>>118732533>You misinterpreted me. I mean the plot point of her finally losing her confidence because she can no longer see the future. I was not. The whole point of her introduction is her coyly leading her friends all into playing this game. She coerces Rose to play by suggesting her dead cat could come back to life by playing it, for example. She's shown to be attuned to her Dreamself long before everyone else wakes up. We're set up very early that she knows more than everyone else.
Do you even know the symbolism of Jade's entry item? The pinata, where when she tries to hit it like a normal pinata it explodes and doesn't actually activate? That she has to take a shot in the dark, one made of faith, to actually activate it? Jade's whole arc is learning to let go of what she thinks she knows and do something that comes instinctually to her. She loses her foresight with Prospit's destruction, she loses her direction, and she has to just act by believing what others tell her (namely the trolls, people she hated and avoided speaking to prior to the game starting).
She trusts them enough to manage breeding the Genesis Frog successfully, and in the process of doing this when she speaks to Echidna she's asked to do an impossible task. Jade, despite not knowing at all HOW she's supposed to do it, accepts. This is taking another leap of faith, one she isn't prone to doing naturally.
This is ultimately rewarded when she's killed by CD, and then resurrected as Godtier. It's and echo of the moment she took that shot in the dark, and is rewarded with salvation.
