So the plot of the Toba the tura animatic is that Radiance drives Pale King into giving into his void poisoning by hounding him in his dreams with the whole guilt of killing his children and sacrificing the Vessel for a Kingdom he couldn't even protect? I am sorry, I am just not very good at interpreting things.

yeah, essentially! and some extra tidbits, the radiance he sees towards the end in the abyss isn't actually her (and neither is he actually in the abyss, hes dreaming, and also because it wouldn't make sense as to how she made it into the white palace dream... i hope that was communicated well) its more like, the void manifesting as his fears to fuck with him (it was actually going to be the radiance morphing into THK in the abyss but i was getting very fatigued at that point LMAO) as it infiltrates the dream from the real world. thats what i was going for at least! and also the radiance that appears at the beginning to show infected THK is supposed to be his foresight (not sure if the actual radiance could appear in his foresight but it sounded like a fun idea so i went with it), since it's implied ingame that PK may have known that his plan would fail ("Pale Wyrm…What good to foresee a demise unavoidable?") just a nice extra layer of angst, its also why he looks so miserable throughout the entire animatic lmao
