I think the turning into Dust was simply one of Gold's Spells as well.

Still weird that to destroy the darkness, you have to do what basically transforms you into the DO and which has happened alot of times before... and then they do it another way... and this transforms into a DO then. It is. Depends on what they go with. The fake dagger would have to be bound to him because how else would he get the power and a dagger with the Darkness on it. It's not a wand, lol. So, if the Darkness is in him and his soul is bound to the fake dagger, then he put himself back into a circle.

It probably turned to duct for dramatic reasons, but the Darkenss went to the whole sword and not just the dagger, so........

Yeah, you have to kill the dark entity to destroy the Darkness, unless you control it and have can overcome the distractions.
