So I was researching the singlebrooke video… And I think dr Whale could be an actual god…like King Triton o. Hercules… He says they will get a single carnation. A carnation is known as Dianthus caryophyllus here is where the name comes from:
Carnations were mentioned in Greek literature 2,000 years ago. “Dianthus” was coined by Greek botanist Theophrastus, and is derived from the Greek words for divine (“dios”) and flower (“anthos”).[19] Some scholars believe that the name “carnation” comes from “coronation” or “corone” (flower garlands), as it was one of the flowers used in Greek ceremonial crowns. Others think the name stems from the Latin “caro” (genitive “carnis”) (flesh), which refers to the original colour of the flower, or incarnatio (incarnation), which refers to the incarnation of God made flesh.
The God complex note seems to line up with this… I think everyone thinking its Frankenstein makes it not Frankenstein…. And him telling Charmkng “you’re not my prince” could mean he isn’t ruled by anyone…because he’s above that.
And triton fits because he’s the son of Poseidon (god) and a king
Just something I was thinking!
