So I get that every human is a descendent of the furtive pygmy, and that everyone has a piece of humanity, i.e. a piece of the Dark Soul inside them. That's presumably why everyone has the Dark Sign. And that this Dark Sign is why everyone has the undead curse. They can't die and eventually they go hollow.
The wiki says "Undead sacrifices would end for the duration of the age of fire and eventually begin again when your flames start to fade." However...
I still don't get what the Age of Dark is. Aside from gods dying etc., is it an age where the undead curse remains, where everyone is withering and dying? Or is the undead curse gone forever (only acting as an impetus for the Chosen Undead) and it is truly the "Age of Man"? Because on one hand, they make it sound like it's the time when humans rule over themselves, but it's difficult to see that being the Age of Man when everyone is still undead and everything's dying off.
I mean, saying that you "lifted the curse" when you reignite the Age of Fire almost implies that the curse remains during the Age of Dark. So is it the literal Age of Dark where everything is dying, or an Age of "Dark", as in Age of "Dark Souls", as in Age of "Man", and the curse is gone and humanity finally flourishes? Or is it suggesting that man has to rule while still undead cursed (though naming it Age of Man would imply that Man is doing well during said Age)?
TLDR: Age of Dark; is the undead curse still there? Is man flourishing or is it terrible times for humanity?
