Bro...
Spiral isn't some villain standing with a sword in your face.
No.
He's the one who slides into your decisions without you knowing.
The moment you think —
"This is the right choice…"
but later regret it?
That's where Spiral was hiding all along.
---
Spiral doesn't just control time…
His real trick?
> He manipulates your destiny through time.
He doesn't force you.
He doesn't scream.
He just gives you little choices…
...and waits.
Watches how you fall.
> "You saved the girl… but lost your friend."
"You changed the past… now your future is broken."
---
And then you say,
> "Maybe it's my fault."
Bro…
That's exactly what Spiral wants.
He wants you to fear your own decisions.
To believe you can't change anything.
To think you're just a pawn in a time loop.

How does he control Echo?
Simple:
> "You were never real."
"You're just a cleaner version of Aren — the one that didn't fail."
And Echo?
He spends every second proving he's better…
But in reality?
> He's just a puppet.
---
Spiral's one dark rule:
> "Change the timeline… and you break your soul."
Anyone who messes with time too much?
Their soul starts to crack.
Even Aren —
sometimes you see it in his flashes,
his unstable emotions?
That's Spiral slowly testing his limits.
Because Spiral isn't human.
> He's a curse with no heart —
woven into every timeline.
---
And the biggest twist?
> Spiral is afraid.
Afraid of people who still feel.
Afraid of those with hope and emotion in their chest.
That's why he wants the Timekeepers destroyed.
Because they don't just know time —
> They feel it.
---
And bro…
He knows one thing:
> If Aren ever truly bonds with someone…
if he ever loves with everything he has —
> Spiral's entire logic will collapse.
Because Spiral = logic.
Aren = emotion.
And where emotion wins?
> Spiral is already defeated.
---
Final Line:
> "If time keeps repeating itself…
then what's the point of it all?
