Revelations from Patch 2.55 [SPOILERS]

[dragonflie]

Brass Blades storming the palace is one thing and dubious enough, but those Crystal mercenaries? Would be better if they had given them all Brass Blade uniforms. I mean, it does not really work out. The Crystal Braves were some strange invention of Alphinaud and the Scions. The want to accuse the Scions - and Alphinaud - of espionage. But the mercenary funded by these spies are now storming the palace, helping the Monetarists to seize power?

They had given the Brass Blades the total control of securing the city before the banquet, so it's likely that the Flames and Sultansworn guards were replaced for that occasion.


Another thing about the whole supposed conspiracy that the maid is helping Nanamo, while I was redoing the quest on my alt, there was a short cutscene when you see the maid putting the bottle and the cup on the table. Nanamo walks in from behind and says 'You not need to trouble yourself'. Maid says something along the line of 'It is but an honor to serve you.' My impression from this is that Nanamo really wasn't aware of the maid's implication.
