He wanted Cheryl to be his queen…wtf. (︶︿︶)＝凸

Yeah I was a bit disappointed by that too and it has me thinking *has* the story *actually* changed at all??

Right :(

Trauma is much more profound than that, he was severely abused for a long time and he don't even know this new Lyna is a whole different person, his abuser doesn't exist anymore (kinda). I can't blame him if he so chooses to continue with revenge, we are being swayed by the plot into finding her pitiful, but if it were only his pov we'd be lived by him forgiving her.

But he does know that she is a different person. He only wants revenge bc this current Lyna abandoned him. Which is actually so dumb and therefore very dissapointing that he wanted Cheryl to be his wife.

Does he know? Even so, Lyna should have helped him, all she did was run away and hide. Revenge won't do him any good, but I can't blame him for wanting it cuz she kinda turned a blind eye, leaving him as fucked as he was to his own sort

I know he has every right to do that after everything he went through but the whole time I thought that he sees Cheryl only as a friend and now it turns out he always saw her as a marriage partner is annoying me, like the other person said it makes me wonder if anything changed at all…

Oh I'm not saying he *should* end up with Illiana and I'm disappointed or anything like that, more that all of her actions until now have been in an attempt to change the storyline so that she doesn't die, but we're seeing that it seems like nothing has actually changed it has just been a delay of the process, so to speak. It's really interesting to me!

I think he might with her talking about him being a novel character and stuff, either he knows or he thinks she's incredibly mentally unwell and will see it as a chance to get her entirely dependent on him (actually a strong possibility considering how much he is leaning into "don't worry, you can trust me"). Also agreed I think she was just panicking, scared, didn't think things through very well and was just looking for a temporary easy solution while she tried to figure out how to get back to the real world, which it turns out didn't have an easy solution. That all came back to bite her for sure.
