*** MAJOR STORY SPOILERS ***

Hello, just finished DD for the first time. After watching the cutscene, I have a question. In the cutscene, when Arhu the cat and Zandalor are watching me come out of the entrance to the Black Dungeon with the baby, what the hell was it that falls from the sky? It looks like a statue?

Also, I think I missed where the hell that baby came from lol?

Any and all explanations are welcome. Thanks!

CFM: It looks like a statue?
It is the statue from the beginning of the game, when you opened the Aleroth catacombs.

When you interrupted the Demon of Lies, he was performing a ritual to infuse part of the Lord of Chaos into the baby.


One of the artists posted in the old Larian forum:

*sigh*
I would have never thought that the language of pure image is so hard to understand. We have to think about that in the future...

MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!

Ascension "Blessing" cutscene
After you got sacrificed by the council of seven your spirit awakes in a divine realms on an altar. Around you the ideas of the seven gods are manifesting. You can roughly separate impish, human, elven or orcish gods...
Everyone of them grabs into their chest and puts a small part of the heart into your weightless shape. After you received all blessing the :div: in you is fully developed and so her wings grow and she flies up to the mortal plane where she descends as the reborn hero into the wastelands.

Extro scene
You see the demon of lies dying. In fact you see the mutiliated body of janus ripped into pieces and the leftover, the sword of lies, remains. It comes closer and tries to seduce the hero. The hero is tempted to take it but refuses and sends it back to hell away from the mortal plane.
Then the hero hears the cries of the baby. Knowing that it is the lord of chaos inside the child he/she draws the dagger to kill it. In the hero's moral struggle to kill a neborn innocent child the scene fades out.
Much later you see the hero walk out victorious into the swamp area. He carries something. Loot? The child? You don't know for sure...
Somewhere on a distant hill Arhu and Zandalor watch you coming when suddenly the statue you lifted up in the sky while entering the katacombs of aleroth comes down finally...(side joke, nothing more)

Whelp, that explains a lot, thanks!

I'm trying to remember the statue in Aleroth being lifted up to the sky... but the beginning of the game seems so long ago, it kinda rings a bell lol.

At the very end, I really thought the hero was carrying a baby... but it was meant to be ambiguous, I'll have to watch it again. (I assume the next game in the series answers that.)

I was just surprised to learn that it was ambiguous (what he was carrying). I never thought it was anything other then the baby.

It would be quick to redo in a new game, after skipping through Joram's dialogue and the cutscene with Mardaneus and Lanilor.
