Okay makes sense. But how did Bodach feel about that? Just being abandoned and betrayed and all. Witch makes me question, so year later, was it Frisk that fell again? And if it was frisk that fell again (well cuz that’s a possibility :v) did Bodach recognized them? Or was it Aliza that fell? Or someone else intently? Witch also brings the question on how the barrier was broken.(Sorry I’m asking so many questions, your AUs and writing is so amazing and so incredibly interesting,I just get curios
Well, Bodach is upset about that of course. But more so about the fact that Frisk never returned (with or without help). He still loves Frisk a lot though. And years later, on the surface, he does recognize them...
Many years after Frisk left though, it was Aliza that fell (and the story focuses on). Quite a few children had fallen before her, but they all got killed. Aliza was just lucky that she can reset and that she ended up falling in good graces with Bodach.
And honestly, between Bodach and Undyne they already had all the souls needed to get out by that point. It’s just that most monsters can’t really count (mostly because they see no need for it) and no one exactly knew how many souls Undyne had. And Bodach was hiding he was collecting them too. Another problem is that in the Underground there was no monster left sane or healthy enough to absorb and control the power of the 7 souls. It’s only because Aliza can figure out how many souls are actually down there and Flowey absorbing them in the true pacifist route that ends up in monsterkind finally being freed.
