Line 1:
{{tropework}}
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: Due to the fairly confusing ending and inconsistencies with {{spoiler|the game's manual}}, there is some dispute over the motivation of {{spoiler|Jeremiah.}} [[The Reveal]] involves {{spoiler|Jeremiah stating that he has been [[Dead All Along]] and [[Evil All Along]] and that he used Patrick to kill off his siblings so that he could use the power of the Undying King for himself.}} However, the {{spoiler|journal entries written by him in the manual after his "death" in [[World War One]] are written as though his "cover story" was true}} meaning that there are two general explanations: {{spoiler|Jeremiah was telling the truth in [[The Reveal]] and the journal entries were misinformation- which leads to some [[Fridge Logic]]-}} or {{spoiler|Jeremiah chose to lie to some degree during [[The Reveal]] and was trying to goad Patrick into killing him for an unknown reason.}}
** Alternatively, {{spoiler|some part of the old Jeremiah still survived and wrote the diary but, ultimately, the evil undead counterpart took over completely. As for goading Patrick into killing him with the Scythe, that was the point, to be final sacrifice for the Undying King to awake - the last Covenant was needed and Patrick couldn't have been a replacement.}}
