He might drop hints as to what we need to do to avoid the bad ending.
The most predictable thing he'll do is give us advice on killing each of the Siblings; because , y'know, perpetuation of the Cycles.

What makes you think that?
...What makes you think he'll even be honest?

We should just fuck up the cycle as much as we can. It would be very satisfying to piss off Oric and the angels.

Alright then. You tell us how to do that.

So what is the bad end?

I'mma assume it's a TPK.

The advice is "Don't get yourselves killed, dipshits."

Well, you can tell Oric doesn't want us to ally with the six siblings from his response to seeing us ally with Proxxy, so somehow getting all the siblings to join us would really screw with how things usually play out.

And presumably the bad ending is just an ending we don't want.

Here's a thought.

If we really wanted to disrupt the cycle, the worst thing to do would be destroy the Astral Influx.  No Ciro Soul, no target, no cycle, all is wrecked.


I'm not at all advocating that, but it's certainly the nuclear option.

Or we could use up all of our soul charge on purpose and become a will born. That would fuck up everything.

Edit: though destroying the astral influx might do that anyway and make us impossible to cure. Though destroying it may be impossible.

...until Oric un-willborns Ciro, and resets the cycle.

We could make various impossible plans to break the cycle and try them all until we roll a 20, since we can't just repeat one plot over and over again.

Including the game itself. Especially if those theories about the Astral Influx being related to our control over Ciro are true.

...until Oric un-willborns Ciro, and resets the cycle.
If he can. Probably easier to get a new Target, really.

We could just destroy Oric's Soul.

But that raises the issue of the Angels themselves. And the Last Seraphim, who EATS Souls/People

Ayup. In the end...have we considered allying with Oric, if the angels turn out to be worse?

the best ending is to kill off All Angels, Oric, shopkeepers, then lead the Siblings to siege Haria, where we will depose the King, and sit upon our Loot Throne.
