man it's completely different bc Fordola did absolutely did War Crimes against other Ala Mhigans but maybe I (and Eve) relate to her so much bc, again, she's hated by her own people for trying to fit in with the empire when she was raised and taught that was the only way to survive and like. Yeah.
#personal;#raine plays fxiv;#sb spoilers;#i should make a tag for my musings on shit like this#like I've not commited any Huge Racisms or anything but like#watching the scene where the mob is demanding justice just makes me think#bc like. killing her doesn't do anything. that's not justice. it doesn't bring back the people she killed.#you want her dead bc she's a traitor. not bc she wronged you specifically (as there are many in that mob she didn't directly harm)#and I've been implied heavily by other black people to be a race traitor for being half white#and it is ENTIRELY DIFFERENT but I can't help but see me a little on Fordola#more than I do in Lyse#and Lyse better mirrors my actual circumstances but after very early SB no one pushes against her anymore#whereas Fordola honestly thought she was trying to help her people. she wants accepted again#for all she knows she can't be#(see: the healer role quests in EW)

like Ala Mhigo made her what she is just as much as the empire. she was a small child when first being called slurs. a child when an old woman start throwing rocks at her. and a child when they stone her father in front of her. That was all Ala Mhigo. They cast the first stone. it's not like Yotsuyu where it was a handful of people who did the worst to her. All of Ala Mhigo cast her out as a traitor for the choices of her parents when she was too young to understand or make her own. She became ruthless bc Ala Mhigans. She doubles down trying to be garlean bc her own people rejected her. like. Sure, she did war crimes. but was anyone ever punished for her father? do they still think he deserved that?
