also the players and aabria fighting in adventuring party is kind of funny and kind of exemplifies my problems with burrow's end. like yes the point is that the morals are grey and last bast is obviously not all good but at the same time aabria's trying to paint it like "well you just killed four (kind of) innocent people [they literally aren't why did she say that] without talking to them, trying to overtake last bast when you just got here" etc. while the first stoats were obviously antagonistic and she literally set up the coppers to be the police force etc., while the players are way on the other side assuming them to all be fascists, though on some level just trying to learn to survive in a place where the culture is radically different and seems sketch - but the fact that they immediately started to try and grab power at last bast is very telling, too. obviously this IS exactly the conflict of the story aabria's trying to tell, e.g. players/PCs thinking they're always in the right and coming into a community and taking over regardless of the people there (i know this has been better articulated better elsewhere ofc), and i'm not saying the solution is to have made last bast less antagonistic to the players bc i think having the greyness there is much more interesting, but... idk. it's not quite cohering to me
