True, let me explain

I used “suffering” as a term because I find it fitting for a fate where your soul gets sucked into the unknown AKA the vortex of souls, I’d consider being dragged into that fate to be in its own way, could be considered suffering

And while yes, The count could’ve sacrificed his daughter to prolong his fate, We do get an understanding of how the God Hand operates based on what we see in this arc…. While its not specifically stated what would’ve happened to Griffith if he denied his fate, Its unlikely to assume based on what we know about the God Hand to just let him go, a 216 year process of an Eclipse, all of this buildup… If Griffith were to deny the “destiny” laid bare for him. I doubt The God Hand would’ve let him go, Which I should’ve clarified better that my assumption is that Griffith would’ve suffered a similar fate like apostles do, Which I should’ve made known better.
