This chapter, for example, led me to believe he was doing good at some point of his life.

Um, his "good" deed consisted of attempting to set up a fake ultimate hero and getting really pissed of when people didn't fall for it.

We don't actually know that yet. It's only a popular fan theory.

Velorien should not be downvoted. He asked himself the fundamental question of rationality:

What do I think I know and how do I think I know it?

and the fact of the matter is, we don't know that that's true, it is a falsifiable theory with supporting evidence and multiple proponents but we don't know yet.

Upvoted.
