Either way could have led to death, but it was either death by starvation and never making it to the top to save his warriors knowing you did your best to save them or die of food poisoning knowing you did what you could to live so you could save everyone.
This is my goat. He's taking pride in his power and his kingdom like a true king! This is why he's the BEST ancient cookie and the COOLEST ancient cookie in the game!!! STAN DARK CACAO COOKIE!!!!!!!!
Both took it too far, but only one achieved balance. Dark cacao stayed too close to his burdens Mystic flour removed herself from them so much that she can't care about anything Dark cacao achieved balance of both, where he doesn't depend on burdens, but still cares.
@@candicraveingcloude2822 honestly their parallesl are about wich of them decides to face their fears even when they lost all the meaning of their vollation(aka the resolutiom of them)mystic flour abandoned her journey to elingthment since she was interrupted by other cookies and felt insecure she could lose her status as a prophet,she lost her *resolution* and purpose and decided to make everyone lose it too since she lost hers,dark cacao however realized he is munch more than his burdens or anything else,he is dark cacao cookie himself,he never lost his resolution or his vollation towards his goals even when he seemingly lost everthing,thats why he achieved balance,he managed to ease his burdens by acknowledging they do not define him
The bestpart is experiencing apathy is probably what made him get here. He didn't lose his resolution until he was shown (//SPOILERS//) | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | That is kingdom would be fine if he died.IF he were to be forever lost in beast yeast, he'd neve rhave to be concerned about his kingdom because as shown by Flour Cookie (No mystic for you miss my coccoon), then he could crown his son as king and his son clearly understands how to save the kingdom and make it even better than it was before. (something shown later when he literally saved the entire kingdom using medicine's he hunted and found in the mountains). This means nothing is holding Dark Cacoa back. He's free, he no longer has to fear for his kingdom. His resolution can now be stronger than ever because he can lay back and relax knowing if anything happens, SOMEONE will save his kingdom. Flour Cookie set in motion her own defeat by revealing his burden wasn't even a burden anymore, it was a gift.
I mean if his fight against the beast showed him anything, it's the fact he raised his child the right way enough that when he falls Dark Choco will become thenext in line and protect the kingdom.Knowing this I don't see what reason they can't reconcile now. @@Moonstar43223
In all honesty, I cannot wait to see how the other Ancients will react to him now that his burden has lightened and can finally laugh, especially anticipating the looks on Pure Vanilla and Hollyberry's faces. Whether they'll be shocked, gladdened, or something else, I know it'll be great to watch.
As the proclaimed "Monarch we are proud to serve." He fights to the end even when defeat is certain. And even when he does lose he respects the opponent and learns from it. Truly the tale of a humble king.
His voice lines sound like if he went from being tough and pessimistic to firm and confident. The old Dark Cacao sounds mentally exhausted and gives the feeling that he's talking to himself, while the enlightened one sounds more calm and firm, and gives the feeling that he's speaking to us and when it feels like he's talking with himself he sounds happier than before.
From his victory voicelines alone you can see that his enlightenment comes from the fact he realizes that he's not alone, he has friends, loyal guards and family by his side to keep him company and aid him in battle, that he does not need to bear the burdens alone, these small things are alwaus a nice detail of care
As someone who's first Ancient was Dark Cacao, I'm so happy how his awakening has basically lessen the burdens and allowed him to enjoy life a little more whilst staying true to himself. He really deserves the Soul Jam more than Mystic Flour tbh.
But Golden Cheese and White Lily don't have any descendants. As for the known descendants of the other Ancients, Royalberry is an npc, Custard/Princess are Rare, and Tiger Lily,/Dark Choco are Epic. Unless Devsisters decides to ascend anything lower than the Ancient rarity, it probably won't happen.
_"Hmm... Are you really the Dark Cacao Cookie I used to know?"_ _"Is that a slight smile I see? What happened to, "I am sorry... I do not know how to laugh"?"_ -Golden Cheese's overworld dialog with Dark Cacao. Bet he's practically a stranger to Golden Cheese now!
It hasn't been a day and already I missed his old voicelines, if they make it so that we can change his costume, I hope they bring it back and just give us a free Legendary costume
I got him from the first 10 of the free cookie cutters they gave out for the Gacha of Fate …meanwhile I spend 30k crystals and can’t pull Peach Blossom 💀
@@meepmorp4317 Same but the opposite way, I got Peach Blossom in the first ×10 pull. He's the whole reason I got those cookie cutters for the Fate banner, and I still haven't got enough soulgems to awaken Dark Cacao 🥲
