    I tried mixing things up with a Simpsons joke, but apparently even those don't find an audience here.

    Yeah, this theory ain't crackpot at all. It ties together so many things so nicely. Here's hoping another case of great minds think alike happens here.

The shame of that moment is part of what he believes is the death of his person, the root of his inability to commit to something, his emptiness and bitterness. Of course he wouldn't want to admit weakness to Roy.

    Of course, he does tell Roy he was there and that he didn't make a difference and was an apprentice at the time. But the stone hard facts are easier to deliver than confessing to an estranged son that the reason you are garbage as a person is because of this event. In other words, Eugene is too prideful to admit to his emotional involvement and vulnerability.
    I just can't see Eugene being capable of such insight into himself. He thinks Roy's issues is because he didn't learn the rules of football. Basically Eugene isn't capable of the self-criticism required to construct an external "Fyron's Son" entity. In other words, Eugene wouldn't see this as "the death of himself as a person".

    Since theories can be pets, and such beings may be descendants from survivors from a previous world populated by sentient concepts, it's also possible that Fyron's late wife was a metaphor, another descendant of Conceptworld survivors, and thus their son was also a metaphor, or a half-metaphor maybe.
    Each one of us, alone, is but a drop in the sea
    Our powers pale compared with the great heroes
    Our battles don’t hit theheadlines or shake the earth
    But they are few, can’t be everywhere, and we, many
    So, when the world or universe needs saving, they come
    But when people needs saving, we are the ones to appear

    The bit in one of the calendars where Roy tells Elan he can't make puns based on words no one knows how to pronounce would apply to "onomatopoeia" as much as it does to "sahuagin". ZOWIE!

    How do you pronounce onomatopoeia? I always pronounced it Ah-NO-ma-NO-P-ah, but looking at it, that’s not how it should be pronounced.

    Sometimes, I really hate English.

    If your "NO" sounds like "nah" (as in, rhymes with "Ah"), I think you've got the midwestern US pronunciation right. (I pronounce it with a "t" instead of an "n" in the middle.)

    I think it's more likely that he killed him himself, because of his jealousy toward the only person who can claim to be Fyron's one and true son, and then framed Xykon for it.

    There is zero way he would've been slated for a lawful good after life if he did this.
