If you look at Belos' presented backstory, and the subtext, with practical and objective views instead of seeing anything he does as a sign of bigotry, it's clear Belos is a cautionary tale of conformity and abandonment issues.I believe Caleb is a parallel to Luz in that they both never belonged in the human realm and fit in more as "weirdos" in the demon realm.The human realm didn't take kindly to individualism for "weirdos" ESPECIALLY in the 1600's.However, unlike Luz, Caleb felt tied down because he had to look after Philip.Caleb was likely forced into the role of a guardian because of their parents dying, and never got to be himself, which made Philip dependent on him. Once they were both adults, and had met Evelyn, Caleb likely finally felt an escape to a world where he could actually be himself, instead of conform to a society that snuffs out individualism for the sake of his younger brother.He likely though Philip was old enough to look after himself, or, there was a problem that prevented him from coming back to Earth.Either way, Philip thought Evelyn kidnapped his older brother that looked after him for years, and thought he should finally return the favour by saving him.Unfortunately, Caleb wasn't a damsel in distress that got hexed by an evil witch.He was a man that fell in love and found a chance to be himself.He willingly left Philip, which is something Philip couldn't cope with.Just like how he rewrites history, and rewrites his identity, I think Belos re-wrote his own perception of reality in his own mind, essentially manipulating himself as a coping mechanism.Caleb didn't "leave" him, he was under her spell.He didn't "kill" him, he saved his soul.Pretty much all of Belos' character is rewriting things in his own head, and actually, physically rewriting things as an unreliable narrator.Both in his Diary and in BI History.I believe Phillip is simply a product of conformity. He would rather his brother NOT be himself, and continue to be his parental figure in a society that hates weirdos.And killed him once he realised he isn't that ideal version of his brother in his head.And that Caleb had his own dreams that deviated from Philips need to feel comforted.Very dark and heavy, yes. But honestly, I believe that's why TOH was cancelled.Disney said it was because it didn't "fit the theme" the company wanted to represent.Disney has had dark villains before (see: Frollo) but 99% of those villains were unrealistically evil, as Frollo was also re-written to be more cartoonishly evil than from the original Notre Dame narrative, which makes Frollo more sympathetic.It's likely that Belos didn't fit the cookie cutter idea of evil that disney wants to portray in their content.Which is why we got such a rushed ending with minimal elaboration on Belos' backstory.Belos being an evil Witch Hunter that kills witches simply because is more cookie-cutter villain than a clearly emotionally dependant man with abandonment issues that refused to return home without his brother, or a version of his brother that does what he says willingly and has no needs or desires or identity of his own, because even insinuating that is a betrayal or sign of abandonment in his eyes.I believe we lost a lot of potential in Belos' backstory and all of this was lost entirely because of Disney and instead we got a very rushed version that is very confusing for viewers that aren't a part of the fandom's discussions.What do you think?Do you think there's another reason TOH Got cancelled? Do you think my interpretation of Belos/Philip is wrong? Or do you agree?
