I think it's just Jadis' attempt to wine and dine Alison just like Mottom did. She wants Alison to embrace her point of view (which just happens to be nihilism)

BTW I finished All Night Laundry and it owns though it does get kinda shaky when it jumps from tense survival horror to bullshit time shenanigans

and gently caress naming two supporting characters Emie and Amie but also gently caress Amie specifically

I do kind of get why it shifts gears so thoroughly, it was starting to wear a bit thin IMO. Still good though.

Both tones are good (the time bullshit is very unique), and obviously you can't have all tension all the time without some kind of release. it's just a hell of a jump

Feeling called out by the alt text: allison, i was not lying, there were plants in the atrium

I want to say that this is all Jadis manipulating Allison by breaking her mentally until she agrees to anything, but it's been well established by now that Jadis is not the one in charge of her own actions since using the machine.

If everything is predetermined, who or what is deciding the sequence of events that is reality? Is there even an order or will in charge or is it all random? And if it's chance, why did all the iterations of the timeline prior to Allison getting the key in this one turn out so similar anyway?

GIven everyone's belief that there is a True Heir and their belief that they had him in their custody, Zoss either
(a) had a type and the demiurges had a very good read what on it was (even though they had no basis for pattern recognition), or
(b) was literally just picking Zaid every single time.

There is no who, there is no what. There is no grand order or meaning except for that which you create.

What the Demiurges got was through an interpereter rather than straight from her, remember. I'd take the accuracy of that with a big grain of salt. The prophecy might've just said "hero" or "heir", and the priest's owm assumption being they must be male.
