Forum:Ending Speculation

A user posted this theory on a GameFAQs message board and I think it's quite plausible.

At the very end, when you stab yourself with the Godsbane and your body and Main Pawn fall to Gransys and merge, you don't actually die, it's a requirement to separate your spirit from your body and ascend to Seneschal. Also, it allows a part of you (via your pawn and it retaining your memories) to live the happy normal life with your love interest as reward.

And a question: Do you think that the former Seneschal (i.e. Savan in this case) becomes the first Dragon of the new cycle? Someone has to fill the void left by you killing Grigori, because an Arisen would have to first kill a Dragon to get to face you and die to become a Dragon.

Poor Savan if that's the case, he believes he's finding peace but he actually has to wait like another 1000 years or so till another Arisen pops up epic enough to take him out.

Thoughts?
