We're back. The theories and questions resume.

Hey so how the fuck did the Wild Hunt even get in?

I mean, we are lead to believe that the school is more-so off limits to the now starving creatures in limbo due to the Deans power. The Deans don't go out themselves because of said creatures having a "vendetta" against them.

What makes The Wild Hunt so powerful to open gates that are presumably closed off to anyone but students? sure; from what a lot of us have concluded that the Wild Hunt is Theo, a former pupil of Nevermore Academy. However, it makes no sense with his current state why he would be permitted in if it means less students to play the game since they're being injured or worse.

This could be a sick ploy by the Deans to really see how the relationship of Theodore and Lenore affect each other after death but I can only be so sure. They are meddling with the relationship of Lenore and Annabel to pin them against each other (and kind of failing to) so that can solidify the claim.

That said, how are the Deans even sustaining their power in the school? Are they also not starving like the rest of these creatures? Would they be taking the students who have failed the exam and consuming them, then? Giving them time to go on with the game without devouring the enrolled students? Could this also be one of the reasons the place of limbo is so desolate since the beings that live there are going so hungry?

So many questions. I need a conspiracy board at this point and I'm not even covering the relationship of Lenore and Annabel, Lenore's Spectre and this "hierarchy" of powerful beings in Nevermore.

Funny thing about conspiracy boards is that they are so close yet so far, though. Feel free to add, dispute, elaborate if you would like, of course.

What's crazy is that I could've made the theory post about Theo being "The wild hunt" months earlier than I did based on his scruffy hair and stag appearance alone ... and just...didn't. And now, he has lightning coming out the antlers and hunting dogs following him??? Not to mention the name of the creature.

Not one person could convince me it's not Theo unless they wrote the story itself.

She just like me fr

y'all, i thought this dumbass cut her good hand (right) 'cause she got carried away in the moment

but it turns out that Lenore was actually left-handed all this time and i never noticed

she uses her left hand to fight, to cut her hair and to hold a gun

please tell me i'm not the only person who just noticed this🙏🏻🙏🏻

last chance to evacuate

as you may know, israel has begun its ground operation in rafah. they dropped leaflets last night ordering people to evacuate, and bombing in east rafah has already begun.

The border is about to become unreachable.

Rafah is trapped.

We have literal hours until no-one, all the GoFundMe's you've scrolled past, all the people desperately begging on TikTok, will be able to escape.

Give now. Give whatever you can.

I am fundraising for the Odeh family, which is only 3k away from meeting its goal.

you will not get another chance.

GIVE HERE

Will and Ada constantly fighting for Montresors attention while he's been trying not to die will never not be funny to me. (Something like this happened to me once, I always laugh at it.)

Praying for the artists to make more Nevermore themed wallpapers. What do yall need from me to make it happen? 🛐

Hi.

I know judging by this fanbase, you all probably like three things: Lesbianism, supernatural stuff, and a good ass story. So I wanted to share this Wattpad story that has surprised me for it's overall quality that includes all of these themes and more. If you read it: tell me you like, don't tell me if you don't (/hj). A heads up here for those who need it; this book has explicit content, if you're not into that or if you're too young for that, steer clear of the story or at least the parts which contain them (because LAWD they are something)

Theory Repost

Alright theory time theory time

So, this particular theory is one I've had about a certain creature and I have seen the same theory around a few times as well but the new free chapter (#100) puts a litte confidence behind it. This all starts with the Raven's curiosity about the creature stalking Lenore and while Lenore is expectedly surprised she suspects it could be the Vandernacht curse that ended with her. That answer, to both me and the Raven, was a bit unsatisfactory because it seems unlikely to be the case until I thought about another theory that I've had but with no good foundation.

I know most of you remember the first ceature we come across (not the flying sperm cells); The deer like creature that chases Lenore and Annabelle until they run into the Academy. I'll just say it, I think it's Theo. And look, you think it's random, I think it's random but here are my reasons. Looking back at the creature, that looks like a muntant of a deer. Glimpses of memories pertaining Theo weren't uncommon for Lenore but the one that stands out for this situation is in chapter 38.

