So, does the author have something against Susanne? Obviously there's spoilers for book 7
At the point where they are doing the floor challenge for floor 6 of Minkalla. Aster had it pretty easy, Liz was rough but still good.
Then there's Sue. OG timeline her dad disappears when reaching T15, mom commits superslide. She goes into the challenge and this time dad disappears after her brother decides he wants to be a pendulum, then her mom tries to commit, and her dad disappears. Why is her life so rough dude?
The more she triumphs over adversity, the more badass she is. So maybe the author is just trying to showcase how amazing she is considering all she's overcome to be who she is now.
Maybe. Just seems weird when looking at everyone's dreams, then there's Matt. Dream 1: parents alive and aster is still around. Dream 2: gets into a guild and thrives
Dream 6, becomes a terrorist, and kills Liz
Dream 7, becomes the human battery he's afraid of< immortal, locked in a cell
Yea, he had 2 that were particularly bad. But 4 out of the 6 being good or decent compared to most of Sue and Liz' being terrible...
The alternate lives floor challenge is based on each character's thoughts about thier own life. Given Suzanne's history and personality, I think those lives are totally in character for her. She's extremely dedicated and hard working, but not exactly hopeful.
I don’t want to give any spoilers, but I will be curious what you will say when they all finish this floor.
Yea. Sue had it rough, but Liz got the short end of the straw as far as how her dreams went for most of them. Matt's last one was pretty dark as well
Minkalla shows you your dreams and your fears. I think it's kind of like mushrooms. What you take in, you get back amplified. Matt has found Liz so he has some happy with a few fears left. Suzanne doesn't really have any happiness except her sword. So she has less happiness for minkalla to amplify. At least that's my theory.
