What I Posit On Limbus Company Story Structuring and the Mirroring of Dante's Divine Comedy (Part 2) [Spoilers]

As Canto 8 has been released I can safely assume it and everything past it mirrors Dante's Divine Comedy, as there has been a noticeable shift in the endings from Canto 7 to Canto 8, as the ending is less of a big great peak finish as in Canto 7, to a fine contentness in Canto 8.

How Limbus Company Mirrors Dante's Divine Comedy/Classical Literature II; The Outcast/The Metamorphosis

The Outcast and The Metamorphosis. In The Metamorphosis, Gregor Samsa was a lieutenant in the army, like how Limbus Gregor fought for G Corp in the Smoke War. One noticeable motif in The Outcast is apples, as Gregor's bug arm was trained to kill by slicing apples, and because of the False Apple that caused the demise of the beloved Yuri :(. In The Metamorphosis, Gregor's father threw apples at him, one of which severely damaged him and got stuck in his carapace.

How Limbus Company Mirrors Dante's Divine Comedy/Classical Literature I; Selva Obscura

Limbus Company's Prologue/Selva Obscura noticeably mirrors Canto I of Inferno, when Dante Alighieri (Mirrored by Dante) is lost in the Dark Wood of Error (Mirrored by The Dark Forest) and encounters the Leopard of Malice and Fraud, the Lion of Violence and Ambition, and the She-Wolf of Incontinence (Mirrored by Panther, Lion, and Wolf) but is then saved by the Poet Virgil (Mirrored by the Red Gaze Vergilius)

What I Posit On Limbus Company Story Structuring and the Mirroring of Dante's Divine Comedy

The Prologue/Selva Obscura through Canto II/The Unloving mirror Dante's Inferno, due to Selva Obscura sharing similarities to Canto I of Dante's Inferno, in which he is lost in the Dark Wood of Error, and The Unloving with the last Cantos of Inferno where Dante travels through the Ninth Circle Cocytus with The Unloving's icy theme and Cocytus' freezing punishment.

Canto III/The Unconfronting through Canto VII or Canto VIII/The Dream Ending or The Surrendered Witnessing mirror Dante's Purgatorio as, in The Unconfronting, Sinclair climbs the mountain of bodies, like how Dante climbs Purgatory. The reason for my uncertainty of the end of mirrored purgatory is that The Dream Ending mentions the River of Memory, Lethe, but in Purgatorio, Lethe is not the end, as we still have the Earthly Paradise.
