By an amazing coincidence, Lime's last line works on a meta level as well! I need to take a quick, week-long break, so DotX as a whole will be back in a bit!
Unfortunately, I have some things I need to get done that I keep putting off to make pages of DotX! The deadline for these real-world things is getting closer and closer, so I really need to be able to give them my full attention. Just for a little bit! Again, DotX will be back in a week, meaning the next page going up will be page 446 on Friday, October 13th!
Sorry about the wait, everyone! I wish I could say that at the end of this I'll have something exciting and new to show everyone, but woops! Turns out there's a real world beyond Hetrea where I have real responsibilities. I know, I wasn't aware of it either!
In the meanwhile, I'll still be active on the official Hetrea Discord server and SkyJam, (Since the former connects directly to my phone and the latter is filmed ahead of time!)
See you all on the 13th, and thanks for understanding! :D

On the last page you said maybe the demon needs a host. That can't work because plan A for the demon was killing Pudding and impersonating her. we can tell from that to know that the demon is perfectly capable of staying in Hetrea without a host for as long as it needs to do whatever it is that it is trying to do.
Ahh That’s right
Forgot about that.
...so if it wants to impersonate her, it’ll definitely want to get rid of witnesses right?
Aka everyone at this party
@Phate
But impersonating Pudding would mean pretending to be her to people who know who she is. The demon's plan was escape the ball as soon as possible talking to as few people as possible, which means that the demon wants to do something other than tricking Pudding's friends into thinking it is her. And for some reason, whatever this thing the demon needs a non demon body for requires the demon to have Pudding's body specifically.
But if that were the case it would seem pretty forced. I'm actually of the opinion that the demon never really had a master plan and is just trying to do things one step at a time.
@Void
That’s probably the case honestly. It got stuck in pudding/maybe it wanted to lay low so it wouldn’t get sealed up again. Now it’s back out and just trying to escape.
First off, lets just call the demon "Medusa", because of the green skin and the long "hair". Secondly, Medusa could've wanted to kill Pudding originally because they thought it would've been easier to posses her then. But they got away, but not before Medusa could get into Puddings mind. And when Pudding falls asleep, it's like possessing her when she's dead, but like Audrey said, she's waking up as a defense mechanism, but when she eventually got too tired to wake up, which is when Medusa took control! And yes, I just did a giant theory (giant for the comments section) on why Medusa wanted to kill Pudding originally. The end, are ya happy?
