Does anyone else think about how Oliver Banks was Lonely? He was so afraid of the death that followed him that he risked everything to sail as far away from life and humanity as possible, which is awfully reminiscent of Peter Lucas.
But the thing is, even when he wasn’t heading to Point Nemo, he was still isolated. He would be just as alone in a bustling city as he would be in the middle of the ocean. Because even as he walks amongst others, he is still surrounded by only the dead.
He cannot get close to other people because he can’t see them as people, only as the corpses they will one day become. And that may be one of the Loneliest fates of all.
