### Summary
Following the partial failure to contain Dowager Empress Medea’s plot at the temple, the "nightmare disease," identified as Ephialtes, has been stolen from the compromised holy site. Reader speculation points squarely at Leslie's sister, Ellie, as the culprit, acting on Medea’s orders. The antagonists' plans appear to be escalating, with the old Speràdo manor now repurposed as a hideout for rebel forces. This has amplified immense reader frustration, not with the villains, but with the protagonists' perceived incompetence and inaction. The Emperor is the primary target of this criticism; his continued delay in officially naming the crown prince is seen as a weak and foolish move that directly aids Medea's conspiracy, with many predicting he will be killed before securing the line of succession. There is a growing, vocal demand for the heroes to abandon investigation and take direct action, such as arresting or assassinating Medea. The failure to neutralize a known threat is seen as a critical and illogical strategic error, causing some readers to lose faith in the heroes entirely.
