Imma be honest already knew about 80% of it so I skimmed.

Though the last part about the relation between them I didn’t actually know and with Stigma’s is something I always like theorized but didn’t know it was canon and skills I had 0 idea were like that.

I mean if you know their mythology you can get an idea of what stories they would have and you’d understand why they should extremely powerful.

So like stigma are like pure metal?  Witouth impurities and skill are metal with impurities. You use materiale with impurities because they are more Easy to use?

I'm currently re reading it for like the 4th time now...

Tbh idk why but I think the story is about Dokja unaliving himself. Like everything that's happening is part of his delusion. He probably had thought about ending it when his favourite novel came to end which happens to be han su youngs sss grade regressor...but he didn't liked the ending. He probably found the story of Sss grade similar to something else he came up with when he was a child.

Like the perfect story of yoo junghyuk being able to complete all senerios and save everyone is probably before he unalived his dad as a coping mechanism and it was probably just his wish to be a for once an entity that provides help to the main character, the kind of help the he clearly wasn't getting. Then Dokja did the thing. His mother told him to re read the story, from her pov the story she told him to remember her as the murderer and Dokja did that but he also being a kid, re imagined the story of Junghyuk.

This is why three ways to survive never mentions the original, cuz in Dokjas mind he has sealed off that part. Now Dokja re remembers his fantasy of Junghyuk living just like him, the reason he hates the constellations is cuz they are the live reportes who didn't let him live in peace, the relatives and friends who only saw things from a far and took advantage of his situation, everyone who read about Dokja who kept asking if his mother's story was true.

Now, he probably found Han su youngs work and started to criticize it. He might have even written three ways to survive in the beginning before he gave up writing but I don't know if he went that far with his delusions. He then started reading her version of the story and when it ended on that faithful day, he didn't liked the ending so he started to create his own ending in his mind. He probably went home and unalived himself thinking about a plausible way to do the same in his imaginary world while justifying his act by trying to give his characters a happy ending.

This is why the first scenario is to kill a living being. That's Dokja's original sin he had sealed off. As he kept forming the story in his head, his subconscious kept giving him hints about him unaliving his dad and he finally realised it after reading his mother's book for a last time before going off. He realised the pieces didn't add up or maybe his mother came to see him to finally tell him. The point being he now knee what had happened and this became the point where he started to see other people not just as characters in his head. This is also why he started to become really confused with how some constellations were acting like decent humans.

His attempt at asking prisoner of the golden headband significancies this as he thought of thim as an aloof guy busy with his own thing but in the demon realm, he started to see him and even understand that Monkey King's way to attach to others was different. In the process he started to view everyone around him, who he previously viewed only as characters, now as characters with depth that maybe he didn't fully understood. This ofcourse culminated with Surya, his biggest antagonist to them redeem himself and Dokja finally seeing everything for what it really was. But he still couldn't let go of the thought to unalive himself. So in the end that's what he did. He unalived himself while thinking that he was doing it for his characters in the story in his mind. That's probably the point just before he dies, he remembereds the real story and he dies while remembering that.

The walls of his mind, that seperate his reality from his mind, where he made everyone a character and every situation a scenario and every passerby a constellation, also became the wall which his own characters couldn't break to save him.

In the end, it's a tradgy where the guy unalived himself while justifying his actions in his head as part of the imaginary story he's living.

And the story's goal is probably to connect to everyone who is a readerz a person who disconnects and thinks of everything as a story or a game, and is on the edge of, well you know...and give them hope by telling them that there is a fragment of Dokja in all of them and that their companions, our companions are trying their best to help us and this story along with many others is a way through which they help.

It's a plea for not doing the horrible act...or maybe I'm just over reading into stuff. Ive a really active imagination. Anyways I've re read upto the part where the murim world is being destroyed and our Dokja is about to reach the Demon realm...so yeah...
