It's widely accepted that Asriel is The Angel That Has Seen The Surface, according to the prophesy.

But all my research leads to the conclusion that Chara's original human soul still exists in Asriel's chest, whether he's aware of it or not. Which is why he didn't fade back into a flower, and survived until the world was changed.

Perhaps, then, Chara is also The Angel of Prophesy? The one who would either grant the monsters their freedom, or destroy them all?

We're linked to Chara too. And our actions determine which interpretation of the prophesy happens. Perhaps we, who thought we were Chara, are The Angel?

This is about more than just the monster world.

Remember during the No Mercy run that Undyne, Mettaton and Sans question whether you intend to destroy the human world as well.

Monsters. Humans. Everyone.

It's about life surviving against darkness.

Compassion winning out against apathy and hopelessness.

I do think the Dark World is more than just a game.

Asriel is still down there in the dark. And perhaps some other monsters as well. Giftrot mentioned they were staying behind, too.

There's a lot in Deltarune I still don't understand.

Like how in Undertale your SOUL always makes the teleport sound and enters a pocket dimension for battles. But in Deltarune, your heart can actually be damaged in the overworld, right where you are.

Even if we're trapped having to relive someone else's story, there are cracks in this time-altered world. Like all the clocks that don't agree.

Perhaps one of these cracks will be large enough for Kris to escape Gaster's control?

Our actions do have a -slight- effect on the story. Perhaps if the rules can be bent, they can be broken?
