There’s also an entry in the Books of Sorrow where the Winnower possesses an Ogre gifted by Oryx and explains to him what it is. It uses this similar way of talking to Oryx even telling him to “sit down and relax”.
The Darkness/Winnower is definitely presenting a friendly nature to those it likes, but in the end, this doesn’t mean it’s a homie. A liar smiles twice as wide as an honest man.
