It occurred to me how huge the number 3 is in Lies of P... you have the trinity rooms... the game takes place over the course of 3 days (If I remember correctly)... Romeo is comprised of 3... The whole story of "The 3 brothers"... the world was founded on 3's: Craftsmen, Workshop workers, and Alchemists... You get 3 different menu screens...
So I really believe that even our beloved main character is a representative of 3: Mind, Body, and Spirit.
Mind: A mixture of Carlo and P Body: P Spirit: Carlo
While technically it wouldn't be 3, we can also think of "mind" as mixing two colors to create a new one. I just think I'm onto something here, in regards to the rule of 3's. I also think it's still accurate, saying he's comprised of these things.
Also with the true ending of the story being a theme of rebirth, it's also incredibly biblical in the sense that... "On the Third Day He Rose Again from the Dead", which only harkens back to the visual we get of having passed out in Sophia's arms, mirroring the saintess of mercy statue, the very statue that Camille, his mother and first to reawaken as a puppet with an ego, created in life before her passing.
Just very interesting and I adore the symbolism they placed around every corner of the game!!
