Game Appearances
Erebus is the collective human thoughts of death and despair. Erebus making contact with Nyx resulted in The Fall, which could bring about the end of all life. In Persona 3: The Answer, S.E.E.S. learns the protagonist used his life's essence to create the Great Seal. When Erebus appears attempting to break the Great Seal, Fuuka realizes it is not a shadow, but the mass of all of humanity's desire for death. The Great Seal prevents Erebus from contacting Nyx, which would result in The Fall and the end of the world.
Although S.E.E.S. defeats Erebus, they realize it cannot truly be destroyed until the heart of every person stops wishing for death. Together, they vow to keep moving forward and hopefully change society to ease the protagonist's burden.
