Cant we all hold hands, return to the pre-amaurot cut scene where Emet selch tells us we all suck and hes going to wipe us out, and alphi shouts back "No, U!" And then we go knock some heads!? Honestly, the last few pages have kind of veered into the weeds a bit. To be fair, it feels like this is an extended cutscene of that moment. But instead of going to fight, aphi and emet conjure in a table and chairs and proceed to argue for weeks about the various merits and demerits of their position whilst the wol sits their twiddling their axe in general impatience.
In the end its still gonna come down to the same thing: My continued existence versus your continued existence; or my cultural ideology versus your culture ideology. Theyre all at war. So it goes.
Sorry, i know im jumping in and missing the nuance, but i really think you've gotten into the weeds. I know there was an actual discussion going on a while back that led us here, but i cant for the life of me remember what it was about.
Oh! that was it! The main thread of this conversation (i think?) was whether the sundering had to have happened. And in turn if that internally made sense to the story/lore. And if it didnt, does this indicate lazy/poor/pressured writing?
