With the end nearing, im sure we're all thinking of the same outcome. And yeah, its going to break a few hearts.

I can't begin to express how sad I feel for parrot after the release of the new video. Does anyone else think he has it the worst all the time? Its because he dreams so big it's deemed unrealistic— its so painful to watch him crumble. We know he truly wants the best, and we know he's dying inside because he can't do anything to save his people, or change the views of old players.

I think it is about time he lets himself be a little more selfish. Now I know it sounds bad but listen, no amount of smarts can help him beat cindercrest if he's unwilling to change his hero complex. The selfishness is always there, he's just pushing it down his throat. We've seen him act a little out of character these past few episodes, and while alot of people are surprised at the change, I feel like it was only because he did so that he was able to stand against cindercrest. Without this action, they would've lost long ago, presumably, all players under his protection would've already died.

And no, dont start comparing him to lettucek, because what he did was far beyond parrot's morals which parrot will never break. Being selfish doesnt mean you're as bad as a dictator. He's not blinded by power, and he's not manipulating anyone. So lets not jump to the worst conclusion just because we see him act a little more humane.

As a parrot glazer, i know that his kind-heartedness is the sole reason his smartness is not used to his fullest. We need to stop treating him as a pushover, because we know he's starting to respect himself more.

If we keep viewing him as the parrot that wouldn't harm an ant, then we will never get to see the server become a better place. Accept the truth— he needs this selfishness.

P.s : My rant today is not very satisfactory, I constantly feel like im missing a point. But it's fine, what do you guys think?

After seeing the amount of hate thrown towards lomedy in the recent video, I thought I should probably come out and express a few of my opinions.

Firstly, let's try and view everything in season 3 so far on lomedy's perspective. Imagine you're a humble farmer with no real power, you've never stepped foot into such huge responsibilities because you never need, want, or had. So seeing the new king of unstable starve players whilst proclaiming a better future for everyone, it is undeniable that many old players will not be very satisfied with the current predicament.

Given the fact he is after all— a farmer, a nobody. Just a humble player in a huge server who happens to be friends with the strongest player. You must know that in the eyes of many many people, allowing new players to join when food and resources is already limited is just as big, or if not, an even bigger threat than whatever war the four main protagonist is facing.

___________________________

Albeit cindercrest does serve dangerous motives, it is not at all wrong to say that they truly are helping many old players who are facing great difficulties dealing with bandits and resources. So as normal as any player can be, compared to fighting wars for peace and quiet, survival is much more necessary and is obviously prioritised when they only have that much in this server.

We are crucially forgetting that one the major issues of the server IS survival. If your king is yet to stabilise his authority, soldiers, and resources, it is hardly worth staying around for. We aren't protagonists, its not about power, or wealth. It is about survival of the fittest.

Of course that isnt to say parrot is in any way, in the wrong or should be held accountable for everything. It isnt as simple as saving everyone, growing crops, and giving the entire server what they need in the matter of weeks or months, if there are many fractions constantly trying to threaten your empire and your very own self. He has a big responsibility, and a huge weight that only he alone can carry. And this is exactly what separates the average players, and the players with big ambitions.

So who is the prime example of this very difference? Lomedy and flame.

_______________________________

You can clearly tell that flame is very against betraying parrot's trust. Especially after the previous war they fought together, and how parrot was the one who helped him realize his mistakes, allowing him to reconcile with lomedy in the first place.

But he doesnt live like lomedy, hes is a significant character in the story, someone with big goals just like parrot and the other main characters. He doesnt understand why lomedy is so fond of cindercrest and he can't bring himself to voice out his opinions because he values lomedy more than his own morals. He's risking everything for lomedy without attempting to help lomedy see the sides to other things. It is no wonder that lomedy is acting more aggressive towards him. Just as flame can't understand cindercrest, lomedy can't understand the empire.

I also want to point out the many parallels of "you need a little bit of selfishness to survive". There is nothing inherently wrong being selfish, it is only natural for a human to prioritise certain things over others. Lomedy might not realize this, but he himself is just as selfish as everyone else. And that is what I think most fans were paranoid over. Flame priorities himself and lomedy, whereas lomedy prioritises the people who are starving.

They must communicate, learn to understand themselves and each other in order to progress further into the story. I think this character development goes to both of them and it is absolutely necessary, which is why I dont believe the duo is doomed.👀

I also hope that this will help clear some conflicting thoughts on parrot and other characters. Because ultimately, everyone is selfish in their own ways, but it is what drives the character to do what they want to do and achieve their own goals. No one is perfect, and everyone and their morals are bound to change, for the better or worse.

P.s. : parrot just posted as Im finishing this post, im gonna go watch it now. Sorry if it felt rushed at the end cause im excited. Let me know what you guys think of this, and if I should do other discussions on other characters. If there are any mistakes I made making this post, please kindly let me know 🥹

U genuinely cant give me one reason why lomedy would even LIKE cindercrest, like WHAT ARE WE DOING LOMS????

and then theres flame who joined for lomedy, he's actually lost the PLOT — loosing his bestfriend once got his brain actually deforming.

Not to mention him calling wemmbu "overreacting" like he didnt spend a whole episode crashing out and killing the entire mist civilisation for his bestfriend too???😭✌️

(Did it have to take wemmbu putting lomedy on a hypothetical for flame to finally understand why wemmbu was acting this way?)

Also now that wemmbu joined anarchild, flame in cindercrest, and spoke captured in null, I truthfully believe there is no saving these protagonists, let alone parrot.

And for anyone who still thinks the invisible player is theo, please go rewatch the entirety of season 3 from the start

Season 3 is so centered around our deuteragonists Its no wonder everyone is crashing out each episode. There is no debate that after the last few episodes, our 4 protagonists will lose themselves when anything were to happen to their bestfriends.

I can only pray that it gets better, but that is probably not happening

Edit: I think I might have an idea as to why lomedy would like them, if we go back to where it all started.

When lomedy was first introduced, he told flame that he had another friend that was "somewhat like flame", good at pvp, bla bla bla.

Could it be that saps or Billy the bob was the friend lomedy was talking about? Or someone else we haven't even met thus far...
