Talk:True Pacifist Route/@comment-28228525-20160416224613

Alert! Everything here is a giant spoiler, please don't read it until you finish this ending...

Okay, so I recently finished true pacifist route and there is a thing I don't understand. We got Asriel as the final boss, right? In the game it's explained that the monsters need 7 human souls to destroy the barrier and that 1 human soul is equalivient to thousands of monster souls. Asriel in the end broke the barrier while having only 6 human souls, which means that he had enough monster souls to make it count like he had 7 human souls. After he destroyed the barrier he let the souls free, all of them human and monster souls and what I'm pointing my finger on is that releasing the monster souls is good because they all wanted to get to the surface, but why did he release the human souls? They weren't planning on coming back to life :P Couldn't he keep all the six of them or atleast one to just keep being himself and live happily with Asgore, Toriel and Frisk?
