A small gripe with Death's Dance

Hey guys, I'd like to preface with a preemptive apology; I'm sorry if this is the wrong board.

Now on to Death's Dance, or more specifically the de-buff's tooltip. When your damaged it says something to the effect of "Death always takes his due." and after reading that while playing Kindred I started thinking.

Doesn't Kindred represent Death in the LoL world? Their lore does say that they are known to many cultures across Runeterra as dual personalities, so shouldn't the tooltip read; "Death always takes their due"?

It's a small thing I know, but one I noticed.

That is a good point to bring up, and it's definitely not a good counterpoint on my end, but I think it could go either way with the tooltip description, for this reason; Kindred's Story tells of a man who everyone must meet (themselves as Death), who split himself in two. Perhaps some groups, particularly the one that made Death's Dance, still venerates Death as himself, rather than the Kindred.

I always assumed Kindred was more an aspect of death rather than death itself.
