Soooo, uhh...
Titans, right? They're like.
Evil and shit.
...Right?
Well of course! Of course they are! They are the fear of the dark. Beings of pure destruction that cannot be comprehended, let alone reasoned with. They're so bad even resident pacifist and fluffy boi Ralsei Not-Quite-Dreemurr didn't hesitate to tell us to fuck shit up.
.....So why in the Pointed Tail is their battle theme called "GUARDIAN"?
I've seen some talk about there being more to the Titans than just mindless killing, and I thought that sounded neat, and they pointed out how the game does keep track of whether we destroyed or purified the Titan Spawn. Which is also cool, and also points in the direction of "Are we the baddies?"
But I didn't see anyone talk about the song name, nor did it hit me until now, how weird it is for the theme of something that does nothing but FIGHT, something that incarnates death and destruction, to be named after a protector. A defender.
GUARDIAN of what? What are you GUARDING, Titans? Is it my sanity? Because if so, you suck at it.
Or maybe I'm just late to the party and everyone's been talking about this and I just haven't seen it. That's also possible. It IS late and I SHOULD sleep.
