Divided Soul – World of Warcraft Machinima -
Kareth and Sarlek have known each other from childhood, always standing together. However, as time passes by, the inevitable clash between strength and weakness will decide their common faith. This is what I consider my first real machinima since Tales of the Past III; it was very enjoyable to make, especially being able to focus on just two voiceactors (Matt Greenburg and Jesse Cox) made it alot of fun. This time around I also worked on getting a bit of a “double-plot” going, I tried making a machinima that would have alot of re-watchability-value, which is also why some things may not make sense when watching for the first time. I’d like to thank the voiceactors for their patience and the composers, Nathan Allen Pinard and Scott Buckley, for letting me use their music. I’d also like to thank Siavash M for composing a small part of the music with me, was great fun!

Okay so they’re the same person and karleth calls upon sarlek to help him in fights/battles so he is having an internal conflict at the end of the video and he killed himself so sarlek didnt corrupt his family because he was hurting his wife and child? But i think that at the end when sarlek mentioned something about being pathetic that when keisha mentioned to rein to stop crying that he was pathetic maybe its happening all over again. O.o

pethetic…why make something like this

They are both the same guy. Sarlek represents Kareths inner fighter and ruthlessness. This of himself always appeared when he was angry and in battle.
In the end he kills himself so the Sarlek side of him doesnt take over his family and turn his son into a ruthless fighter.

For those who want to know the story This may be wrong but its how i see it. They are both the same person. Sarlek is the more ruthless and battle hungry side as Kareth is the gentle side. The Sarlek side always came out when Kareth was in trouble (as a kid being picked on and in battle agaisnt the big worm). He kills himself so the Sarlek side of him doesnt take over his family and turn his son into a ruthless fighter.
(This may be wrong)

This is what I interpereted from this:
Kareth is a weaking, but has -another personality- within him, which is Sarlek. When Kareth kills himself, Sarlek must die because they’re the same person.

sarlek and kareth are the same person. he had dual personalities. sarlek would be the tough part of him and kareth was the kind side. in the end rein has the same thing, and his other side tells him to stop crying.

I think Sarlek and Kareth was the same soul within two body.They have different body and personnality wich would explain why Sarlek died too when Kareth Hara-kred himself.
