Taking This Into Account, Now Imagine If At Some Point Eda And Luz Meet And Belos Sees Them Together,

Taking this into account, now imagine if at some point Eda and Luz meet and Belos sees them together, he would already have two reasons to attack Eda because he would not only believe that Evelyn is still alive but he would feel jealous of the mentor-apprentice/parent-daughter relationship that Eda has with Luz besides Belos would also attack her because he would think that she kidnapped and brainwashed Luz as he thinks that Evelyn did with Caleb. Also let's not forget that Belos is obsessed with Luz and that before he left for the Boiling Islands he told everyone this, especially Luz because she is human and because he knows her more than the others who are with her:

Oh no. I just realized something.

An unstable Belos, who keeps seeing his dead brother everywhere, is currently possessing Raine. And who is most likely to deal with Raine?

Eda.

Eda...who currently has short hair. And whose silhouette currently strongly resembles-

OH FUCK.

LEAVE

THEM

ALONE

Sukuna could use Yorozu and turn her into his own Harley Quinn if he wanted to.

Now I need to see Sukuna and Yorozu having the dynamic that Joker and Harley Quinn have.

I've been thinking about what would have happened if Luz had been found first by Belos before Eda and I couldn't help but remember Sonia and Griffith from Berserk.

Luz and Sonia were born with a condition that made them different from other normal people which makes them both think and see things differently from others (Luz has ADHD since birth and Sonia is a birth medium) to the point that they felt they didn't fit in anywhere and that neither did their parents nor did anyone understand them or take what they said seriously:

Luz felt her mother Camila does not understand her because of her strangeness and her way of seeing things due to her ADHD and that the only person who supported her tastes in fantasy, her father Manny who gave her the Good Witch Azura books as a way to support her tastes, is no longer there. It is implied that her classmates bullied her for her love for fantasy and for her ADHD and it is even implied that Luz confessed to someone but that person rejected her for being weird and corny.

Sonia lost her parents due to the Kushan invasion but that gives to understand with some dialogues that she has with Schierke and Irvine, Sonia felt lonely to the point that it can be interpreted that she thought that her parents didn't understand her and saw her as a freak and from the way in which we were introduced to Sonia where other women dismiss her visions as the product of madness from seeing their parents burned to death, it is implied that because of her powers as a medium the other people in her home village believed that she was insane.

This is even seen by the fact that they both feel more comfortable being and talking with monsters or strange beings (Luz with Eda, King and hexsquad and Sonia with Griffith, Irvine, Schierke and the new Band of the Hawk in general) than with normal people:

Sonia is always agressive towards Mule and Charlotte and the human soldiers as if she was hurt in the past by other normal humans so she always has distrust towards other humans and would rather hurt them than let them hurt her first.

Luz was terrified that Vee would talk to other humans and even gave her advice on how to run away from them to avoid being humiliated, as if Luz herself had bad experiences with other humans and would rather run away from other humans than be hurt by them.

Luz and Sonia had to take the conditions with which they were born as something that makes them special as if they were the chosen one as a defense mechanism to face their loneliness and their fear of being seen as freaks and being rejected because of that, and they can even become stubborn and hurtful with others.

Luz and Sonia know what it's like to be alone that they even become friends with two witches (Willow and Schierke) who share similar problems to them:

Willow is a witch who is not good with abominations which causes other classmates to bully her just as it happened to Luz in the Human Realm.

Schierke is a witch that have magic powers what cause her to have conflicts with humans because of it just as it happened to Sonia with the other inhabitants of her home village.

Luz and Sonia were naive and had a great feeling of loneliness to the point that they cling to the first people who treat them well or with respect (Eda and Griffith) because they don't downplay or demonize them as girls with delusions of grandeur or as insane girls but they accept them for who they are, take them and their feelings seriously, and give them a place of belonging.

Luz and Sonia have a strong desire to be understood by others that leads them to believe that they understand those that they accepted them due to the fact that they are special and/or weird like them.

