MAT NEARLY JUST GAVE AWAY WHAT THEY WERE DOING AGAIN
November 12, 2025 at 7:11 PM
did Perrin just ride his horse into the river. Did Perrin just drown his horse
November 12, 2025 at 6:52 PM
and of COURSE they run into the trollocs

"If you touch it, it will kill you."

Don't you love the magic mist worm that kills you instantly
November 12, 2025 at 6:39 PM
The reason they chose this city is because [insert long lore dump here] and now Trollocs won't enter the city, but there are other things in there.

....but now they have to leave in the middle of the night when the monsters are awake because trillocs have entered the city

OH NO. OH WOW. THE RANDOM STRANGER PROMISING TREASURE WAS A MONSTER. WHO COULDA FUCKING GUESSED
November 12, 2025 at 7:51 AM
these morons would fall for the candy in a minivan trick without question
November 12, 2025 at 7:47 AM
YOU FIND A STRANGER IN AN ABANDONED CITY AND YOU FOLLOW HIM INTO THE DARKNESS BECAUSE HE SAYS HE HAS TREASURE FOR YOU??????

I think the giant turtle has lived so long in the Swamps of Sadness that it can't really be happy anymore. At least it told Atreyu something useful
November 11, 2025 at 8:07 AM
Ah we're getting to the parts where Bastian himself starts affecting the story
November 11, 2025 at 8:06 AM
The scene where the horse dies is much worse now that it could talk
November 11, 2025 at 7:59 AM
Atreyu dreamt about a purple buffalo (the ones from his homeland) a few times. He had the opportunity to kill it but wouldn't (or couldn't). And then because he let it live the buffalo gave him advice

Twice now we have been told "that is another story and shall be told another time." Does that mean later on in the book or does it mean it's not important enough to tell us during this one?
November 11, 2025 at 7:45 AM
I don't really care for magic systems, the worlds and characters are much more important for me. Magic is just magic it doesn't need rules
November 11, 2025 at 7:43 AM
Bastian is rationing his own food as if he is also on a Quest lmao
November 11, 2025 at 7:42 AM
The.... horse can talk?
November 11, 2025 at 7:39 AM
Atreyu is 10 years old
November 11, 2025 at 7:34 AM
Squinting very suspiciously at the name "Greenskins." Ende has already used "like an Indian" twice in this book
November 11, 2025 at 7:30 AM
The people of Fantastica have their own version of "Common" ie the common language that everyone around the world uses to communicate in Fantasy settings, and in Fantastica it is called Fantastican. Every species also has their own language, but they only use it amongst themselves
November 11, 2025 at 7:25 AM
Oh Bastian has serious familial issues huh
November 11, 2025 at 7:23 AM
I'm not even gonna attempt to describe the Ivory Tower but that's where we are right now, and there are so many messengers there that there's a wait time to see the Empress
November 11, 2025 at 7:08 AM
this is the kind of whimsical fantasy where the author goes "it's all made up so why not have some fun with it" and yes it is very intriguing and very fun
November 11, 2025 at 7:07 AM
also the PDF I'm reading still has the different colored text, so I can see when the red ink was used vs not, which is interesting
November 11, 2025 at 7:02 AM
Ah so Bastian can physically feel and hear every part of this book not just certain bits of it. I wonder if the effects get stronger the farther he goes in
November 11, 2025 at 7:01 AM
oh right, everyone's homes are disappearing and that's why everyone is going to the empress
