I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old, the stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." "If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored."
what if she was a watcher/guardian.... who came into the real world... sought out and used anthony cooper over and over thru-out his life... once to concieve and bear john locke who is destined to return to the island that spawned him... the island with which he has a psychic link.... the guardians, knowing cooper was bad, and needing to course correct locke, gave cooper kidney failure... necessitating contact with john... making him think it is his idea.... and continuing to use him to control john until he fulfills his destiny to return to the island...
cooper was not the controller... he was controlled... locke was guided back to the island... every step of his life planned and watched over....
