The Möbius strip around Amphoreus, and its moniker of "Eternal Land", lend a lot of weight to this assumption. 9/9

At this point we don't know what's in store yet, but the setup seems to be one where Amphoreus is a land trapped in a cycle of Titanomachies that reoccur when the new gods lose their reason and get replaced by ascended mortals. 8/9

Furthermore, the Coreflame is acquired by felling its corresponding Titan: in Greek myths, the Titans are the precursor gods to the Olympians, and only by felling them (Titanomachy) the Olympians acquire peace and the right to live. 7/9

The fate of the Chrysos Heirs is to become demigods: the Coreflame is their "ambrosia".
Ganymede's original myth shows that it's specifically how a mortal acquires godhood. 6/9

Speaking of the Chrysos Heirs, they are described as having "golden blood", but I don't believe it's meant to be literal: in Greek mythology, Olympian gods preserve their immortality and youthfulness through the consumption of nectar and ambrosia, which are golden in color. 5/9

Which leads us to Castorice, possibly the third sister: she has face blindness, and her power lets her inflict death on virtue of her presence. Blindness seems to be a reoccurring theme in the 3 Chrysos Heirs most closely linked with life and death in Amphoreus. 4/9

Interestingly, Tribbie and her sisters seem to be an entity in three bodies. One has a blindfold, one has an eye covered, and the playable one has both eyes uncovered. They also manage time and space, so they might be another one of Amphoreus' Moirae. 3/9

In Greek mythology, the Moirae are the goddesses of fate that spin, weave and cut the thread of life for every living being. They are blind, with one eye shared among them, much like Aglaea is blind but "sees" through her threads. The Moirae, also, predate Olympian gods. 2/9

Let's start with the golden threads: in optional dialogue, Aglaea states that they're becoming less and less. She might be referring to the threads of life of each person in Amphoreus, and she might be one of the Moirae, the weaver of life. 1/9

Note to self to e2 Mudrock, she deserves it after holding the top lane in SL-S-4 practically by herself

Finished the event shop at least, I might not bother with SL-S-5 because my brain hurts
