In DS1 the dark is most definitely meant to be seen as something to fear. Like, once you look in to it you realize that dark might not be bad but the game definitely wants you to think it’s scary what with the darkwraiths and new Londo being so horrifyingly designed as well as a bunch of items that literally describe like the 4 kings or lifedrain as evil. We don’t actually know it’s neutral until DS2 introduces the cycles.
Right, and you are given zero reason to think otherwise. All the proponents of the Age of Dark are evil monsters and a much less trustworthy talking snake. We only get an inkling towards it because the Age of Fire promoters are very morally dubious in their pursuit and did some fucky stuff.
So trapped in binary thought that when offered a not perfect shade of white character, she assumes that must mean the other side is meant to be the good one.
And as she offered zero mention of DS2, I assume she knows nothing of it and therefore is completely ignorant of its lore. And not willfully so like the rest of us.
