Heya, thank you sm for the ask Bard! <33

Noya Tabris

2. How did Tabris handle being told of their arranged marriage?

I do not like the implication that arranged marriages are the norm in alienages, so i always interpret "arranged" to mean that it is a very official and planned process instead of meaning "forced". Meaning, she was very involved in the process. Noya has a very pragmatic view of marriage, so while she wasn't eager to marry, she was chill with it, even if only to easy her father's mind and get the other elves in the alienage off of her case. Married people didn't have to be in love, after all, they only had to like each other and get along enough to live together. Maybe love even develops later, who knows. And since she and Nelaros got along just fine, she didn't have any objections.

Neira Surana

7. Did Surana/Amell favour a particular Fraternity? What did they think about Circle politics in general?

I'll admit i haven't looked into the Fraternities past my first playthrough too much, but i think the Aequitarians would be the ones whose beliefs she agrees with the most. Overall she preferred to keep out of circle politics though, and would usually avoid openly voicing opinions on any of the factions in general.
