Did he truly regret his actions, or was it all an act so that the Heir would come and sacrifice more souls to the Heart of Darkness in their crusade? He claims that he killed himself to both deny the villagers justice and become the Heart's avatar, but it might not really be the Ancestor speaking it's possible that the Heart just assumed his form, or made him its puppet, or is creating an illusion to try breaking the Heir's mind before it's killed (which does succeed, albeit a bit too late). In short, it's Unreliable Narrator to the max.Īnd on that note, is the Heart the source of humanity and as invincible as the ending cinematic claims, or is it an alien corruption that could someday be utterly destroyed? As mentioned on the main page, there does seem to be some level of genuine divine power bestowed by the Light, and the Heart can be damaged by perfectly ordinary guns and swords.
The reveal in the Color of Madness DLC that the Comet that strikes the Farmstead contains a gestating being of similar power proves that the Heart of Darkness was likely lying.While it might still be humanity's creator, the fact that it fears the potential power of the Sleeper and will battle the invader over control of the planet should the Heir fail to contain it makes it very unlikely that the Heart of Darkness is as invincible as it claims, or that its "birth" is inevitable. In another bout for the Ancestor, serving the Blood from the Countess to the aristocrats has been up for debate.Was it truly a shining example of the Ancestor being an idiot and tampering with things he didn't know? Was he subconsciously tempted to serve it as a sick joke towards his social circle of "bloodsuckers"? Or was the Countess showing her true colors during his murder attempt giving him, as the opportunist he is, a perfect chance and means to eliminate the degenerated aristocracy of the Hamlet in one fell swoop to claim their assets as his own? At the end of the Antiquarians comic, it isn't shown whether the Antiquarian chooses to save the captive woman or not.Did the Highwayman undergo a Heel≯ace Turn because he couldn't stand the guilt over shooting a mother and child, or was it because he shot his own family?.Due to the nature of the backstory comics' lack of dialogue and ambiguity, this raises a few questions for the classes.
