It kind of is, especially considering how many people started playing because of the expansion.

This is the LORE forum. People concerned about spoilers shouldn't be reading here. Seriously.

I don't think he will.

If anything, Elidibus gave him the Auracite because Elidibus was the one who wanted to get rid of the problems on his side (that little clique we saw at the end of 2.0, the Watery Trigon; Lahabrea, Nabriales, Pashtarot). They were definitely acting up.

A quote, from 2.1:
"Perhaps Lahabrea may yet learn from his mistakes."
And when Lahabrea doesn't learn, that's when you get the frustrated Elidibus from 2.55, who gives Urianger the Auracite.

I really do think Elidibus intended for you to kill Lahabrea with it, not necessarily Igeyorhm. I think he believed Igeyorhm could have been reeled in, so to speak, given she had more of a passive personality than Nabriales and Lahabrea, if the more direct and brash members of her little group were gone.

But we killed Igeyorhm instead, since she tried to escape first.

The thing about Elidibus is that we don't know his methods. A lot of people seem to be projecting the methods of the brash, more impatient trigon onto him when he has clearly condemned them (and likely actively eliminated one of them). We know his end goal, but we don't know the reasons why or how he intends to reach them.

That doesn't really compute imo. We know where Urianger's latest Auracite is from, he told us that it's a leftover from Moenbryda. Besides, would an Ascian honestly and willingly go anywhere near an Auracite after seeing what we've used it for? Either way, I don't think Elidibus ever meant for Lahabrea to die, but one way or another, he seems to have very little feelings on the subject.

But he could easily blame that on the WoL/Scions for putting her in that situation and failing to protect her. If so, Elidibus's secret truth could easily at least put him against us, if not necessarily on the Ascians' side.

He doesn't. If you go talk to him in the Waking Sands after the 2.55 endgame cutscenes, he says something to the effect that he wants to protect the others. You can see the exact quote here. This is also why I don't think Urianger is someone who could ever betray us. His convictions are too strong, just like the other Scions', that they'd all risk everything to protect one another.
