So you ' ve not only shown you have no integrity as a CO , you ' ve alienated the people who for free keep your website running . Despicable . <| sep |> hey i ' ll check it out shortly and tell you what I think of it . with regards to the mind going . I think some people actually do want that us to return to our bestial forms . i think vendrick has kind of given up and wants this but i also think its possible to survive the age of dark with reason intact . becasue while the first flame is out souls of which the first flame is just a really big beacon of are ' still dancing around in the darkness on the horizon ' as the firekeeper tells us . I also think we physically see what that might look like in the image of the transposing kiln . I need to write a post on that thing sometime as i think its quite significantFor that reason i think the smaller quantities of flame in humanity would survive the darkness as they will flit about in it like the ' embers linked by lords past ' The problem were having in ds 3 is that the first flame , linked to all souls has been burning longer than it should , and this is actually breaking down the concept of humanity and reason by burning ALL the souls .
