...great I kind of townread that last Kraken post. All I need.
I will say the cliff thing 3SC did is making me paranoid considering there is a not insignificant chance stuff like that could in fact have an influence on the story of this game. It's a lot harder to come up with narrative reasons to make someone stay dead though.
...I now have a theory about 3SC which I don't want to state out loud rn. Actually wait no that's a lie I have two theories about 3SC, neither of which I want to state out loud.
And yeah, agreed no resistance to Merel is not exactly ideal but.
I just don't think anything we have so far is actually a strong argument against anyone.

Also: I trust Xihirli's ability to read AV and am hence not interested in killing the latter today.
