Mono now sits in the tower trapped within this dream like state, waiting for someone to free him.ģ.despite the thin man and mono being revealed to be one and the same, the thin man was no longer the same caring boy he once was. Throughout the game it is noted how there are constant references to chairs and just how much they are hated. In the school, we see chairs with pictures of dogs urinating on them, while other chairs are locked away in secret rooms in order to prevent mono from finding them, possibly implying to us that mono dreams of his hatred and regret for sitting on the chair. The thin man he sees in this dream is actually the manifestation of his greatest fears brought to life by the eye entity. In his dream, mono thinks about everything that lead up to him sitting on the chair, however, due to his desire to end the signal, the boy also dreams about warning or even stopping himself from reaching the tower.
The tower has used its hypnotic spell to leave monos mind in a dream like state in order to prevent him from fighting back. Once he is near the end of his life, the thin man is forced to reappear outside the tower in his younger age in order to be used by the eye entity all over again.Ģ.mono is being kept in a dream loop, not a time loop. However, due to the fact that time and space are messed up within the tower, Mono only grows old once he is trapped within the towers walls. This fate forced mono to relive his life in an endless loop in order to be salvaged by the tower and have his power always available for the tower to use. Mono might have already stopped the signal long before ever meeting six, unfortunately, despite his victory, the tower had tricked him by trapping him within its walls and turning him into the new signal provider. Once mono had obtained the powers of the thin man, the tower called to him. The thin man was a different person who was used by the tower until mono appeared and defeated him. There are many ideas on how it is that this loop is occurring, here is what the community has come up with so far:ġ. Now, whether mono has always been the thin man or if mono is simply taking the place of the old thin man is still debated on, however, what many do seem to agree on is that the tower has used the thin mans powers to salvage his life and keep him in an endless time loop. Near the end of little nightmares 2, it is revealed that mono has become the thin man and has essential restored the tower to its functioning state as his power is used by the eye/tower to once again send out its transmission to expose the world to its hypnotic spell. What is going on with the time loop occurring in the pale city?
