Minfillia Speculation

[Alisa180]

Why do so many people want Hydaelyn to be a 'bad thing' in some form?

I'm hoping, praying, that won't be the case. There have been so many 'grey and grey morality' stories lately that frankly, FFXIV with some semblance of absolute black and white is actually refreshing. And it still leaves room for greyer conflict, such as the whole thing in Ul'dah.

It's not that people want Hydaelyn to be a "bad thing," it's just that it seems rather apparent that she's possessing Minfilia. Even if Minfilia went with it willingly, the Dude still does NOT abide! That is not the behavior of a benevolent, all-loving mother goddess! (See, this is why I hate dealing with deities...)

Seriously, just let me beat the shit outta some sense into her. That usually works in these kinds of stories.

Some people might want Hydaelyn to be "evil," but they're weird.

I feel similar. There is plenty of grey throughout the city states. I'd like to have at some of those we side with be actually good, and not ambiguous. But taste is personal.
