I love to think about *why* the well of the lost appeared after the merge. Was it an answer to the mass chaos and pain and ruin of the merge? Could the departed and cursed realms only fit so many dead? The cursed realm merging with the departed realm must have been such an event. It's like even *she* could only gorge herself on so much before splitting open.
I dunno its just so specific to me that souls could only move on after the merge. It always felt like the realms of the dead must have reached capacity somehow
