Castoff

I don’t know if I should be envious of Arianna because she can instantly clean and dry herself . . . or pity Frankie and ask Vector help out the poor trembling puppy over there. Maybe this’ll be the part where Frankie’s secret will be revealed (like Arianna pulling Frankie over to hurry up and ending up taking out his arm like Lego pieces IF he’s a cyborg, lol).

Now, for Castoff World Theories, I’m gonna make some summaries in case I forgot.
[1.] Arianna or Zera Marcel are either of the two in the prologue (the one at the center of the Castoff spell or the one watching behind the door). Though none of them match up with the Arianna in Zera’s memory (different hairstyle)
[2.] I’m 70% on Arianna has been revived and 30% on she’s a different person. Firstly, because she had been described as “the girl *reborn* in the flames”. I was originally 90% but listening to her playlist mostly about a woman in disguise/ a liar, I deducted it. I haven’t seen Arianna as the type to lie so far. Secretive and mysterious she may be, but I don’t remember her lying to either Vector or Frankie. She simply evades the questions or use ambiguous words to keep a secret. Her personality is too blunt and straightforward to be the foxy type, so I can only think that the “lie” she’s keeping is either her identity or her death.
[3.] Are elves actually discriminated or something else? Like normal people’s reaction to those who are previous enemies of war? I know this seems out of the blue considering that Zera is a captain and well-respected. But I remember him saying that the Queen sent him to do diplomatic jobs to “make the dog bark at the other dogs” or something. Ever since then, I thought that he was sent to the Elf kingdom or territory earlier to make sure the peace treaty or whatever stay ensured. There’s also the thing with Vector putting away a book about “Chronicles of the Dark War”. It makes me think that Humans may have been at war with the Elves before. There’s also the thing where I don’t see many Elves around.
[4.] A follow up on #3, “The Dark War” may have been a war with the Elves or other countries like Feron. This may be the reason for the “Castoff Spell” to be cast in the first place which ended the war or enriched the country with magic and made them the only country with it (all speculation).
[5.] Arianna belongs to a guild/party/gang called Black Wing(s?). The other members are Grey (the healer? The one she talks with when Vector’s passed out) and Flynn (the leader?). She seemed to be important in the group management too since one of them wasn’t too happy that she’s taking too long on her solo mission. And the other one seems to find it a waste not to turn Vector in. I’m not sure if they’ll turn into Vector’s enemies later because they wanted Arianna back and he’s in the way.
[6.] Not really a theory, but it’ll be bittersweet if the one Arianna was searching for actually turned out to be Zera. Sweet in the sense that she was searching for him and they both use the tracking spell at each other that doesn’t work for some reason (probably because she’s a walking dead). Bitter in the sense that Zera basically made Arianna a wanted fugitive in the whole nation. I mean, wth Zera. If she turned out to be the SAME Arianna, you’re gonna screw this over the second time.

[7.] Arianna and Zera may either be cousins or close friends or one of them are adopted. I don’t think directly related people (like siblings) would describe each other as someone they are very close to long ago. That’s just strange. Also, in their playlist, there are songs that suspiciously sounds like being betrayed by their lover or a love gone.

Tbh, I want to see Arianna’s previous party. I’m curious to how they are going to react about Vector and how Vector is going to react to them.
