Revisiting a conversation in Act 3 after Act 8
This obviously contains spoilers for Act 8. Consider yourself warned.
>! I was revisiting the dialogue from that time cause I thought what the corrupted moon marrow (Sonnet) said was pretty weird at the time and turns out they dropped hints as early as then that Columbina went to the past. I'll post it and bold some text that proves it but am absolutely amazed that MHY foreshadowed it this early.
>! (The Traveler drains the Abyssal energy from the marrow, exposing its true red color)
>! ???: So cold...
>! ???: Is it you? Are you here?
>! Paimon: Huh? Are you talking to us?
>! ???: **At long last... I can see you once more** (once more cause Columbina met them in the past) . Our fates have crossed... and I am finally free.
>! ???: I'm sorry... I lied to you. **Even knowing what was to come** (Columbina told them that they would die), I still couldn't let go of the fear in my heart as death drew near.
>! ???: The moment the moon shattered, my body began to split apart piece by piece... like I was being cut into pieces by a thousand blunt blades. My thoughts scattered as the cold crept in... but I could not bear to fade away like that...
>! ???: **Tell me, what was it that brought you to us, all that time ago?** If only I had possessed your courage... Then, I might have been spared this torment more painful than death...
>! ???: **You look so puzzled... Heh, that's how I felt too... when I first saw you**...
>! ???: But trust me when I say... that everything happens for a reason. Farewell, **Hypo**... (ALMOST SAID HYPOSELENIA)
>! The Damselette: ...
>! Paimon: What was that all about? Was that the Goddess of the Iridescent Moon...?
>! Paimon: **It sounded like she was speaking to a long-lost friend**... but none of us have ever met her before, right?
>! The Damselette: Perhaps... she took me for the Goddess of the Frost Moon she once knew. (clueless Columbina :^) )
>! The Damselette: For a fading soul like hers, our auras must be too similar to tell apart.
>! Paimon: Hmm... **It felt like there was a deeper meaning to what she was saying...** (PAIMON NOTICING!!! and completely right too!)
>! Paimon: But anyway, we've got the Iridescent Moon's marrow now. That should help you regain your strength, right?
>! Paimon: Alright, time to leave this place and meet back up with Arlecchino. Let's go!
Just absolutely brilliant writing by MHY to tell us straight up but have us not know, I love it!

"This early"? It's literally part of the same story arc. 😭
