Not as far as I would be concerned, no. Here's an excerpt from a lore video I'm working on;

'At first, I first thought that we were a previous Lord Of Cinder, chosen to link the fire and extend the age; but that apparently isn’t the case. Miyazaki has apparently stated that we had attempted to link the fire pre-game, but failed. Our body was unable to be used as kindling to link the flame, turning us to ash and presumably completely destroying our soul in the process. If this is the case, it would seem that the First Flame has grown weaker and less predictable with each linking, now unable to certainly be kindled, regardless of the power given.'

I thought the same, at first. But it seems that we failed to link the flame, and in turn are not a Lord Of Cinder but are instead Unkindled. It seems these two terms are polar opposite to each other.
