@Palm Heart IIRC the origin of loop theory is this post from Meraki Sunset, all the way back in April 2024. It's probably a bit outdated since we've learned far more about the Nymphs since then, but it's still a great explanation of the theory for the time.

Also I hadn't thought much about 100x prototyped enemies and king, that'd certainly make a chaotic session! Plus, them becoming horrorterrors rather than the nymphs could be a good explanation, given that the nymphs don't seem to grow directly into horrorterrors like the original theory implied. (Although, the imps don't bleed and the carapacians bleed red, while the horrorterrors bleed purple, so unless one of the prototypings somehow modifies their blood color that's probably a point against it)
