@tinal.5585

@@lonawest6585 Yeah, this. When Lucien revealed Molly was 'just a fragment,' I got the sense that Tal mentioned "Molly wouldn't want to come back" because he knew his soul fragment would be infused with Lucien's, so he wouldn't come back if the M9 tried to resurrect him. Otoh Molly could have become a completely separate soul chilling in the Moonweaver's realm and Lucien doesn't know he's still missing a piece of his soul. I think it's going to come down to one of the following scenarios: 1) M9 kill Lucien and Moonweaver allows Molly to reenter his body briefly to say goodbye 2) Very similar but Jester resurrects Molly just in time to stop the ritual and that ends up killing him, so he says goodbye in his last moments 3) Your idea which is that Jester resurrects Molly in the M9 v. TT battle, turning Lucien into the version he was before reading the book, i.e. Molly shard back in, he finally accepts both parts, and stops the Aeor ritual, removing the eyes from everyone. Hence Jester's read of the Death tarot as "rebirth." Personally I like the last outcome the most but I think the first outcome is the most likely. It's very direct, gives Taliesin a few minutes to be Molly again, saves Matt time otherwise spent tagging along as a party member NPC, and cuts off criticism of "why'd you bring Molly back/I don't like Lucien 2.0, I want Molly" and so on. But I still have some bit of hope about the rebirth option.

Second card, she has this mysterious grin where she seems to know more than what she leds too, and then final card, she's downright spooky, giving the impression to be reading right into Lucien's mind. Laura Bailey is such a good actress man.

Every fucking time I watch this I find out another detail that makes it even more amazing!! I just got the physical tarot set, I was looking through the cards and there are 2 very distinct styles of the cards: those drawn by Molly and those drawn by Jester. History and the Dream was drawn by Molly, as was The Tyrant and The Judge. Death and Dawn was drawn by _Jester,_ ya know, the one who went on to _kill_ lucien?! And! And, the Death side depicts Molly's coat on the stick marking his grave with a crow perched on it!! So as Jester sits there doing this tarot reading that she learned from Molly with Lucien who's not long resurrected back in the same body, the man draws the card depicting the fall of Aeor and the creation of the Cognosa abomination with a roll of _9_ drawn by Molly, then the _red tyrant_ drawn by Molly with a roll of 1 (which also means that the silver dragon _Judge_ is facing Jester, btw!), then they draw Death with a roll of 18 (2x9!) and 1, which Jester created _by her own hand_ reveals this by saying to Lucien "Facing you, is death" when she goes on to kill him!! What the actual fuck?!?! I don't actually know if you could have _scripted_ it to be that unbelievably poetic!

The reading I would give to those cards is that his Past card represents his destruction, his transformation into Molly, how his ambition and recklessness lead to his own undoing. His present card represents his current internal conflict, two sides represented by the two dragons fighting for their futures, Lucian being depicted as a red dragon is very apt. The future card, of course, represents how he is facing some kind of transformative change, whether that means turning back into Molly, or joining the Somnovum is unsure.

Rewatching this scene on a whim, and one of the things I love most about it is the tonal shift. At the start, they're all laughing about it, because it's all a bit of a joke. But then as the scene progresses, that falls away and the silence from the rest of the group has weight to it. It's all complete chance that these are the cards that Lucien pulled, because the dice rolls are random, but the group starts to feel its significance, and in doing that, they themselves make it significant.

I want to believe so much that "death" and "rebirth" could mean the M9 bringing Molly back, but my head tells me that at best it'll be just a hard factory reset, with Lucien being wiped again and at worst, it means he's gonna die for good. I do think Matt would be open to the idea of the M9 working to jog Molly's memories back, but it would be very difficult and I suppose would require either a long time of building up trust with the M9 again (which seems impossible) or managing to capture him and try stuff forcefully to see if Molly's in there (which seems even more ludicrous at the moment).

@@imkabochan This is a late response but with what we’re seeing now, I think your ideas are still in play! I agree that getting Molly back permanently would be a very difficult, if not impossible, thing to do. I think at this point the cast has mostly lost hope they can awaken the Molly part of Lucien, but we still don’t have divine confirmation where Molly is. We only know what Lucien believes and I think Matt has been keeping the Molly question vague on purpose. I think there are 2 possible outcomes and they’re similar to what you theorized: first is that M9 kill Lucien and Molly “surfaces” just long enough to say a proper goodbye. Or Lucien tries to kill the M9 but Molly surfaces long enough to stop him. Second idea is similar to a hard reset like you mentioned, like M9 kill Lucien/Somnovem, resurrect Lucien trying to get Molly back, but end up with Mollucien (before the book, zero recognition of the M9 and no eyes) or another Empty. That would mean Molly ceased to exist when he died, but a reset version would get another chance to live. I am certain Molly isn’t coming back to replace Cad though because Tal said Molly wouldn’t want to (he prob would to save his friends or say goodbye but no longer than that) and I really don’t think Tal would send away the group’s main cleric in the final stretch of the campaign. I also don’t think he’d want to play 2 characters at once for longer than 5-10 mins. That would be overwhelming for anyone. I do think there’s a possibility for Tal to follow through on Cad’s wish to “change a heart, save a soul” and resurrect Lucien. But that’s a big If and I won’t be surprised if Matt just asks Tal if Molly wants to say goodbye when the M9 defeat Lucien. It’s more direct, honors Molly, and keeps Matt or Tal from having to pilot him. At this point I like the Empty reset the most because it would be Matt playing MT, Molly’s death isn’t reversed so fans don’t feel cheated, and I think the cast would have fun interacting with MT and teaching them things. Whatever happens, I’m excited to see how things play out!

Not necessarily. Scrying, especially at this intensity that he regularly uses on them, requires high levels of familiarity with the target. Molly, or at least his memories, are 100% still in there. For anyone who's seen Fullmetal Alchemist, i think you know the general idea of where im going with this theory. Even if Lucien can be wiped from Molly, Molly probably will pop right back up.

Coming back to this after the end of campaign 2 it is wild how accurate this tarot reading was (spoilers for C2 ending obviously) The past card was arguably the least applicable, but even then the image of the Calamity on the card evokes Cognoza and the way they were trying to escape the Calamity when they did what they did. Then you have the Tyrant, two dragons fighting in a figure 8, the one facing you is red. The red dragon representing Lucien and the Tomb Takers, the other dragon representing the Mighty Nein, two equal foes locked in combat. Then that future card, damn! Facing you is death, but that death can also be rebirth! And it was. Lucien died but then was reborn as Kingsley. Gosh it's so cool how it all worked out, especially that last card

I know this is 6 months old but I imagine this shouldn’t be too difficult, the d20 roll determines which card (make 20 cards in a deck and have a person reroll if they roll the same number again) some cards have two sides, use a d6, odds correspond to one reading and evens to the other. And the fun part is then just designing the cards yourself, you can use already existing tarot cards or some of the ones they’ve mentioned in the show or design your own deck completely for your own world.
