That's a really good observation and I am inclined to agree. You are right, Manus and his humanity were resting peaceful in the dark before they got to him. More and more the dark seems more appealing. If I think of the Old Ones who got the Lord Souls not as Gods but as beings that tried to be Gods and harness the power of Gods and implement their own order in the world (and that Gwyn himself created the curse when he linked the flame to maintain this order), then I think that the only way to be free and to move on is to break the order and the cyclical history that Gwyn created. (I wonder if this is an allegory for the Church in real life - the Church and its leaders not being God themselves but wielding extraordinary power and trying to impose their order on the world).

hahaha, your friend truly brought the darkness.
