Currently, there was only one person sitting in front of the window. It was a pretty young woman in a neat school uniform, who was absentmindedly eating cup ramen while studying the screen of her communicator with a serious expression. She had pale skin and black hair, just like him.

Hear me out. All of the Weaves he's collected so far, are simply something to strengthen his constitution, so he can withstand observing fate.
A piece of Weaver's soul had been left in the heart of Ariel's Tomb. Perhaps the Thieving Bird had become obsessed with the Demon of Fate? The description of the [Drop of Ichor] said that it had been enamored by Weaver's beautiful eyes, after all. Not to mention that it had gone mad after witnessing the reflection of the Void frozen in Weaver's pupil.

Instead, six identical versions of him were sitting in a semicircle around him, all clad in fearsome onyx armor, staring at him with confused expressions.

Only a chest full worth of Nightmares...
Cassie's face was not wistful or sad. Instead, it was full of resolve and determination… impatience, even. It was as though she had been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.

Based Sunny
Sunny could not remember the last time he had watched someone go into battle on his behalf. It must have happened occasionally, but he was usually the one doing the fighting. In Antarctica, he had carried thousands of refugees on his back across the frozen hellscape… which had seemed like a burden, at the time.

I remember Castor... We all now what his motives for 'selflessness' were...
Almost every action Cassie had taken was for their benefit. They would have never made it that far without her. From start to finish, she had been nothing but a selfless ally, putting herself in harm's way on numerous occasions. Finding the scattered members of the cohort, escaping Aletheia's Island, surviving the depths of the Great River… none of that would have been possible without her.

After wasting its time for months, the shadow that had been following Cassie finally noticed something strange about her movements.

Just because it's their Third Nightmare though, doesn't mean it's the child's. I would say it's more likely to be Dormant or Awakened at best. Still a pretty dope head start, though.
"Five weeks? Maybe six. Depends on the wind and the obstacles we'll meet along the way."

Keeping a log for her cohort, explaining her behaviour, until the inevitable point she knows she'll die?
Luckily, Cassie was not doing anything to give credence to the insinuations made by the Sin of Solace. The only peculiar thing Sunny discovered was that she had developed the habit of keeping a diary, at some point.

So I just thought the same thing, but it does not do so completely. It would be a real G3 move to give us that fake notion. He specifically said they had no access to Memories. But we are easy to forget, because Quiet Dancer is a weapon, that it's an Echo.
Quiet Dancer… that was Cassie's Echo.

I've got goosebumps.

It was mentioned earlier that even if he won the battle in their Soul Sea, he would become Defiled.
If not for his mirror-like eyes, she would not have recognized Mordret of Valor… Soul Stealer. His original body.

Can't beat the Shadow Chair tho
[Well, in person? No. He sort of projected himself via ambient mana. I don't think I can explain it better than that. Looked like a demon larva, except… big. And on a chair. Throne. Thing. Except the chair is alive. No wait, the chair is part of him, and he is alive, so the chair is too. Alive.]
