Oh god, that ending. Time for the brutal cliffhangers again.

I truly hope it is not what I think it is, but I'm afraid it is exactly what I think it is...

Things are quite getting quite tense and serious. Sure, they have been serious before, but there was more hope than there is now. And it was rather slow-paced. But barely any rest this volume. 

And then the 4-koma bonus chapters at the end were so lighthearted... Really? After that cliffhanger?? TwT

Also, new theory: 

I have the feeling that the "god of light" might actually be playing against the humans. Yes, he is brainwashing them into thinking the dark children are bad and all, but maybe that was the best way he could think of, to make sure to curse them all? Look it truly is the perfect plan: 
- make them think the curse is bad, so they grow a very intense fear of it.
- so much, so they will do anything to find a cure. Even murdering their own people.
- but what if the sacrifice of Shiva isn't going to lift the curse at all? What if it's only gonna make it worse?
If that will be it, I don't mind anymore if the "god of light" turns out to be the good guy. As long as the dark children win, I don't mind who else is on the winning side.
