Let him be free!

Also I know it should be funny sister having a walkie but copia was so confused by it and I feel like it's another way she's still controlling him from the grave :(

What in the Hell?😂

do you think it mid-to-late 1990s and 2000s call center worker Tobias J. Forge ever thought his actions would directly lead to a picture like this

At this point, I think we can just go with our own interpretations of the story because of how loose it is. In the end, it's the music that truly matters. I would love a more coherent story, of course, but I'm not going to lose sleep over this anymore. I'm satisfied with just enjoying the music and concerts now. Although, it is still sad that I will never see Terzo having any influence. At least we got quite a few Meliora songs on the tour set list. Maybe Papa V Perpetua looked up to Terzo and wants to subtly carry on his legacy?

I think a retcon with four brothers is a bad plot decision, and here's why.

1. In the Meliora era, Nihil was introduced as the father of the other Papas, and that's important for many reasons. Tobias himself repeatedly emphasized that Terzo and Secondo had a common father but different mothers, and presented this as an essential characteristic. Nihil he referred to as "the bigger fish in the sea." Terzo once even promised that sooner or later we would see his father - and so it turned out. 

2. The subject of Meliora is a world without God. Tobias described it as a pre-apocalyptic world. It ends with the end of civilization when God returns and punishes humanity for its complacency. The last song of the era, "Bible," tells how the people of Babylon forgot about God and he unleashed the world in his wrath. The next album, Prequelle, is a logical extension of this - it's about the return of God, who brings punishment (plague) upon mankind. Considering this, metaphorically Nihil is the very God-father who comes to "close the party".

3. By coming on stage, Nihil is saying that a new Middle Ages is coming. His return symbolizes the rolling back of political systems to more archaic ideas and ways of government (I guess I don't need to tell what from real life that looks like). Modernization is replaced by conservatism. Democracy is replaced by more rigid and authoritarian forms of rule. The older generation here symbolizes conservative ideas, while the younger generation symbolizes aspirations for the future.

4. Terzo's image is largely based on the image of Lucifer, there are many references to that. Lucifer was thrown out of heaven by God, his father. It makes sense that Terzo is also cast down by his father, Nihil.

The Meliora - Prequel system worked fine until they needed to change key elements for some reason. I hope TF scraps this idea, because obviously it offers a bad alternative to a good story.

I know we're all hurting about the prices but here's what I found. I don't think Tobias would just up the cost without a very good reason and it turns out that reason is the shitty application fee. And that little note at the end about there being no refund if an application is rejected? He's just as much a victim of capitalism as the rest of us. I understand the insane VIP price point with guaranteed front and center barricade now.

I am so glad I got upper level seats.

Did bro even wear this fit? Guys I need to know

Tumblr somehow became a cozy corner compared to everywhere else. It's surprising, but pleasantly so.

Everyone, you’re probably familiar with Jonny Bush, a brilliant artist who is licensed by Ghost but he is just stupendous. This is the first in his latest series—a medieval Emeritus!!! He has a whole lore that goes with it, just click here to read on his Instagram Jonny Bush

Just…never mind how gorgeous this is, he even wrote lore to go along with it! He’s amazing. I hope he does a con here in the States someday.
