...Is it wrong to admit I've thought of this? Admittedly with Zodiark turning out to have turned over to the good side after the what happened so long ago, but still.

Well, what are your thoughts on it? I know you usually have some good ideas :0.

I've had the consideration that we are blend of both of their power. If we were purely of the light, as some suggest, then Dark Knight would be near impossible for us.

We do have a sentient dark side we come to terms with after all which could give credence to this theory.
We have our Warrior of Light Persona, and this Persona born of Darkness basically saying we dipp into both equally.

The thing is both sides in the light/dark conflict seek to banish, destroy or otherwise unmake the other. Perhaps what is needed is not destruction, but a passing of the torch?

The thing is, there is light and darkness in all people. It's even in something as simple as our mortality: all life must eventually end to allow for the growth of new life. However, in the case of Hydaelyn, she seemed to have banished Zodiark not because of his darkness, but because of his greed and ambition that threatened to cause destruction.

If anything was purely of the Light, I suspect that it wouldn't be given choices. In our case, we would be tempered by Hydaelyn with no free will left to us. However, Hydaelyn allows and encourages us to think for ourselves and make our own decisions.

As for Dark Knight, darkness is not all that there is to it. If anything, it is the job that gives our character the most freedom, which is something that Hydaelyn encourages and even actively fosters in us. The Dark Knight acts in accordance with their morals and feelings, and so does the Warrior of Light, albeit with the guidance of friends and allies.
