Very excited about The Darkness, because this is my theory:
It’s Chaos.
In Paradise Lost (which the writers seem to base a lot of their biblical characters off of i.e. Lucifer, God, Uriel, Gabriel, Abdiel, Michael), Lucifer has to essentially swim through this non-space space that is Chaos’s realm and therefore referred to as Chaos. It’s essentially this evil, dark-matter-esque aether, and it kind of cushions the proverbial space between Hell and Earth. Even the Morningstar is really hesitant about having to swim through it.
I think that that is what Carver is getting at with The Darkness. Which, to me, is really exciting… In Paradise Lost, Chaos is personified as the King of his Realm, so maybe we’re going to see a really big player in the Fall? Someone to whom MOTW and witches like Rowena are literally nothing.
