In episode 4, Dark lantern's light goes out but noting happened to beast?

Wirt and greg go to woods to save beatrice. And, they meet woodsman there. Wirt thinks that he, holding a lantern, is the "beast" that the tavern people said. So he kicked the lantern from the woodman's hand, and the lantern fell on the ground and the light went out. The light seems to be related to the beast's life. But in the next scene, even though the light was once turned off, he talks casually to the woodsman who lit the lantern again. Obviously, in the last episode, when the woodsman extinguished the lantern, he screamed and faced the end (maybe? Although his exact life and death are unknown.) But it's a little strange that nothing happened in episode 4. What's the reason? Is it a set-up conflict? hmm... well, this is just my opinion, when the lantern fell to the ground, there was still a spark left, so he almost died, but he survived. Since the nearby edelwood caught fire and burned, there is a possibility that there was still a spark in the lantern. I really like this animation and have watched it many times, but I still wondered about this part, so I posted it here. If there's something I don't know or have any other guesses, please leave a comment. I'll appreciate your participation.

Possible plot hole with the Woodsman?

I love the final moments where the Woodsman realized where the trees come from, but its always been slightly undercut for me by the following exchange from episode 7: Woodsman to the Children: <dl><dd>THE BEAST KNOWS YOUR PRESENCE! </dd><dd>READY TO CLAIM YOU AS PART OF </dd><dd>HIS DARK FOREST, BUT ONLY IF YOU </dd><dd>GIVE UP! </dd><dd>KEEP HEARTY IN BOTH BODY AND </dd><dd>SPIRIT AND YOU SHALL BE SAFE </dd><dd>FROM HIM. </dd><dd>FALL ILL OR LOSE HOPE AND YOUR </dd><dd>LIFE SHALL PASS INTO HIS CROOKED </dd><dd>HANDS. </dd><dd>UGH! CHILDREN! </dd><dd>PLEASE, HEED MY WARNING! </dd><dd>BOYS, BEWARE THE BEAST! </dd></dl>Later, with the beast: <dl><dd>Beast: YES. YES. </dd><dd>ALL HOPE WILL SOON BE LOST. </dd><dd>WE'RE LUCKY THE BOY HAD THE </dd><dd>PLUCK TO BEST YOU. </dd><dd>YOUR PLAY COULD HAVE COST US </dd><dd>BOTH. </dd><dd>DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT KEEPING THE </dd><dd>LANTERN LIT? </dd><dd>DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR </dd><dd>DAUGHTER'S SOUL? </dd><dd>Woodsman: ONE CANNOT TRADE THE SOULS OF </dd><dd>CHILDREN AS IF THEY WERE TOKENS! </dd><dd>THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER WAY. </dd><dd>Beast: NO. THERE IS ONLY ME. </dd><dd>THERE IS ONLY MY WAY. </dd><dd>THERE IS ONLY THE FOREST, AND </dd><dd>THERE IS ONLY SURRENDER. </dd></dl>How can he truly claim he didn't know in the final episode when this kind of stuff is going on between the two? I'd love it if there was something I was overlooking here that could keep the Woodsman in the dark, if you have ideas I'd really appreciate them!
