Charles makes the parallel to their story to Orpheus and Eurydice and Charles might be Orpheus in regards to Edwin.

But Edwin isn't Eurydice at all.

We can see throughout that episode that Edwin is Sysiphus.

Too smart for his own good, managing to cheat death twice using his cunning alone (the only reason Charles could save him was his detailed plan).

We see the exact same punishment Sysiphus got for Simon. Doing the exact same task over and over being promised freedom when it's over.

With Edwin not understanding the depth of despair that punishment puts him in.

And just like Sysiphus he won't cheat death a third time.

Next time he ends up in Hell it's permanent.

Or it would be but the fact that we see at the end of the episode that Simon (Sysiphus) can be redeemed means that Edwin can as well.

He has to give up on all the anger, hatred that he still holds against everyone that has wronged him that only hurts him in the end.

Charles gives himself the role of Orpheus because when it come to Edwin he loves him so much he would go to hell for him and ultimately he loves him so much he will always turn around when Edwin is hurting.

We see again and again Charles making snap decisions that he thinks are for the best that end up terribly (possessing the witch, hitting the bell etc.)

So Edwin when it is all said and done will have to save himself by letting go of the grudge he still keeps about his death

genuinely love how Ultrakill blends catholic mythology and greek mythology. the base stock is Dante's inferno but sure the king who according to myth trapped his half-bull son in a shifting maze underneath his palace and sacrificed innocents to him is king of the lust layer. and he has the most compassion and morals out of anyone in the game. sysiphus, the guy cursed to push a boulder up a hill for eternity, started a war against heaven because he was bored of being the king of the greed layer. there's a ferryman who looks suspiciously like popular depictions of death and/or Charon in the wrath layer. said minotaur was created by hell and lives in the violence layer in a maze of hell's creation. why not.

I loved to learn as a child, but now I am afraid to. Now I have to get a good grade at picking out fruit in the store, so I might as well never eat a peach again. What if I get a bad grade?
