Marianne's Illusion/Brainwashing (WHAT IS THE TRUTH)

Maevix August 29, 2024 3:38 pm

So, it's a bit confusing. We know Mari switched their places essentially; switching appearances (but not names?) and brainwashing everyone into believing that the love they held was towards her and not MC (Alyssa at the time).

What's not clear to me is which appearance was switched to who, since in the spoilers it's been hinted at that originally MC was the one with golden eyes (hence why her eyes turn golden when she uses the spirits magic as Aisha). But in the flashback we just saw Alyssa is clearly still black haired and green eyed. Plus, It makes sense (from a plot standpoint) that the other siblings would initially dislike Mari as an outcast/illegitimate child.

If MC was originally the golden eyed child then it would make less sense if everyone suddenly loved her and for some reason Mari, the legitimate black haired green eyed child, was not. But then, why the similarities between Aisha and Marianne now?

Not to mention, when she was accused, Alyssa very clearly tried to reach out to her older brother, on account of them sharing both the same mother and father. By then, Mari had switched them, so what did the family see? We saw her (Alyssa) as dark haired and green eyed, did they see white hair and golden eyes?

In other words, when we're being shown anything involving Alyssa and Marianne, are we seeing the truth or the illusion created by Mari.

What I'm trying to say is that the mirror scene explained NOTHING to me XD

    Soooo basically in everyone's eyes the MC (black hair green eye girl) was seen as marriane (the white hair black magic psycho bish)
    And the white hair black magic psycho bish was seen as the Alyssa (green eye black hair)
    Marianne actually swtiched their appearance so when (green eye black hair)Alyssa was accused n bought infront of the family, everyone saw her as (white hair black psycho bish) Marianne
    In everyone's pov Alyssa was Marriane and Marriane was Alyssa. But the names were not swtiched yes. Everyone was brainwashed into thinkin' the memories they had with Alyssa was actually WITH Marriane.

    (While we readers saw her as Alyssa and we were confused bcoz this was probably part of the plot which was to be revealed to us in the later chapters like now and so the MIRROR reflection showed us the reason why Alyssa was killed)
    Since the golden eye silver hair girl (our main MC right now) has the soul of Alyssa, it's the reason why her reflection was seen as Marianne not not Alyssa bcoz of the black magic brain washing thingy

    It's just that I'm not convinced that MC is originally black haired and green eyed. I genuinely think that that's the illusion Marianne placed on everyone (including us the readers) cuz there's spoilers from way back that say that MC was originally the one who was white haired and golden eyed.

    Like, I understand why what you said is what everyone is thinking rn but I still think that when Marianne looked in the mirror she was seeing her "original" self. Same for when MC saw herself in the mirror in her dream.

    Mirrors are often used as a way to show "the truth" in fiction, or more accurately, they show your soul. So it doesn't make sense to me for it to show the illusion.

    Why is it so? I'm curious on why you think that way now Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
    Becoz the black hair green eye girl resembles her parents noh? While that white crazy bish doesn't have any resemblance?!?

    Hmmmm this definitely is an interesting concept but I also feel I agree with Jasper's opinion on what really went down. However, I'm definitely intrigued by your thoughts and completely open to the fact that this could be true so I'm interested to see what will be revealed in future chapters (=・ω・=)
