So in the end of the game Thaos was defeated, truth about the gods revealed, etc etc, but I must've missed something.

 

Specifically, what does the biawac have anything to do with ruins and Thaos? Didn't he caused the biawac that awoken you to being a watcher? Why did he do that?

 

So I thought one of the goals is to return the PC back to normal. Seems like there wasn't really an option to do that?

The device woke you by causing the second biawac. The first was probably caused by the first guy (just an ashen statue by the time you arrive).

So it was just an accident that you became Awaken to a Watcher that had such a strong history tie to Thaos?

 

Again, what does the biawac have to do with anything in the story? Why did Thaos trigger the biawac in the first place? It's not like it can be tied to animacy...

1. Yes, it's just a random accident that it was you.

2. The biawac was caused by animancy. They never really explain it, but something about the machine Thaos used (which is an ancient form of animancy) triggers a biawac.

Who says it was a random accident? It could have all been orchestrated by Eothas without you knowing.

Eothas has been dead for like 10 years by the start of the game.

The stories of his death have been greatly exaggerated.

It feels like an accident that you survived the biawac and became a watcher.  That's probably the weakest part of the beginning in that they just glance over that and push forward.

That's because it is an accident that you survive the biawac and became a Watcher.

and the biawac was caused by thaos, the 1st one by one of his servants, and the 2nd one by himself
