And My CULT OF THE GOAT headcanon!

#cultofthelamb #cotl

CULT OF THE GOAT
An unfamiliar tension loomed between the two. Shamura had issued commands to the Bishops to seal Narinder away, waiting only for the perfect moment to strike. However, unlike in the world of the Lamb, in this realm, Narinder had foreseen the scheme. Thus, he turned the tables and proceeded to slaughter the Bishops. Yet, Narinder did not grant the Bishops “Rest.” Consequently, the Bishops became trapped in Purgatory, suspended in a state neither dead nor alive. Though they could occasionally commune with the mortal realm through their statues remaining in ancient temples, the lands bereft of their rule soon lost all order and crumbled away. Meanwhile, Narinder’s minions were eradicating the remnants of the Old Faith. Ultimately, the Bishops were cast aside, left to wallow in endless despair and agony.
Then one day, the last remaining “Goat” of the Old Faith lands was offered as a sacrifice, and Narinder’s minions swiftly claimed its life. However, there is one fact we must not overlook. Narinder, having become the One True God, was forced to govern the death and resurrection of countless followers simultaneously. Amidst that infinite flow of life, his gaze faltered for a mere instant, and thus, the Goat plummeted into Purgatory.
There, in the abyss, the Goat encountered the Bishops whom its ancestors once served—now twisted into wretched forms. Shamura recounted the events that had transpired and implored the Goat.

The Goat, having met an unjust end due to Narinder, accepted the proposal. In return, Shamura bestowed upon the Goat the Purple Crown, imbued with the power of knowledge and war. Indeed, the Goat was the “single mistake” of Narinder, the One True God. Yet, he could never have foreseen that this mi or oversight would one day grow into a cataclysmic calamity that would threaten his very existence.

Gameplay Progression
-Because the Goat is an imperfect entity severed from the natural flow of death, the moment its physical form collapses in battle, the Order of Death seeks to realign the twisted soul. To do so, it drags the Goat into the most stable realm available: the world of the Lamb. There, the Goat’s soul reclaims its form before being cast back to its original reality.

-Since the Goat exists only because Narinder failed to grant it eternal rest, the One Waits will eventually perceive this oversight as the story unfolds. He will deliberately dispatch his followers to drag the Goat before his throne. The Goat must either evade capture or slaughter these pursuers to survive.

The Goat’s True Heart
Originally, the Goat forged a pact with Shamura driven solely by a thirst for vengeance against Narinder. However, during its time with the Bishops, the Goat witnessed Shamura’s profound vulnerability. Despite being cruelly imprisoned by Narinder, Shamura never bore a grudge against him; instead, they carried a heavy burden of guilt, believing the fault lay entirely with themselves. This sight stirred a fierce desire within the Goat to protect them—a feeling that, at some point, may have twisted into a form of love.
Furthermore, reuniting with Shamura in the world of the Lamb triggered a desperate need to compensate for the world the Goat had already lost. The craving—”I will not lose this being again”—eventually festered into obsession and warped affection. There is a crucial truth here that cannot be ignored. The Goat is an entity denied rest by Narinder’s error, never having faced true death like the Bishops. Thus, it remains a “Wandering Soul,” capable of traversing between Purgatory and the mortal plane. Deep in its subconscious, the Goat surely knows: the moment Narinder is defeted, both it and the Bishops will be liberated—fading into eternal rest. Therefore, while outwardly displaying a vengeful drive to strike Narinder down, a conflicting truth lies hidden within: “I do not want to fade away,” and “I want to stay by Shamura’s side.”

The Goat and Shamura
Goat→Shamura: The Goat seeks to protect Shamura at all costs. Since Shamura and the other Bishops have already perished in its own world, the Goat is fiercely protective of the Shamura it encounters in he world of the Lamb. In particular, knowing the depth of Narinder’s cruelty, the Goat remainsperpetually vigilant against him.
Shamura→Goat: Shamura is aware that the Goat travels to and from another world, yet harbors no special affection for it. Occasionally, in moments of lucidity, Shamura may ask questions about the world the Goat inhabits, but there is nothing more between them.

References & Summary for the Goat’s Worldbuilding
-“Those vanquished in this life shall triumph in the next.” One of the Tarot cards obtainable as an unlock condition for the Goat, “The Renegade’s Victory,” seems to imply that in the Goat’s world, Narinder was the ultimate victor.

-The statue of the Goat is sculpted with its abdomen sliced open and ribs exposed, creating a distinct impression that, unlike the Lamb, the Goat met its end by being disemboweled.

-A Reddit Q&A also confirmed that the Goat harbors hatred toward Narinder. Furthermore, it is notable that official social media posts and merchandise frequently depict the Goat alongside Shamura.

-In the world of the Lamb, the Mystic Seller, who appears after Narinder is defeated, points out that the deceased Bishops have still not found peace. He commands the new God of Death to guide them to a true, complete death. Additionally, ancient tablets describe Narinder as “He that lays a soul to rest.”

Synthesizing this information, it is likely that Narinder was originally a deity charged with guiding souls to their rest. However, his power became corrupted. To inflict eternal suffering upon the Bishops who failed to stop him, he intentionally withheld their “rest.” Subsequently, Narinder launched a purge to erase all traces of the Bishops, and the Goat was likely disemboweled by his followers during this slaughter. However, in the Goat’s case, it was Narinder’s mistake—not his intent that denied it rest. Consequently, like the Bishops, the Goat fell into Purgatory in a state of incomplete death. My current hypothesis is that it was there, in Purgatory, that the Goat encountered Shamura and forged their pact.

When looking at Narinder's dialogue after cleansing all the Bishops' relics, there is a sense of cynicism, as if he has transcended hatred. However, I believe that beneath that cold exterior lies his true hidden feeling: forgiveness toward the Bishops. - (1/8)
