Ya, who is that Ranger guy...
Maybe is part of Alexander? He could be a hallucination of Alexander that left his body. He could be a different part of his personality.
Does this make sense?
This is what I thought. That, and he has the scarf that Alexander wears- different colour, but there's a similar fashion sense. I wonder if he's projecting just like Shadrack does. He apparently knew a lot of dark arts.
I think it's got to be someone we know. Why cover his face if he's a stranger to us anyway? I wish I had played KQ8 now but that's the only one I haven't played. It should be someone who's displayed magic to us before?
One thought comes to mind:
Something a little more likely to me but less cool is:
Doubt if it's Edgar. Edgar doesn't have a clue what's going on, and he's been at the castle the whole time. Hope it's not Manannan cause frankly, he doesn't deserve a full redemption. Perhaps eventual sympathy, but not redemption. If he wants that, he should do it out in the open.
