Here's a link to the ending, starting at the Church of Juno. I noticed that Juno began talking about someone, saying "We can distract him. We can see past him. Feint left when he strikes right. But his reach is so very long. His stamina unending. We cannot evade his grasp. Not forever." You can see this part of her speech starting at 2:15 in the above video.

My question is, who was it that she was talking about? Who was she making reference to? Have these questions already been answered? Do you think that this will be explained in the next game if it hasn't been already?

My first thought is that perhaps she was referencing another one of TWCB, say, Hades for example. He was the God of the underworld, and ruled over the dead. This seems to fit in with the rest of her speech, and her later speech about knowing what lied ahead, but not how to stop it. What do you folks think about all of this?

i always thought she was referring to time

[Poodle_of_Doom]

Why would she reference time with such words as he, him, and his? Why personify time, but not of the other concepts she pointed out?

dunno maybe cuz it was the only thing they had against them, the only thing they couldnt beat... Didnt Minvera say "time erodes us", maybe juno was just expanding on that

I think it was Juno who said that. But still, this seems like an over personification of something so simple.

ya sorry it was Juno

And she does mention time directly so i dunno why she would personify it... its a puzzler

but i just dont see it that she is talking about someone in particular

The Sun and it's ever long grasping arms are it's solar flares. She talking about the Sun. I'm just guessing.

Well, honestly it seems pretty obvious to me that she is talking about death, about how the TWCB couldn't keep from dying.

[GeneralTrumbo]

Juno could be referencing several things. She could be referencing:

-The sun.

-The top God-God himself.

-Time

and so many more things...

Have you never heard time being referred to as Old Father Time? I see no issue, seems more like you are over thinking it.

What actually stands out in that video which never really did to me before is near the start where Juno says, you are OUR last faulted hope.

We are their last hope? How can we help them? I thought they were meant to be trying to save us from destruction? The way she words it makes it sound like it's the other way round.
