Shadows House (Official Colored) - Ch. 198 - Monologue

So Joseph is the real Villain behind everything in this story...
And Christopher the "Hero" that took on the will of the head of the Mirrors Family to put an end to the Shadows reign and restore their honor.
Meanwhile, the unexpected factor of the surviving daughter of Catherine, stuck between Mirrors and Shadow, is the true Joker causing unexpected ripples on the story, trying to be used by both sides...

Still no dull moments!

Seems like the bombshell train is not stopping just yet.

It feels kinda weird when you put the pieces together and realize things like Anthony actually being Joseph's biological grandson (and by extension, being younger than Kate).

 

[saveme]

So Joseph might be behind this, either he got merged with a shadow or somehow turned into one like Kate

 

[KZO]

The question is why? Is Joseph actually the one in charge and grandfather just a puppet or are they in it together?

 

[Udooky]

In chapter 194, Joseph (Shadow) acted like he was already quite well-acquainted with Kate and upon seeing her, it's worth noting that he namedropped not his supposed dear friend Alfred, but Kate's mother, Catherine.

Some people on an /a/ thread have brought up the possibility that

Spoiler

He may in fact be Kate's actual father, and that she was a product of infidelity or rape. The morph incident may have been Joseph's attempt to do a complete usurping of the Mirrors family (remember, he was the one doing research on fey creatures), only for shit to go out of whack.
This also means that both current "heirs" to the Mirrors family are actually sired from Joseph's bloodline. Kate being his direct daughter, and Anthony being his grandson. Perfectly falls in line with his presumed goal of taking over the family.

I mean we're already going full family soap opera here, so I wouldn't be surprised if this happened to be the case.

Also, behold something from that thread that had me in stitches.

This could have been an entire story of its own! Spinoff/side story when?

 

[TestAddress]

If Alfred Mirrors is that old at the birth of Anthony... then I guess he to died of coal sickness.

Anthony is most likely the only survivor of the Mirrors.

 

[fennec]

Joseph is totally that one shadow who has Kate's briefcase. I wonder if he recognizes Anthony/Christopher at all, too, since he's his grandson and could have some of his or his daughter's features.

I wonder if Joseph is truly the villain though. Something about his behavior with Kate feels off, so... Did he properly unify with a morph? Or is the shadow Joseph a morph that never fully unified with him?

This also makes me wonder: is the great grandfather even real? Or is he a puppet used by Joseph?

can't believe you missed opportunity to do Joseph Stalin

 

[nhansieu1]

now how tf did Christopher know about Kate's situation?

 

[SomeMoron]

Wait, then who in god's name is Grandfather?

 

[MrSergio]

things are getting spicy, man...

 

[Admmi]

now how tf did Christopher know about Kate's situation?

Yep that's still confusing, sure he probably knew that he had a sister but to figure out it was Kate it would be quite a stretch.

Never trust a dude with a monocle is what I'm taking from this

Never trust a dude with a monocle is what I'm taking from this

It's always the butler!

 

[hikarimew]

Yknow, when Joseph said "Take my daughter", I don't think he meant it like that

 

[Romanito11]

oh.....oh shit.............

 

[Emanon0]

Okay I can't take the morph seriously, they look so cute!!!!
