Maybe it’s just me (and the Olrox defender in me), but I don’t think the Olrox\Mizrak situation is as bad as some of you are making it out to be. Considering what we’ve seen, at least.

Was the whole situation ideal? No. Could it have been avoided? I guess. But, guys, what else was Olrox going to do? Let Mizrak die when he had a way to save him, especially after Mizrak had just told him he was afraid to die?

I don’t know, but that whole conversation really felt like an implicit request. Because Mizrak knows Olrox, knows what happened in his past, and was aware of what the risks of his situation were.

Of course, one could argue that Mizrak wasn’t entirely himself at the time, but would you risk that? Would you honestly be able to sit by the person you loved, watch him die, afraid, and do nothing?

I don’t think I would, tbh.

Regardless, it is true that the turning won’t be easy for Mizrak. He feels a very profound religious guilt, which won’t be easy to overcome. He will likely also blame Olrox at some point, and the issue will need to be resolved.

However, it’s nothing that can’t be dealt with and be developed—even if that development ends up being a tragic one. That doesn’t make Olrox—or even Mizrak—the villain of this story.

I seriously don’t even understand how the turning of Olrox’s past lover can be taken as anything more than a general parallel when we don’t know the whole story.

And, honestly, I do feel like Mizrak and Emmanuel’s last conversation—before Emmanuel died—foreshadowed Mizrak’s path a bit. Because, while being completely different, Mizrak eventually developed Emmanuel’s same fears about dying.
