Pronoun used in lvl 87 MSQ 'Thou Must Live, Die, and Know' cutscene

Technically its correct. (as odd as it is)
He/Him/Man in old english is gender neutral. They did not mean "male" but they became synonymous with "male" because why say "he/him/man" if "she/her/woman" only refers to a female? they must be talking about a male, right? And thats why its current use means "male" instead of its original meaning.

Now, I also agree it feels weird, since most ppl are going to see that line as odd, and agree it was a poor choice. especially since the rest of the writing clearly doesnt illustrate this.

yea I understand they are trying to make the quote have an old English feeling, as the sentence also mentions things like 'paradise' and 'wings', but it's still kind of meh to me.
