## History

As Oswald’s partner in business, and the more wealthy of the two. Lennox was the only thing keeping Hathaway Sanctuary from shutting entirely, along with its counterpart HEX Technologies. Oswald’s character grew mostly off of his need to save Collin and his conflicting trust of Lennox, which is clearly broken when Lennox tells him he’s being locked up. Lennox is the more morally corrupt of the two, which is a huge part of why Oswald became what he is. His path first affected Oswald when Lennox killed Nurse Kennedy, who had discovered the presence and what it could do. Lennox—who had already began to detach from his former self, as the medication given to him for exposure to the presence began to affect the way he thinks—began to see the nurse as an exposure liability and didn’t hesitate to point a Luger between her eyes, leaving Oswald as the only witness to the first crime we’ve seen Lennox commit. He stares at the body for a minute as everything is silent except the ringing of the shot. He pulls out a cigar and lights it, takes 3 puffs and finally turns to face Oswald.

> Stray from the path if it’s for a greater good, evil never prevails. What’s gotta be done is done, never let anything stop you from making the world better. We lose our innocence, but that a small price we pay for the greater good. Don’t you ever forget that, Oz… never speak of this to anyone, I strongly suggest it… also do me a favor and call 911.

He finishes his cigarette and drop it on the floor as the gasoline lights on the corpse, and he heads outdoors leaving a frozen Oswald behind. Lennox never had to worry about Oswald telling anyone because Oswald himself had forgotten it until his snapping point, completely blanking the memory from his head. It’s unknown whether Lennox killed others, however the preparation of Kennedy’s extermination certainly points toward it not being the first time Len’s had to make someone “disappear”. However, it’s obvious that Lennox was attempting to kill Oswald in Tape #10, during which tries to brainwash Oswald and lull him into approaching the TV to “Join them, they’re all waiting for you.” However this does not go how he intended. It does lead to Oswald entering purgatory, but also leads to entity L70 escaping. L70 and Oswald swap places after Oz promised to trust him, and after L70 stands up is introduced as “Limol Lwohl”, a priest, Lennox finally gives up and accepts fate (ultimately his peak in character development). However, this is irrelevant since Limol’s forgiveness only come as the death in open embrace. Limol mockingly stretches out his arms as if offering Lennox as hug, which lures Lennox into moving forward as Limol steps aside and grabbing his head. Limol slowly presses his thumbs into Lennox’s eyes, and ultimately fractures his skull, killing him. In his dying moments, both Limol and Oswald in purgatory tell Lennox that they will never stray from their own path again. Limol kills the Sanctuary guards after Lennox is finally gone and takes his place as Leader and new Priest of the Cult.
