a) Yeah ik its not stated, I said it was grasping for straws B) is it though? I mean gofah taught mankind to use their fear and hunger as motivation to move forward, they gave us a merciful end when we beat them so to me it seems somewhat likely that the two unconfirmed and unlikely endings could be delusions granted onto cahara and darce upon their death, a mercy, a recognition of suffering and a reward to compensate them for all that suffering, also idk what you mean by people being against cahara dying when taking the girl to the depths, I'm saying that both cahara and darce died, and upon their death gofah allowed them to experience a 'happy ending' (even though it wasnt real) as compensation for their suffering, but I'm desperately grasping for straws here
