I’m thinking about the ran-jit fight again and how u end up killing him and how it still feels. not great that you kill him, but I can kinda see it from an eyrie pov of being the one to kill him

#it’s like. they already have this rage harbored for the man #but it boils down to them being in a place in ShB where they can’t trust thancred to make the choice to kill him #even if he really could do it. eyrie doesn’t trust thancred to actually do the deed #it’s also partially because they are more than happy to have that blood on their hands #they have no qualms about taking that burden on #knowing all that they do about him it’s clear he made his choice of the world he wishes to live in #the way he wants the world to be and the ends he will go to and the people he will hurt to uphold it #there’s so much ignorance in eulmore but he knows and yet he abides in it #he willfully lives in it and carries out orders at his own behest #he fully and delusionally believes this is the best for the world #which this puts him opposed to eyrie and they have no qualms about going against someone like that #there is no saving ran’jit #eyrie has a lack of trust but they do want to keep thancred safe from that choice #which is. very older brother of eyrie and kinda a messed up mindset #but eyrie and Thancred’s relationship in ShB is all sorts of mess #but beyond Thancred it boils down to Ryne as well #they will see ran’jit dead so that she doesn’t have to make that choice #to be burdened by it #even if there still remains the burden of eyrie taking this on for her #they would see her carry many burdens but not the death of ran’jit #so in a way his death by eyrie’s hand works #which is v fun for character dynamics #but narratively I still think thancred killing him would be better #shadowbringers spoilers #oc: eyrie kisne #I fuckin love the return to eulmore #and I can forgive the stuff in the upper part of Khoulsia because it’s not super terrible bc exarch moment #bc after it’s just go go go to the end of MSQ
