So, to recap for all of those who might be lost or confused:
Ines, Carcel and Oscar (the prince) are on their fourth life repeat. Oscar remembers all past 3 lives, Ines only the past 2 and Carcel is starting to remember bits and pieces of his past lives.
Ines and Carcel died in unfated ways during their first life, so they were reborn with no memories. However, they would have been allowed a gift (or wish), we don't know what they each asked for. Oscar (1st life) either died in an unfated way and made a wish to keep his memories (The same way Emiliano -the artist- did) or committed suicide and therefore kept his memories. Either way, this is what allows him to fuck things up so royally (heh) during their 2nd life repeat. We don't know Oscar's motivations, but I've read some spoilers from novel readers that mention something about Ines' brother planning a rebellion and that being the reason why Oscar goes after Ines in their 2nd life. It is also mentioned that during this 2nd life he becomes obsessed with Ines (possibly after she kills herself) ergo why he continues to pursue her in their 3rd and 4th lives. What started as revenge against her brother evolved into an obsession for Ines, that divulged into a need to torture all of them (Ines, her brother and Carcel). Carcel on the other hand, has probably gotten a wish at the end of each life but has never wished to keep his memories. Hence why Oscar calls him dumb in what seems to be their 2nd life (since he implies Ines doesn't remember either). This also suggests that Oscar didn't kill himself in the 1st life, he probably died in the rebellion and was so pissed that he wished to keep his memories so as to get his revenge.
So essentially, Oscar is the reason they all keep meeting unfated ends or killing themselves. Anastasio (an aid of God?) is the one who is now allowing Carcel to get some of his memories back, in an attempt to aid both Ines and him to get them out of this Loop their in.
In my opinion God shouldnt have put "keeping your memories" on the table at all, be it by wishing or commiting suicide. But maybe thats the lesson at the end of the day. Maybe they all need to die unfated deaths once more and choose to return with no memories so that they can meet their fated end. Idk, but this story is absolute gold either way.
