    We've lost like 3

    The scions were more interesting with Papalymo and Yda.

    We've lost 4 and possibly 5 depending on how you look at it:


    Louisoix
    Papalymo
    Moenbryda
    Minfilia

    Yda may or may not count since we never met her except possibly during 1.0. The timeline is unclear exactly when she died, just that it happened during the same year that 1.0 events took place. She could have died any time from before it started up to and including just after the battle of Cartenau. Even if she did die before we met her, however, we did lose her in a sense since we thought she was someone else. That aspect is more about 4th wall stuff, rather than her actual death though. If the metric is jsut that she was a Scion and she died, then it's pretty clear cut that she counts.

    Oops, I misspelled Yda, I must be thinking of someone else.


    I kinda assumed the Yda in 1.0 was Lyss, but I haven't directly experienced that. Yda being Lyss (or vice versa) kinda feels like a retcon, but I guess it explains some of her awkwardness. Maybe it was intended from the beginning.

    But those are some good points.


    I can't think of any friends being brought back from what was supposed to be actual death. There are a few times when their survival is a little too convenient.