"I've always liked Venison."

The memory is Theo coming home with other hunters carrying deer game. It's an animal I feel is associated with Theo. I'd also put money on the bet that that's the same creature stalking Lenore instead of it being a random being looking for a light snack. So just think, the creature that follows her is not a manifestation of a curse that even haunts her in death, as she believes (Although, the curse does seem that persistent) but is another victim of the curse and Theo being that creature is a big possibility.

Now to really get a feel of this theory, it makes me think "what the hell would have happened to him to become that?" The deans surprisingly mentioned Lenore's brother but unfortunately not how he was impacted by Nevermore Academy; if he won a second life, if he went to the Land of the Dead though he'd shown much promise or even escaped and probably doomed to a worse fate. It isn't mentioned at all. But as much as I'd like to believe he won, I'd still have my doubts even without this theory.

It makes me question what the hell goes on in limbo between the land of the living and the dead. Does it change you over time or is this Theo's spectre? Had he escaped and succumed to the form?

Hold on: This is me hours later, with a revelation. In the new chapter, Lenore accuses the Raven of being affected by the deans. Is this being unable to shift to another form while in Nevermore Academy. What if it's the Deans putting some sort of barrier from rampages of magic or in this case, Spectres. This may have to do something with how being outside of the Academy may change a being over time, which we kmow happens from the Raven but is halted or reduced in the Academy. This gives me much more confidence about my theory.

[thereapersgambit]

I sense another theory coming along. But it will have to wait until this next free chapter drops for yall to really know what I'm yapping about.

[thereapersgambit]

Hold on, I completely understand what you're saying but the story implies that the Deans put in her head that Lenore murdered her purposefully. It would make sense that she didn't trust her fully after the Deans helped her manifest, which may explain why she separated herself from Lenore in the first place (before the maze exam begins), she may have needed some space to figure out what the hell that means for her. Still, it doesn't excuse the fact that she stays truly loyal to her promise and to Lenore herself even if its behind closed doors. The mystery is just...why? Does she just distrust the Deans more the Lenore or did she get a memory that disproves the Deans. It could also be both.

...I don't want Lenore to be Annabel's murderer now (only now, because if the story does introduce that plotline well enough idfc). Because it makes no fucking sense for why Annabel would be so loyal to her. That's the biggest flaw in everybody's theories, Annabel is not exactly somebody who would forgive somebody who'd kill her. Yes, she is deeply in love with Lenore, but it's clearly because Lenore somehow won Annabels' trust fully-

For God's sake, Annabel remembers backwards, it doesn't make sense for her to trust Lenore so deeply if Lenore actually betrayed her. It doesn't make sense for Annabel to feel completely safe around her.

"But she offered Lenore that she can kill her if she must!"

Yeah, dude. That was a trust thing. She did that, trusting Lenore would never do it. She did it to prove to Lenore that she trusts her too. Like, bruh. Talk about a bigger sign of devotion.

At most, Lenore killed her wife on accident. Not deliberately. Because at this point in the story (which is still pretty fucking early, we're nowhere near the wedding) Lenore doesn't really do violence much. She's violence-reluctant. And you're telling me she killed her biggest love on purpose? Ha. No.

I'll believe it when I'll see it. But until then? No way in hell.

OMGAWD STOP THIS IS GOING ON THE SHELF

Buns 🐰

For context, our readers started an Easter trend where they were drawing Annabel in a bunny costume and we were jealous and wanted to join in. Better late than never?

[thereapersgambit]

The potential contrast of Annabelle being shot in the heart and Lenore being shot in the head is SO intruiging to me.

[thereapersgambit]

The newest free chapter (no comment on FP rn...) got me thinking about how Montresor found himself in deep shit. He wanted an ally out of Annabelle so bad, yeah, he got it for sure.

You could also just tell on his face that he knew he was screwed by her too.
