@homo_dachi No, he explicitly did it to make it more exciting and because he was confident that his ultimate luck would prevail the odds. I recently watched the scene, I know this is correct.
@Fish2Write Wild got a happy ending by the end of Tears, Time never found Navi and ended his take dead and forgotten, his only solace is having passed his skills down to Twilight. How the hell does this make Wild the more tragic one??
