Tales of Duviri is a storybook written by Euleria Entrati for the purpose of teaching children how to handle the manic flood of emotion that comes with Void exposure.
I pose a question: why does Euleria feel so strongly about this?
Her interactions with her own children are... let's call them wanting, and dialog implies that the negative aspects of their relationship--her denigrating, controlling nature, the distrust, etc--did not begin only after the Infestation brainrot set in.
We also know that she holds her father in extremely high esteem, but Albrecht did not think much of Tales of Duviri (see: him talking about his previous disdain for it in his own Duviri notes). Euleria put resources into writing Tales of Duviri instead of more traditional science, and Albrecht did not think much of it.
So why did Euleria write Tales of Duviri?
Let's rewind a step. Void exposure-induced mania, the whole thing Tales of Duviri is written to help manage.
How was that discovered and studied? It clearly was studied, enough to be a recognized condition and for the Orokin to build the iso vaults and for Euleria to write Tales of Duviri. But who would they have observed this mania in if Void research was an abandoned dead-end line of study?
Perhaps...the man obsessed with the Void who'd survived an unshielded Void dive?
Euleria had patient zero of Void mania sitting at her dinner table. Albrecht is the character who's undoubtedly had the most Void exposure.
Albrecht himself must have exhibited the Void mania and mood swings that Tales of Duviri exists to teach caution of.
And that's why Euleria wrote it; she had this gyroscope of a mood swing at home. She admired Albrecht too much to consciously deride his lack of control as irresponsible and so she channeled her energy into writing Tales of Duviri instead.
The emotion spirals of Duviri are loosely based off of what Euleria witnessed in the Entrati household and particularly Albrecht himself.
I don't believe that any courtier is a 1:1 translation of a member of the Entrati household, but more that their toxic interactions and dramatic heights reflected things that Euleria herself saw--or lived.
This reading of the Duviri characters and story--that they mean things to Euleria specifically--gives us a fun new lens to look at all of the chapters with.
For example, Mathila.
"Two children, and no memory of her husband. Poor Mathila."
Two children like Euleria herself, eh?
Mathila loved her husband. He also textually does not exist. He's not on the screen or in the text. He is a memory, and one that Mathila herself cannot even remember. There is no portrayal of their love.
Pivot to a writer's perspective. You need to write a loving relationship. You look to real life for inspiration, right? If you're a married woman needing to write a married woman in love, you naturally look to your own relationship.
And if you can't find anything to base that love off of? Well...move that character offscreen. Just tell about the loving relationship, don't show. Actually, do you even have anything to tell about? Well. Move the entire loving relationship offscreen, then. She's got amnesia. Nobody needs to talk about the love to sell it or make it feel real now. The narrator can simply mention it as a fact and it need not be challenged. Euleria doesn't have to imagine a loving family life between a husband and wife and their two children and question why that's hard for her. There. Problem fucking solved.
Another parallel that fairly started screaming at me once I started considering that the Duviri courtiers had meaning to Euleria specifically: Luscinia.
"I was created to be Sorrow, written into being, to serve as a lesson... can that change?"
Luscinia knows that she is a tool. As much as she dreams of being more, she knows very well that she is a tool--both a literal narrative element to teach a lesson and within the story itself Thrax's servant (his personal songbird).
Is there anyone in Euleria's life who might have some angst over their position as a tool? A servant who wants to escape the limited definitions of their role?
And so... here I am, back to my old role. The diligent servant. Albrecht would have smiled at that, I think.
Loid. It's Loid.
Luscinia: "This structure and I share much. Both of us once useful, both of us discarded, both of us now derelict. Both forgotten." Loid: "How might this relic make himself useful today?"
Both Luscinia and Loid are also capable of surprising amounts of ruthless violence. Luscinia has no hesitation telling you to kill the Dax or otherwise wreak vengeance on her jailers. Loid's Necramech lines feature him ranging from being excited for ensuing violence to coldly promising the Murmur regret.
The Duviri Tales were a subconscious form of therapy for Euleria herself as well, allowing her to write a story where emotional explosions were a problem that must be addressed rather than a social struggle to be suffered through at the whims of the more powerful.

After playing Whispers in the Walls, I wonder if one of the reasons that Euleria Entrati married Father/Vilcor is because she saw that Albrecht and Loid couldn't be together publicly because of caste differences.
She wanted someone who could be her partner in work (the way Loid helped Albrecht every step of the way) and in public. Which is why she's so disappointed in Father when they've systematically failed to find Albrecht...and eventually comes to appreciate Vilcor for what he's really good at once she lets go of her father's ghost.
The whole Entrati family needs therapy. But I guess that's why they adopted a Tenno, right?

We all know how the first trip into the Void was for Albrecht, but imagine what it was like for Euleria/Gomaitru.
You're in this dark lab, all alone aside from your batshit dad and his scrunkly bald cat, waiting for him to tell you to pull the lever to split reality open. Suddenly, the glass diving bell he was in topples over, shatters, and he disappears.
What do you do in this situation? Just...start cleaning up the diving bell of glass shards? Apparently so. Nothing else to do until he comes back. She probably thought he was dead. But then suddenly, he comes back, terrified out of his mind and borderline suicidal. But he comes back with a giant finger?
And now, your father who was so unsuccessful all his assistants left, has some elderly twink boyfriend? It's implied that Euleria was a child when the trip happened, or at the very least a young adult. She saw her family's reputation ruined, and then suddenly restored overnight by some eldritch phalanges. And so now he has assistants lining up for kilometres to help him out, but he just really likes this one catty guy with long hair and pointy glasses in a tail coat.
Let's not forget that Euleria saved a piece if the Seriglass bell, and used it to cut her husband's arm off in an argument, and now her mother in law sells it to kids to make guns out of.

