I’M RUINED
Watched Shape of Water
I’m in fish hell
Guillermo Del Toro definitely deserved all the rewards he got
If they all were under one goverment, or all three citystates had the same type of goverment then it’d be a lot better but Gridiania is a Pseudo-Monarchy (I think that’s how you would describe it), Limsa is a dictatorship, and Ul’dah is ruled by a council of the elite under a puppet Monarch.
Actions done by Kan-E, or Merlwyb (especially Merlwyb because she answers to no one but herself) is an action (even just healing raubahn) that represents the whole of Gridania/Limsa. And, even if they didn’t immediately hold hard feelings against them for assisting the alleged assassin of their monarch, and their co-conspirator/person who actually just assassinated one of their government heads, it could still lead to bad feelings that could fester and grow. Especially if there are any garlean sleeper agents whispering sweet nothing’s in their ears.
Not to mention, during Ilberd and Raubahn’s fight if Merlwyb stepped in to help fight him she could have ended up dead. Which would have destabilized Limsa as there would be a power vacuum that all those pirate leaders and wannabe Mistbeards would be more then happy to try and fill.
The emotional response in that situation was just really the wrong one. As proven by the fact Raubahn’s emotional response made that whole situation worse. If he hadn’t flipped the fuck out, and insisted on seeing Nanamo then none of the events post-assassinated would have happened.

Her and Kan-E “bailing” on Raubahn was the best option. Them intervening could have been seen as an act of war (via assisting the alleged assassin of the queen and their alleged co-conspirato/actual murderer) and could have lead to the city states going to war against each other.
Which if that happened, or even if they’re was any form of discontentment due to them intervening at the banquet, Garlemald would jump on that shit like a fox in a chicken pen. We already know they have spies within Eorzea that they could use to destabilize the region.
Them leaving Raubahn was ultimately for the best because what would have happened if they tried to help him could have been much worse.
And in Merlwyb’s defense; she was ready to throw down but one of her guards jumped in front of her and was like “hey, let’s skedaddle” and I’m pretty sure the rest of them would have wrestled to the ground had she actually attempted to intervene.
Uh, Limsa being a dictatorship isn’t really what I was referring too. I was referring to all the terrible shit she’s done to beastmen lmao
There updated patreon and sent out info regarding left over rewards.Back to working on commissions and farming dungeon in ffxiv.
Me: *banging on pots and pans* Square Enix bring back Merlwyb
Some twit: Errrr you see Merlwyb is actually really problematic and-
Me: *banging on pots and pans even louder* SQUARE ENIX BRING BACK MERLWYB PLZ
This post is pretty hilarious because the next time Merlwyb is gonna be relevant to the plot is probably when we head to the new world and then she’ll her most problematic.
