I'd call that an unusual understanding of philosophy, "striving for
something more, no matter the cost." And I'd think more of it as a reading
of the first chapters of Genesis if not for the business with the serpent.
"Ye shall not surely die," he says.
She's a model of curiosity and gullibility -- entirely human, of course, her
husband even being named "Human" -- but I wouldn't say a model of
philosophy, or the specific sort of nobility you suggest.
