I've noticed a running theme in the horror of Red Candle Studio's games: Guilt In Detention, iirc it's about the guilt the main character harbors for basically being a snitch, which led to the deaths of her classmates and teacher In Devotion, it's about a father whose guilt is of him failing as a father, which led to the death of his daughter Then we have Nine Sols in which we have Lady Ethereal racked with guilt from failing her people in her quest of helping them This probably doesn't mean anything, but it's still an interesting detail i've noticed of this studio lol

Not just Lady Ethereal, I think Yi also harbors guilt for leaving his sister behind, and being responsible for the use of the apemen in the project after getting close to Shuanshuan

And not only she failing their people, she hide the problems and turn her eyes away from the dangerous signs, risking everyone's life and make smooth surface while she is terrifying what will come eventually.

Poor lady 🥺 really wanna give her a hug and tell her everything is alright

Same, she was just traumatized ;-;

Lady Ethereal's trauma and madness is literally the stuff of nightmares, especially the horrific image of her colleagues killing themselves and Xiaohe in a state of psychosis and despair trying to strangle her and it's implied she lost her body to the infection, most likely caused by Xiaohe. Atleast Yi sort of helps make peace with her past guilt and allow her to reunite with everyone in the end.

That cortex center scene at the beginning? With the eventual deterioration of the scene and the jumpscare? That is the most Red Candle Game thing to do, a signature even.

4:38 the modeling of the machine is really similar to Taiwan’s traditional grave, this may be interpreted as indicating that the failure of the experiment is doomed😢

Nobody at fault here. They just want the best for the Solarians and Yi suggested the Soulscape so he asked help from Lady Ethereal until the find cure. Sadly the experiment was too successful that who experience it, either never want to wake up or stuck in the dream

I didn’t realize that, during the really heavy flickering jumpscare at the end of the First Visit section, it’s showing Yi facing towards a heavily distorted Lady Etherial. I don’t know if that actually implies anything, but that’s such a cool detail!

I dread the fanart of Lady Ethereal, i know what the internet probably did with her character

I love her personality, she's nice, has a pleasant and calm voice and cares about people in need. Her intelligence does amaze me a lot. And she has the perfect shape for hugs and cuddles and since she's fluffy, it is even more perfect.

She looks like an Undertale character, but that's probably just the similar looks. (Especially in the memory fragments (flashback crystals as I call them) ) But I hope there's peace out there for her. (Although I don't fully know this) That's it, that's the comment.

She deserves peace. If there was a dlc and we chose to be with Elthereal in the ending and be her husband, I would take that choice without any second thoughts.
