was just ranting abt this in DMs but yeah I’ll yell abt it again here too. I fucking hate the fact they made Naryu into a liar re: Veya depending on player choice after writing NJ bc it makes no sense w/ her character, and even worse it can be fixed with one change.

I get that what they’re going for is the ‘Veya was so important to her she’s willing to break her own morals to keep her from harm’ angle, which is good in a vacuum and if you don’t have the context of NJ, but if you do even her own brother who she was close with wasn’t that important, and when given directive was able to do what needed to be done.

If Odral didn’t exist and/or their relationship was changed entirely from close siblings to colleagues like the rest of the secretives this wouldn’t be an issue!! this would be a fine character moment!! but because Odral exists in the way he does and bc Naryu pre-Balmora now has a set precedent that nothing comes before her duty, not even personal ties or feelings and yes, she’s willing to kill even the vestige if it comes to that one half of a fake player choice goes completely against her character!! aaarrrggghhhHHHHHHHHHH

I get the angle but it ONLY works if you only have the game's context for her character and not if you've read #any of the widely available online supplemental material. it's infuriating #saint.txt
