Thancred... what are you doing? [3.1-2 Spoilers]

[Kallera]

As long as the WOL is involved, we are never going to lose. The most we had happen is us getting incapacitated or outnumbered and the Scions' worst thing was being driven back. If no one is the main character, a bridge can be dropped on them at any time.

it think its possible to pull "never" off, even in a mmorpg like this. whether the writers think the story should go there is the question. We could end up being too successful, with adoration of our abilities eventually becoming fear, or overreliance.
