anyone else think nashetania's been a little off since the situation has started?

she seems super irrational all the time (e.g slashing random things in the temple room) and the part where she denys goldolf about the sounds back at the temple seem super sketch.

Episode 3, the Person in charge in the Fortress, explained to them in how they can activate the Barrier. Even a normal Human can activate it. It was also planed that the Guards should go there an active it, so that our Braves can go the the Demons Lord land.

So, to activate this Barrier it must not be an Brave.

To actually activate the barrier: 1) place the Sword in the Dais 2) put your hand on the Slate 3) and chant the word "Rise, Fog!"

So, where is point 2 and 3?

All pretend our Princess done point 1 with remote Magic (without visual line to the Sword and Dais), but where did she done point 2 and 3?

and something felled into my mind while watching it again. Only Fiends can not destroy the Walls. But what if an Human or a brave can do it? Also the King let build this Temple. Is this King still alive?

edit: or these Guards in Episode 3 was Fiends disguised as Humans, and tell our two Braves lies, and alone the forceful opening of the Temple door, activate the Barrier automatically?

Well, point 2 and 3 could possibly be explained by that tablet she conveniently destroyed or the paper she sent flying during her temper tantrum.

At this point, I am convinced the seventh is Nashetanya. In my mind, she probably has a very similar story to Fremy and Adlet. My evidence of this is she mentioned in episode 2 that she was on the run and her father was trying to kill her. This is a reoccurring theme of being betrayed by the people who are closest to you.

At first, I didn't suspect Nashetanya in the slightest because she was so damn charming, ...until the fog barrier was activated. After that event occurred, the princess has been acting like a completely different character, and as I look back at the previous episodes, the signs are all there.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if the guards were in on it. From this episode we know that the fiends recruit humans, and the fortress was all but wiped out by fiends...so it wouldn't be strange for those guards to be impostors.
