I recommend that you should read through build 3.1 until the "7 days left" day to understand this and for context ( most these paragraphs are from the help of google and other search engines)
SPOILERS AHEAD
You have been warned
This update is giving a headache of who is the mastermind behind it but in this same update I have a theory of what the future may hold and who it might be considering what is said in the beginning of the 7 days left prompt of us.
Since they said the one who talked in the dream,in which there are Valor, Courage, Compassion, and Innocence. That 2 had fallen and 2 remain and considering the colors of the text might have been hinting who we are talking to from the previous nights.
All 4 of them are traits of humans and all for of them are considered as "Virtues" but in this novel manipulation is of the big part of this murder mystery. One big example stated in the novel is putting all of the advocates against one another as the presumed motive of the killer is disharmony and chaos of the advocates of different planets and putting this into perspective, there are some ways of these "Virtues" can be used or attain this goal
1.Valor/Courage- These traits are synonymous to each other due to their concepts overlapping but the main difference between them are Valor is more specific in being the "Hero of the story" or similar tropes and Courage being confronting fears in any context. In which both of these can be used to manipulate people on being
Misguided Actions
When valor and courage are misdirected or manipulated, individuals can be persuaded to engage in harmful actions under the mistaken belief that their actions are justified or serve a greater cause. In these instances, genuine bravery is present, but it is detached from ethical considerations. The outcome is the application of inner strength towards destructive or negative outcomes (these are from google)
Compassion- This trait is defined as the deep awareness of and sympathy for another person's suffering or misfortune, coupled with a genuine desire and motivation to take action to alleviate or end that suffering. Even though this trait is helping others it can also be used to manipulate people one example of this is
Exploitation of Trust
Compassionate people, being naturally trusting and helpful, can be easily taken advantage of by individuals who feign need or distress for personal gain.
Innocence - refers to a state of being free from moral wrongdoing, guilt, or sin. It implies purity of heart and mind, and an unfamiliarity with the negative, complex, or darker aspects of human nature and the world. And one big example of manipulation can be used in this is
Emotional Blackmail and Guilt
A manipulator can leverage the innocent person's purity of intent against them. They might imply that questioning the manipulator is "unkind" or "wrong," making the innocent person feel guilty for having any doubts. This prevents them from trusting their own instincts.
The examples I given to each trait are some ways the characters in the game can/might use for the disharmony of the advocates and mostly I've observed of the characters like Valor and Courage maybe manipulating the MC and Kai(due to one quote that something is saying the Vul is the killer) to some extent. Or Arcadia and her brother using Compassion and Innocence(This one is a stretch).
And what the voice (in which I suspect to be Innocence) said that 2 Have fallen and 2 Remain might have been a lie since there have been colored text with the same color as the other traits due to mainly the nightmare of the other night and what Kai's word of him suspecting who the killer he think is. And thinking someone is innocent is not the same as them being trustworthy.
That's all I could think of since the story haven't finished yet and I'm sorry if this post is kind of a mess it's literally 3 am me writing this so forgive me.
I found pretty weird bug on Max's clothing in day 10 when visiting the beach
Also it happened twice in this singular conversation in the beginning and the almost the end of it (srry for sending it here but I really don't know where to report this bug)
I haven't cried so hard like this since finishing Adastra and I think this vn is one of the best VNs I ever read comparing to Adastra this vn is the next best one like a 15/10 in the score and my love to this heartwarming vn
I just finished all the available content up until now and I have to say this VN is the one of the best or yet the best VNs I ever read and all of them have great character development and unique personalities and abilities here are my opinion on each route
Tate's Route
Tate is just a broken person that needs someone in his life and the MC filled that someone and there is a lot of pictures in his gallery and lastly I love the conclusion it was heartwarming
Dallan's Route (I might be bias)
Dallan is just a person who wants to be treated normally and besides Chelsie,Tate,Aiden and the other leaders and vices the MC treated him normally like every should instead of being a kissass and I like how he is the sweet giant of the group and most powerful one(as I'd gather)I can't wait for chapter 2 since he is my favourite character among them
Aiden's route
Aiden is a person who wants to be loved but not for just his abilities (like the his father, the headmaster) and his route gave answer to the questions I thought like (who is his anchor for the teleportation type spells,or why is he so moody, or why he has his work done so quickly) at the end it was surprising yet the more you think of it the more it makes sense kind of way
Therium's route (I don't like him,sorry)
His route is more on the heavy lore from what I gathered he is working for someone to overthrow the academy? I'm not sure but that's my theory for now but they are using the MC as the plan A and Alvy as plan B of the operations I don't really like him but I don't hate him either it's just he's not my type
Alvy's route
Well his route not yet complete from what I gathered he is like the MC but just with more family problems and minus scribbles
That's my opinion on all available routes and if we're to rate this VN out of 10 it would be a 15/10 a total overkill and I hope MindOfFur won't trash this project in the future since it is one of the best ones
I loved every second of the last days of sissel's route and I don't regret waiting for it because it was worth the wait it heart warming and made my ass cry for like a whole 30 mins ;-;
I hope you create and make more of these masterpieces Shirokoi :]
In first impression I thought this was an ordinary vn when I found it but after reading though it i am shocked how good it is if I were to rate it,it will be a 10/10 one the best ones I ever read and with a heartwarming ending and I am excited for their next project if there is one. =)
Oh don't worry I can wait for the new episodes since as of I know a new chapter a new character?and I appreciate you working hard on this even in your free time I am really excited for the future senerios that will be coming up
Plus this VN is really unique concept it's not a simple slice of life it's a isekai and you don't see that everyday in a VN soo keep up the good work <3
I recently finished chapter 3 and i can't deny that this VN is one of the best ones I have recently read in my opinion this VN is a 10/10 and I predicted the futures chapters are gonna be awesome and can't wait for the updates
This is the most cute and heartwarming VN I ever seen and I can't even wait for the next update to come out I really liked it and this a 5 star VN if I ever seen one; I like how it's was a sudden beginning and ended with a sweet note =]
Even though it just released I really can't wait for the next update if the VN will be updated soon
I recently finished chapter 5 and I can really say that this VN is good I really liked they reused Baxter and I liked this happened after the events of the previous VN .10/10 so far I can't wait for the new chapters and I really liked there is song in the VN so unique I can't even think how long I can wait tho
This VN is so good with the characters, their relationship with each other and the overall plot of the routes and I finished the 4th build and I can't wait for the next one I hope it's soon ^u^
Is that really the end of the sissel route I expect to be more ya know more sweet or like sissel winning the competition or something but still I still loved the update really freshen up from old saves of mine
That is fine I can wait for it besides there is a lot more material in this site than I thought anyways so I don't mind waiting a month or two for some juicy content
I really got invested into visual novels recently and by far this is one the best I have seen so far even though it's incomplete also i recommend other visual novels if like romantic/lore heavy novel I recommend "Repeat"(it's nsfw so I warned you ) or the other visual novel "kibbleton University" (it's also nsfw) made by the same team that made WTDL
