It occurred to me today in the middle of church.
The developers can’t ever finish the ambition content, at least for Heart’s Desire.
I said can’t, not won’t.
The reason for this is simple. My character’s Heart’s Desire is for all S----n Candles (Arthur, Beau, Cerise, Destin, ???, Forthigan, Gawain–, Gawain in particular.)
" 'round in a city, a hunger was broiling…,"
Now, those of us (myself not quite included, due to lack of dreams) who actively seek our destruction know that we "will never gain this candle", and if we did we "would lose your very head from your shoulders".
But this is a game that can do -anything-, presumably from granting true immortality (I don’t mean Neathy immortality, I mean take-an-axe-to-the-face-and-reverse-the-damage-in-front-of-them Baccano style) to giving Mr. Bagley his sanity back, to a sandwich (what? Maybe you’re just hungry at the time).
"…Lights were a-flutter, candles aflame…"
But if one was selfless/crazy enough, could you bring back Him in the Well?
My guess is that if you asked for the Name, you’d just die or be unable to keep it.
But Gawain’s Candle exists (maybe), because we need it for the Tattoo of the Name, etc.
"…Out through my door, I stumbled, I tumbled…"
Plus as a dire warning, but we’re used to those.
So, if I can wish for anything, why not wish for light? A cursed sickly light, but let there be light.
So that’s why I believe that we can’t get our heart’s desire.
"…Off to the darkness, to find out The Name"
