See, the thing about me is that I don't care if the corruption is sentient has emotions and feels lonely. I don't care if it questions its right to live as much as any other players. I'm too resentful of all it killed in the Kingdom of Null.
I feel like lots of other povs don't have the full picture of what happened to that kingdom like Lukey pov as he read in his past in the memory lane. Yes, most of them know about the calamities from the library archives, but that book is not even slightly as touching as Newt and Lukey's history. Because they are from the kingdom pov and theirs is from two civilians povs.
How everyone's life's got slowly destroyed by the calamities, the few survivors gathering scared near the kingdom castle, just trying to survive, and still having to work and fix their homes and care for their loved ones and try to build a future even with the looming treath of the corruption killing them bit by bit. How Newt, turned into a keeper and living thru milenia, still thinksand mourns what his life could've had been if it was not destroyed by an apocalypse.
How in the very last days the kingdom gathered everyone to the end raid in one last attempt to kill what was killing them. Everyone, even the children and the elderly. We know about grandma keeper. She was just an old lady and she went to the end war because she had no other options.
The corruption and it's calamities killed everyone, and what it didn't kill it trapped in the shape of keepers. So even if the corruption is sentient and feels lonely, what right to live it has in this universe after all it's done?
