    Wasn't Moenbryda a MRD? Didn't she have an axe? I could swear.

    Minfilia's job was to be a waste of space.

    I know as Eikon-slayer there are always going to be plot points that are a little silly, but that thing with the old man's key...


    Spoiler: show
    I CAN DEFEAT GODS. why do I need to hunt down an old man's key from twenty years ago to bust down a rusty old grate???



    also, Estinien thoughts

    I never really liked him, but even I can admit that "stop by, blow up a giant cannon single-handedly, then leave without even bothering to take credit" is fairly badass

    She was injured, and spent the rest of the story recovering? They were pretty clear about that

    Y'shtola is laying on a bed for the entire expansion. Meanwhile, Old Ala Mhigan gets cut down at the same time and is immediately back up and running the Resistance, and girl gets cut down by other girl and is down for approximately 90 seconds.

    And just so we are comparing apples to apples: all three of them required the hardcast raise hoopla, so it's not like one had a split lip.

    I'm pretty sure Y'shtola realized that getting back up would involve being around Lyse, and she wasn't willing to put up with that nonsense.

    Seriously, every time Lyse opened her mouth, I wanted to go, "Quiet Lyse, the grown-ups are talking."

    I thought it was kind of silly that they were pushing Lyse hard as the leader of Ala Mhigo when Raubahn was the logical choice, but maybe he was staying with Ul'dah regardless?

    Well, it's not Raubahn because the Scions are like your adopted family. Or maybe your workmates? WoL doesn't have anyone they're really close to (that you don't make up for roleplay) besides the Scion crew. So they all need to have their development arcs and this was the one for Lyse. Alphinaud had his, Minfilia had hers and Y'shtola has had quite a bit of development as well with the Sharlayan stuff and the addition of Krile and Matoya.

    Still waiting for Thancred's. Getting brainjacked by an Ascian doesn't count. *frustrated arm-crossing* come onnnn SE

    I really thought when Raubahn handed over Tizona to Pipin that would mean he was leaving the Flames to oversee the restoration of Ala Mihgo proper. Raubahn's whole motivation was to finish what Illberd started I don't think anyone is buying Lyse as a political leader on the same level as an Aymeric.

    Lyse as leader of a new generation of Monks maybe. Much like her mirror Fordola was the leader of a Garlean squadron.

    now that you say that I'm angry that didn't happen. Partly because of it being appropriate, partly because I love Pipin and him running the Flames would be money

    Didn't he used to have two? He certainly doesn't need 'em both now. I don't recall them ever giving the 2nd one a name or history though.

    Alternatively, maybe that'll be a plot point in subsequent patches. Right before a major battle isn't really the time or place to be dealing with that, and doubly so since he didn't do it in person.

    It just seems silly to me that she is missing and/or presumed dead for... what, 7+ years? And then she pops up and says, spoiler sister spoiler spoiler and by the way I should be the leader of Ala Mhigo now. The Ala Mhigans should be like, who TF is this broad? Warrior of Light has more of a claim to rule Ala Mhigo than she does.
