I don't believe there actually is a heaven in the Dragon's Dogma universe, when you question savan about eternity he talks about how as seneschal you will repeadetly see the same people dying and being born anew, in an endless cycle, also, in my third playthrough, savan wasn't the seneschal I had to fight, I actually had to fight the Arisen from my 2nd playthrough, that was pretty epic, And I think it occured because I changed my phsyical appearence (Speculation, and probably not because all I did was get a different scar.) To me, it seems to confirm that there is an endless cycle, Tho, It doesn't make sense that my arisen would be seneschal because he killed himself, I think the game didn't switch out savan on the second playthrough to avoid confusion. Though, this endless cycle theory would seem to prevent any form of a sequel, so I think they'll either explain it in dlc or make a sequel where the protagonist of the game is trying to break the cycle the entire game, not just in the last 40 seconds of it. Then again, it is capcom. Their canonnicity is notoriously terrible.