What's hilarious to me is that Albrecht's Notes confirm that Euleria's narrations are literally happening aloud in Duviri.
Just imagining the Courtiers trying to go about their sneaky schemes whilst Euleria's booming disembodied voice snitches on them from the sky.

Going insane right now over just a few sentences like how Albrecht raised his daughter alone, (his daughter who has her mothers eyes) Loid carrying Son on his back around the garden, and how Necraloid (the Entrati's most loyal servant) was built to keep Loid from being alone. Aslo that during the Incident(TM) only Euleria and Kalymos were there because everyone else given up on Albrecht.
Like, I love the theory that Albrecht and Loid are Euleria's parents etc. but. BUT. LISTEN.
Albrecht who always tried to do right by his daughter falling apart just a little bit (a lot) after meeting with the Man in The Wall, getting colder and trying to keep distance from everyone.
And then this random twink shows up, who wants to assist Albrecht in his research and "No I don't need help!" but Euleria is just like "You absolutely do, you're a mess." And Albrecht finally coming to see Loid in a new light after years of working together.
The family notices that Albrecht is in a much better place than before and quickly connects the dots between that and how close the two of them seems to be, and just going, "You know what? That's great."
And then Albrecht at the end of his life falls back into bad habits, and decides to do, whatever the hells happening in Whispers in the Walls and asks for Loid's help and secrecy because he can't let his daughter know of this.
He builds Necraloid because even if he's gotten closer to his family than he was after meeting Wally, he never quite understood the dinamics after that. He didn't really understood the rivalry between his grandkids, just why Grandmother is even there, or how much his daughter is worried about him.
Also Loid. He absolutely does not understand where the family stands with Loid. So he believes that he has to build a little robot to keep Loid company after he leaves, because who else is gonna do that, completely missing the fact that the family adores the man.
His grandson constantly in his heels beggin for piggy back rides, his granddaughter seeks him out all the time to show him her new fishes, his daughter has tea with him at least once a week where they just vent to each other about everything and everyone, grandmother rubs off on him like hell and Vilcor is absolutely terrified of the duo that is his wife's non-offical adopted dad and his mother but is too scared to say anything.
So Albrecht leaves, oblivious to the fact that he's the only one who didn't quite notice that there is no need to worry about Loid's company, but really he is an infuriating man who never just listened and Loid does love him for that.
So he keeps his secret, (whatever happened to him, noone will know) and he mourns alongside his daughter and grandkids and then lives the remaining of his life with them. But he is no orokin, and he still has much to do (the Kalymos sequence) so he has to leave too, and after thinking about it a lot, gives Necraloid a (for a long time) final command, to serve his family just as he served him, to keep them company, and to not let them slip away, as his Albrecht did long ago.

Ok, so im back on my bullshit about narrative contrasts between the Zariman and Deimos, but I just realized one more connection that I'll have to think about more (these are just my surface level thoughts, could be very wrong)
Isn't it interesting how much of theme identity and grief plays in both The Holdfasts and the Entrati/Cavia?
Like, think about it: The Entrati, and even more so the Cavia, are defined and base themselves on what is past. Like from the rank up dialogue with the Family, to Loid's and Tagfer's entire characters, to even partially Fibb and Bird 3. All are, in some way shape or form, defined by their past. Just for the sake of getting everyone on the same page, ill just do a quick recap:
-Entrati family- Their arcs revolve around forgiving the slights they went through in the past. Be it the amputation of Father's arm, the destruction of the specimes by Son, or even the abusive way Mother treated Son. It's all about forgiveness
-Loid- I mean, do I even have to say anything? Old Man Yaoi, essentially
-Tagfer- Again, need I say much? Albrecht shenanigans
-Fibb- Not only does he feel extremely guilty for what he did to Minn, but it's alo my belief that's the entire reason he's the leader and not someone like Loid. As a way of atonement, making sure the rest are safe. Something something Norgs inflate their heads when threatened to appear larger.
-Bird 3- Whilst Bird is very much the most open to forgetting the past, I believe he too is defined by it, if only the way he likes to think about it a lot.
Meanwhile, even if I don't remember the Holdfasts quite as well, being literal ghosts who reflect upon their actions does tie them to this theming.
Though, I do find it strange how they don't, at least at first, share the theme of identity. Like, they know who they are, as opposed to the Entrati and the Cavia who have a big emphasis on their names. Speaking of:
-Entrati family- They literally give names to each other as a way of healing.
-Loid- Now this is where it gets interesting. Im wondering if Loid is mostly the bitter, cynical ahole he is because his life was defined by Albrecht. Like, isn't it weird how, despite supposedly being the same person, Necraloid seems so much more different than Loid to the point of bickering? I wonder if that's because Necraloid, unburdened by Albrecht, was free to discover himself by interacting with/serving the rest of the family and Otak?
Tagfer- Despite hating Albrecht, Tagfer seems to have very much kept the label he was given, even if he does repurpose it as a proper name. Though, I genuinely wonder why that is?
Fibbonaci- Literally gave himself his name as a way to appear smarter.
Bird 3- Probably oblivious to the intent behind the label placed upon him.
Please, if you have any more additions, feel free to add them in the notes and I'll reblog them

It will never not be funny to me that DE decided to make the Spiral narration diegetic. That is, everyone in Duviri wakes up to hear Euleria going on about how Lodun is the Prince of Nothing, etc.

"Her concern for the children was not merely pastoral attentiveness. It was a direct strike against the Indifference. She was teaching the weak to be strong in the very places where those cold fingers could reach, and through her act of compassion, spitting in the face of alienation and despair."
