Completely agree. The Nightwatcher is so much more complex than a boon/bane vending machine. She's a storming splinter of Cultivation! In my opinion, everybody who goes to the Nightwatcher becomes a part of Cultivation's plan. Lift, for example, is bonded to Wyndle who is litterally a cultivationspren! Some however, are affected more than others. Mr T has been completely used by Cultivation, to the point where I am not sure if he is really is own person anymore.
