I'm sure there was a connection of hollows and the dark sign. that the dark signs job was to suck souls out of branded humans to feed the flame. That the brand was Gwyns ultimate trick in his sleeves. And the reason why the most of them ended up as hollow husks who didn't were collecting souls and humanity. The price for prolonging the age of fire. A world filled with mummies in the end. A corpse world. Like an entity not willing to die and to reborn anew. Was this redconned? I read nothing about that here despite beeing discussed intesivly because you can hardly call prolonging the age of fire "good" if it ends up beeing a horror show. But in DS3 discussions its all about "bro, ofc a world with a shining sun is better than a dark world". It wasn't that simple. It came with a high price.
