Agreed. Everyone in the game says the Arisen has the godly will to live - so it makes little sense that the Arisen would commit suicide (lack of will to live).

The lack of information provided by the game leaves plenty of room for my imagination to provide a better context to make the ending more palatable.

But just as it is - the ending is very unsatisfying on several levels. 1) suicide (not a particularly noble action for my Arisen to be doing), 2) the unsettling transformation of the pawn - and the duplicity as he/she wears your skin and deceives your loved ones. 3) what happens to the world now, if there's no Seneschal to give will and life? Will it become a dead place filled with empty pawns? That's not a very bright future.
