The fucking PROBLEM of literally everyone even vaguely related to eliatropes and/or dragons. Is that they are obsessed with Going Back. Going back to this glorious past they keep hearing about! Yugo wants his family back. Adamai wants this brother he keeps hearing about. Nora & Efrim want to find the Eliatrope Goddess. Qilby wants to keep travelling through the stars with his peple. Said Eliatrope Goddess wants to rebuild the country of the eliatropes. The manga is no longer canonical, but Balthazar (sorry bro I'm not looking up how to write your name) also yearned to Go Back to the time where Eliatropes did not share with anyone. Whenever someone speaks of the Eliatropes, it's always with this sense of eternity; here is how things used to be, here is how things should be, here is how they will always be. Yugo must be king because he's always been king. The current situation is just a disruption of their natural cycle- surely, they all CAN Go Back, and so they all yearn to Go Back.

But you can't!! You can't. The Eliatropes, as people, have been gone for centuries, if not millenia! Yugo wants to find his "true family," and the family he finds is fractured at best and fucking sucks at worst. Adamai wants the fabled brother he's been told he's bound to, and he finds a guy who is perfectly fine on his own who keeps disagreeing with him. Nora and Efrim finds the Goddess they're looking for, at the cost of unspeakable suffering she cannot and will not help them recover from, leading to them both being bitter angry bitches who exile themselves to the end of the galaxy where no one but each other can stay. Qilby is loathed and ostracised by his entire family because they don't fucking know him, to him they're his dearest siblings but to his siblings he's just some random bitch who tried to destroy the world. The Eliatrope Goddess is trying to build a whole-ass country in a world already full with many political intrigues that refuses to simply step back and let her do her thing. They can't go back! They're all obsessed with the idea of "once I find my family, once we bring back our people, once we convince all the kingdoms, once we go back to how things used to be, it'll be ok," but they can't ever go back to that!! It's impossible!! It's gone!! It's gone!! The eliatrope people may still live, but their culture, their history, their country, has been gone for far too long to ever get back.
