HPS? Happy Pask Salesman? not the point.

You can't rightly call his behavior demonic. People always resort to having the HMS as the villain, but no one can truly explain why. The biggest motivating factory is his face when angered. This theory states that souls are stuck in the masks, but how many souls were truly trapped? I'll give you a hint, the number follows the games underlying theme. The rest of the masks you get are different, and only once do you play the song of healing for them. When you play it, someone's soul is actually freed, rather than captured, by the mask that is produced. Finally, Sharp, one of the composer bros. is literally just a wandering demonic soul. Why could his soul not be captured by the song of healing when it captured something as powerful as the fierce diety? These points cause great instability in this theory, but do not entirely disprove it.

I am thinking this through as I go along, trust me. Also, if you look at the manga, which I know doesn't really count, Link does wear the fierce diety mask near the HMS, and even destroys most of his masks with a single swing of his sword.
