’t he?

POV: The Traveler teaching Night Swan how to open portals

Spoilers for Night Swan Prequel event

What the event confirms without argument:

- Leda is the Night Swan’s real name. We been knew.

- Leda is originally from Earth. Biggest plot twist of the year AND confirms that this is what the former Loremaster meant when she said that The Night Swan and Sara had something in common.

- The Traveler brought Leda to the Danceverses and taught her how to open portals. Probably other Flow Magic as well, but point is, as I said before, everything that happens in the story mode is ENTIRELY THE TRAVELER’S FAULT

- That Night Swan and the Traveler were in love at one point in their youth. *gag*

- That at one point, they broke it off. *yay*

- At one point after breaking it off, Leda went on her own and became obsessed with perfection, and with a little helping of Dark Flow, became the Night Swan we know, we love, and serves today.

- That Discoball existed before Wanderlust. This is the biggest question mark of the event, since Discoball was first confirmed to have been created by the Traveler to appease Wanderlust when he was a kid. This could mean that either The Traveler lost the Discoball that brought Leda to the Danceverses and made a new one for Wanderlust or, what I think most likely, that the Traveler gave Wanderlust his own Discoball instead of creating a new one out of thin air, and in the comic we see him just conjuring them instead of building her from scratch.

What the event DOESN’T confirm:

- Whether or not Jack is the Traveler’s son. There’s no hide or hair of him ANYWHERE in this event that I could find (edit 1: unless you count “If You Wanna Party” and “Swan Lake” but they’re not new info and have nothing to do with this point, so I ignored them). The tasks and rewards are from Wanderlust’s explore section and not Jack’s shine, which would be expected from a Night Swan event considering most Night Swan related rewards come from him (Like Majesty). Point is, Jack has little to no connect to this event (edit 2: refer to edit 1). You could imply that he is, but implication is not confirmation. If anything, this could be proof that Sara and Jack are siblings more than Wander and Jack, cause now Sara and Jack have more in common (edit 3: Jack and Sara being siblings has as much evidence as Jack and Wanderlust being siblings, which is little to nothing. This is a massive joke that I’m going to run with until Ubisoft dares ruin it for me). Could this change with a new social media post by the team? Yes, but for now, we can exhale in relief.

- That the Traveler cheated on Si’Ha Nova. This will probably be clarified by the team later, but based on how young the two look, it’s safe to assume that Murder on the Dancefloor happened MANY years prior to the Traveler and Si’Ha meeting for the first time. What that means for their relationship is still to be seen.

With that out of the way, I can safely deploy this meme.

Plot twist: The Lazy Song is Jack’s father and gave him his love of Bruno Mars

Evidence:

He is an explorer, so it would make sense for him to have been exploring Eternyx and met Leda

He is clumsy, lazy, and an overall silly guy, so Leda may have found him charming or seen him as easy to manipulate

The JD Team has been dropping lots of hints at it being Orion, so maybe Baiana is TLS but older? I could see it

Just Dance, I demand ANSWERS!!!!

The Night Swan, aka Leda, is HUMAN LIKE SARA

Which makes Jack half human! Can he leave the Danceverse? Can Leda leave again, or is she stuck? She stayed by choice, apparently judging by the ending of Murder on the Dance Floor

How did she get her powers? Was it from spending too much time in The Travelers' domain and dancing with him? Or was this her destiny, and he knew that?

When do we meet Jack's dad?

I know it's not with The Traveler... at least I don't think

What caused her to turn to the dark side? Her powers were already dark and she had the dark Swan theme when she was brought in

How old is Leda every time we see her?

What does this mean for Sara?!

Also, when was Jack born, and did he have rapid aging like WanderLust did?

So many questions!

Also, since we got that one song that was originally cut about Leda's past, will we get more Jack??? I demand more Jack and WanderLust

My playlist is on shuffle and I just got Murder on the Dancefloor, Sweet Dreams (placeholder for Darkest Hour), and Witch back to back in that order…

I think Night Swan hacked my phone 💀

Lore behind the name Leda

For the Just Dance theorists!

A friend of mine just shared this with me and I can’t believe I haven’t heard anyone in the fandom drop this before. (Someone might’ve mentioned it I just haven’t come across it yet)

Turns out the name Leda refers to a figure in Greek mythology, the mother of Helen of Troy. In some stories, she was seduced (more or less) by Zeus disguised as a SWAN, resulting in the birth of Helen.

(There’s plenty of art of it and I’d show some except it’s pretty nsfw)

That being said, I can’t help but think that this symbolism relates not only to Night Swan, but also portrays The Traveller as Zeus (e.g. godlike figure, essentially the main character of the JD pantheon).

I’m still holding onto The Traveler NOT being Jack Rose’s dad but…this is kind of hard to ignore.

If Leda and Sara can do it, so can I!

Goodbye✌️