However, the key difference is that Eda doesn't respect Luz at the beginning but when Luz is in danger she doesn't hesitate to go to help her but the most important thing is that Eda teaches her that she cannot wait for others to give her value through a special destiny of chosen one but that she has to give her value to herself.

Eda: "Look, kid, everyone wants to believe they're "chosen". But if we all waited around for a prophecy to make us special, we'd die waiting. And that's why you need to choose yourself".

Furthermore, when Luz hurts others to fulfill her fantasies of being the chosen one, as happened with Willow and Amity, both of them call out Luz for hurting them, to which Luz listens and recognizes that she was wrong to project her fantasies on Amity and Willow and begin to understand them better and treat them and their feelings with respect.

But Sonia doesn't have an Eda nor does she have a Willow or an Amity, she instead has Griffith who instead of giving her the firm but caring reality check that Eda does with Luz or call her out and make her see that her projection as the chosen one is hurting others and that she has to learn to understand them and treat them with respect like Willow and Amity told Luz, Griffith really plays into and encourages her main character syndrome and makes her believe that she totally does have a destiny, this is fate, Hawk of the Light himself brought her to him at this time, so on and so forth.

And I'm pretty sure Belos would do to Luz what Griffith did to Sonia if he had the chance. I'm sure he'd love that opportunity, and he could easily play into her chosen one ideas and main character syndrome: Luz would be an honored guest of the Emperor, Belos would give her a nice suite of rooms in the castle, fed regular meals - no finicky experimenting with what cuisine makes her sick, here, the Emperor is well aware of the dietary needs of humans and his larders are stocked with all manner of things she can consume, she has access to his libraries, to all of the information she could ever want and the best tutors on magic, Belos would let Luz learn to use glyphs, he would manipulate her by telling her about the Savage Ages and how dangerous wild magic is and how he brought order to the witchkind. He'd want to form a very close and personal relationship with Luz and for her to trust him completely and for that he would allow her to do things that he would not allow anyone else like have her attending him in his workshop, spending time with him in his personal office, taking dinner with him in his chambers, listening to his stories, he would tell her that he is a human like her.

Luz and Sonia are unshakably happy, caring and naive girls who feel alone because they don't fit in anywhere and nobody wants to understand them. Luz found people who teach her that she cannot run away from reality to feel that they take her seriously because she would be more isolated but those same people understand her and love her for whom she is and they show it to her but Sonia doesn't have the same luck and she is with a monster that despite showing that he enjoys her company is also using her. It's quite scary to think that if Belos had found Luz first than Eda, Luz's situation would be the same as Sonia's and even Luz could behave in the same aggressive way as Sonia.

Lately I haven't stopped thinking that the conflict between Ruby and Neo works as some kind of foreshadowing or sample of what could happen with Salem.

Salem and Neo grew up in a controlling and dysfunctional family to the point where they wanted freedom above all else and met someone (Ozma and Roman) who gave them the freedom they craved.

Salem, like Neo, is angry about the death of a loved one (Neo for Roman's death and Salem for Ozma's death) and they blame others for their respective deaths (Neo blames Ruby in the same way that Salem blamed to the gods) and just as Neo vents her anger and pain by lashing out at everyone in Ever After without caring for her own physical or emotional well-being, Salem ended up lashing out at everyone (causing chaos and destruction throughout Remnant) not caring if it ends up destroyed her (she tried to commit suicide without success and waits for the gods to destroy everything in the hope that she can die). They also both don't care if they hurt others by being so caught up in their own pain that they consider the pain of others irrelevant.

Ever After and the whole situation with Ruby and Neo is like the conflict that the protagonists have with Salem but on a smaller scale, so this scenario could work as a kind of preparation for the protagonists when they finally face Salem because she cannot be destroyed but it can be stopped through empathy and communication, both on the part of the protagonists and on the part of Salem herself.
