It is called the Soulless Duchess as a reference to a wife that is just there for appearances sake. However I have been wondering, especially with this revelation about Claude’s dreams, if perhaps she really did lose her soul?
In the first place, how was she able to travel back in time? Yes these kind of stories this is often glossed over or hanwaved away with “the kami did it”… but in this story we actually have two important things that have happened to before her time travel that isn’t just her desire to redo this part of her life. See not only did she contract with high level holy beasts, she conducted a terrible Mana experiment on her body. Now think of it this way… What if she didn’t really travel back in time but rather sent back her consciousness? In other words, her soul is still stuck in that other timeline! This might be why Claude can see her alternate future in his dreams.
Question is, if this is the case, does it mean that she can regain her lost soul or that she is doomed to always live like this homuncolous construct?
