Context explain : _that scenario of Talim revived his son was actually a Filipino thing. But In the Filipino culture, seeing your loved one as they would visit you (it means he or she might fetch you) then mentioning his/her name before dying is actually a thing though. (PS. I wanted to explain this in Filipino but I wanted to translate it in English, but I ran out of my English though, sorry)_
I do not consider Algol as a villain, but rather someone who created the swords with the intention of looking for someone worthy of using them and he himself recognized the error in having created the Soul Edge and created the Soul Calibur as a way of forgiveness, his son possessed by that sword would have killed many if he hadn't done the worst to him, deep down he was a father who had to make a difficult choice about his son who killed the ministers and his wife and he would be next.
