#he gets that Janos means a lot to Raziel too if he wants to resurrect him

Do you ever think about the fact that Vorador and Raziel were burning with rage the moment Janos died

#legacy of kain#lok#listen to me#no one loved Janos as much as they did I said what I say#do you ever THINK about how Vorador's behavior toward Raziel changed............#like he went from being wary of him in SR2 to let him enter Janos' tomb in Defiance.........#and I don't think it's only because Janos sees Raziel as the messiah#it's definitely not just because of that#he gets that Janos means a lot to Raziel too if he wants to resurrect him#and I think that they got this boy of mutual understanding you know#yeah uh I am normal about all that obviously OKAY BUT THAT TAG ESSAY

Yes

God

The moment you hear "Call your dogs! They can feast on your corpses!" and it turns what was a fun murder spree at the start of Blood Omen into an absolute *gut punch*, that's burned into my very soul.

I also think that for all of Vorador's cynicism, the very fact he gave Raziel access to Janos' tomb (do not get me started on the candles or the fact he would have had to recover Janos' body from the rubble or the fact he guarded it for CENTURIES :sob:) means that deep down some part of him still dearly and desperately hopes that Janos can be saved, even if he himself can't be, and that if Janos (who was worthy of vengeance and worthy of protecting for five goddamn centuries GOD) trusted Raziel then maybe, just maybe, Raziel might be able to do what he couldn't. And then he trusts Raziel to do it, he trusts Raziel to bring him back, and that whatever Raziel will do after bringing him back is better than letting his body gather dust after Vorador himself dies.

Help I am over twice the age I was when I first played Defiance and it STILL owns me ;_;
