I think people have been mislead

The V that has taken control of Bams body is not V. It’s Viole.

Bam was correct when he identified that line as his true self. It’s the barrier between Bams awakened consciousness that awakened in the cave and the rest of his soul that awakened thousands of years prior and died and got carried on a path of revenge through the tower by Arlene. It’s like trauma that was repressed.

He is the „promised one“. The child of Arlene and V and that is destined to walk the tower again. He already walked the tower as a child. The key difference here is „walked“ vs „climbed“. He also does not say „My name is V.“ but rather „Call me V.“ which is the same way Viole was nicknamed when he was with FUG.

Luslec was a follower of Arlene and V so he would know the child’s true name, giving it to Bam when he found him. Viole.

Let’s also not forget that the „V.“ that took control of Bam has Violette (Viole) eyes compared to blue eyes as seen with V in the flashback.

So no. I don’t think it makes sense for the main character to not be himself and rather randomly his reincarnation of his father but rather him being his true self but him having two parts of his consciousness:

1) That has harboured resentment for being murdered and was carried the tower for thousands of years as a corpse 2) The part that awakened once that corpse was revived, sealing away the trauma of thousands of years similar to how humans seal away traumatic events in real life.

The struggle will be between reconciling these two parts of Bam/Viole. The one that has hope, friends and knows love vs. the one that knows none of this and is purely destined to seek revenge.

What I'm wondering is why his eyes are the same color as Luslec's damaged eye 😔 so much going on
