crackpot fe16 theory: byleth’s in a complete time loop (a la majora’s mask)
wakes up with no memory in edelgard’s path, notices that things don’t line all the way up and there’s a bunch of questions (those who slither, spears of light, rhea, etc.) -
still gets horribly close with her buds/waifu in the BE - starts the time loop again in a different house and is subsequently forced to watch shit fall apart and murder her friendos in different houses every single time while being aware.
