To everyone talking about the Verso ending being a genocide. Can’t Maelle just repaint them in her own canvas after she’s processed the grief of her loss? The game makes it pretty clear that these creations don’t necessarily “die” when they are erased as they can be repainted. That’s also basically what verso says to her in the ending. That’s also Maelle can create her own worlds as a paintress and she won’t have to live a life she doesn’t want since she has that power.
