[Metastachydium]

Belkar takes his last breath... yeah, could be his death (which is what we expect). It could also be him refusing to take another life at the end of the series, or being unable to, giving up his homicidal ways for a life of paficism.

The issue with that is all the other clues regarding his fate, for which only my Air Gnome Forced Labour Bypass accounts for in any "Belkar lives" possible world I've seen proposed so far (and the Air Gnome Forced Labour Bypass is, while entirely plausible at surface level, incredibly stupid).

What am I saying... he's going to grab ahold of something bad and sacrifice himself to destroy it by becoming snarl meat.

Annnnd I don't follow anymore. Are you saying he won't die because he'll die instead?
