Yeah, But Saint Doesn't Really Just Killl Them, I Don't Remember Exactly The Dialog, But They Mention

Yeah, but Saint doesn't really just killl them, I don't remember exactly the dialog, but they mention a weird kind of peace they feel, ascension isn't death, ascension is liberation of the burdens of life, likely given to those who deserve it if what that pearl that said that selfish ancients transformed into echoes was true. The purpose of the game is showing, apart of a completely independent AI that makes of the game an ecosystem in which you aren't important, the long-term consequences of your actions, world isn't fair and rain world, as another "world" (inside a game), neither. Anyway, yes, rain world is very sad, but I wouldn't have it any other way, it's one of the things that make this game rain world. Sorry if what I said doesn't make much sense or I explained wrong or my english is bad

Sometimes I feel sad that in rain world, in the greater story of the iterators, they never have a happy ending. You can play every campaign as many times as you’d like, and that fact never changes. Both Pebbles and Moon end up in a terrible situation, rotting away in their own corpses all alone until they slowly die from their systems decaying. The best you can do is ascend them as Saint, but is that really a happy ending? Putting them out of their misery through mercy killing them? Not even to mention the possibility of Saint’s campaign not even being real.

What really gets me though, is that even if the events prior to the game never took place, Five Pebbles never got the golden pearl and never made the rot and Moon never collapsed due to his water usage, they would STILL be in the same place! Eventually they would still inevitably be left to decay, all alone, unable to contact anyone else, just waiting to die. Because that’s the horrible fate of every iterator. There is basically nothing they can do to prevent it from happening, all they can hope to do is slow it down, but eventually they all end up the same. Alone and miserable.
