It does say they are all dead however. I believe they were all trapped by Weaver. Weaver showed Ariel the truth. Ariel built the tomb, Tomb is a time dilation field powered by 7 soul cores of God level. I suspect when the war happened when they struck the Great Tomb it leaked the time field trapping them in time and weakening at night as the cores that power the Tomb cycle through the sky of the tomb. Some proof to this theory is Shadow himself Sunnys first nightmare dieing on the alter of Shadow accidentally making himself a sacrifice for the god of death. The spell said he made an offering to the god shadow. then said all the gods are dead. Then it said Shadow accepted his sacrifice and Shadows ripped the terror of the misty mountains apart.

Weaver isn't the forgotten god. He is merely a fragment like Mordrets reflections or Sunnys Shadows. So divine without the full power of Divinity. Weavers lineage keeps eating Shadows Lineage gaining divine power tho.

yes info overload. speculation is at a fever pitch. my brain is on fire whirring In non concentric circles. 1500 chapters of info taking a nose dive into a ocean of possible things that lead to all of this. all culminating in the insanity that is the last 40 chapters.

difficult to say think he will be burned by it. I don't think he can be truly corrupted while still bound by Nephis. Im just stupidly curious how much time has passed in their world. they spent a month in the desert. Very clearly years and years in the nightmare. The nightmare is time centric tho. so at a minimum of 1 months real time and up to several years.

Weavers lineage eats other divine lineages. Your comment wasn't well though out. Nightmare is a shadow that can enter dreams. Mad prince killed his Nightmare probably absorbing the power to enter dreams leading to Anakis Epiphone. As Nightmare Saint and The gremlin are part of his soul. He can absorb their power after killing them. When the crown filled him with rage he said he planned to do so after killing the defiled Night.

Ok I'm going to summarize my thoughts after reading the mind boggling last few chapters. I believe the gods to be alive and trapped in the nightmare desert trapped in a loop caused by the destruction of the pyramid aka Tomb of Ariel. Ariel wouldn't want that knowledge leaving likely put in a dilation field powered by sorcery and the sorcery powered by the seemingly immortal corpse and it's 7 divine soul cores. it blips at night possibly because the cores rotate around the river. But they are likely stuck in battle because someone struck the pyramid. It traps all the gods and Deamons while I think Weavers goal was to restore the power of the Dream God aka his parent. To this end he gave Ariel what he wanted and it was such a burden Ariel built the pyramid Tomb aka his trap for them all. As he could see fate using his divine artifact mask he lead them all by the nose to fight exactly where he wanted and trapped them. there in making them dead and alive at the same time as the war won't stop if they are unfrozen they will all die. Since they are frozen and he likely used all his Divine cores to power the spell to find a group of people to help him counter the corruption of dream by the void. Leading to Sunny and cohort 7 people all worthy and powerful in their own right. I believe he is also the one who took away the young prince of Valor or possibly is the one who died on the forgotten shore by one of the nine leading to the forgotten sea. Tho it could had also been Oblivion or Nether that died there. Oblivion or Nether are my primary opinion of who likely died to create the Forgotten sea Nether being my primary suspect due to close location of his stronghold in the misty mountains. Dream is gaining power absorbing the world's of the other gods. I still believe it to be that Sunny and Nephis's world is that of Shadow. Sunny seems to think it is The fire war gods however I can't see it being possible. I find myself irritated... 5 planets of sleepers and dreamers not 1 of them left a message telling the history they knew of the place their world's were sucked into. Almost positive the Sovereigns knew the world would merge with Dream Realm and that they should consolidate the humans to better protect them after all at least 1 sovereign was alive from before their world was effected by the Nightmare spell.

Furthering this comment it couldn't have been the Deamons as the creature that came down and was felled by one of the nine on the forgotten shore was a Deamon. the gods are depicted and described except 1 Dream but we know Dream is imprisoned. Therefore it had to be a Deamon to have died there and I think it might have been oblivion.

Can probably only have 1 lineage. technically he is a Divine shadow but that didn't give him Shadows lineage just a spark of divinity in preparation for receiving a divine lineage. Weaver really did deliberately put this boy directly in and on the path he is currently walking.

it could be that simply Sunny got Weavers lineage before he got Shadows. So he gains shadow powers while having weavers lineage and weavers lineage eats divinity to increase its potency.

No I theorize they are all alive the god of Dreams and nightmares is the void. The Dream world is a part of Dream like Dreams body or skin. inside is nightmare and void. I think the clash of the gods is still happening in a loop in the nightmare desert. i say their in a loop because there is shattered parts of the pyramid. A pyramid meant to contain only. outsiders inside are free to roam unless they cross the mouth of the river wiping their memory. what if it has caused a spin on the river and released the butterfly's the pyramid would go defensive as designed locking things in its immediate area in time. The spell said when sunny had his first nightmare he was sacrificing to the god of shadow all the gods are dead and Shadow accepted the sacrifice.

Also the spell told him all the gods are dead and Shadow accepted his offering.

is anyone but me realizing the only creatures that can physically touch a string of fate like the one binding neph and sunny is a god. there's only 3 ways I see this going for sunny. his bond is cut in a fight of some kind. a god or Demon is gracious enough to unslave him or ge is going to gain a piece of divinity and through it more of weavers powers.

If the dream god is alive that would make 2 gods alive technically. Shadow is death and there for paradoxical and cannot end. for as long as life is there so shall death be.

Remember this is what we know as 5th hand knowledge. The Deamons didn't know their origin till Nether challenged storm and then Weaver went searching for answers and gave those answers to Ariel. so what we're hearing is third hand knowledge written down by a regretful Ariel and possibly manipulated by Weaver to reach his goal of trapping all the gods and Deamons so he can try to rescue Dream.
