Ohh okay it's just a theory. Thank god. The thought of "him dying prompted the continent to lift" straight up didn't even occur to me. I 100% assumed the implication was that it started happening as soon as the dungeon was destroyed, it just took a few days to reach the surface (and a few days more after that to fully re-emerge, as is stated in canon)

#asks #im gonna look like an idiot if ryoko kui confirms hes dead but i. genuinely dont think she would #not after the work she put in to establish mithrun's character arc #having been a dungeon master and getting your identity devoured shouldn't be a death sentence. like #the text comes out and says that.#it says that having people who love you to fill the void helps you move past it #and thistle DOES have people looking out for him. hell even strangers he tried to kill want him to live and be safe #dungeon meshi doesnt kill characters without a really good reason. and there is no reason thistle needs to die.#it adds nothing to the text. hell it even takes AWAY from what the story has built.#and isnt the joke with yaad like #they expect him to wither away but it looks like???? hes going to get to live out the rest of this body's life as if time had stopped??#all the kingdom people too #so why should only thistle be dead for a crime everyone WANTS to forgive #is eager to forgive #wants him to be cognizant enough so that he can recognize he is being forgiven
