(I bolded and italicized the last part)

ONLY a bodyguard when going out not when inside the Waking Sands and Thus why he would not be acting as one when Livia attacked and killed them.

I'm glad I had an Alt at that part she's still at that part as well I just killed the nix and haven't turned it is.

Btw Noraxia, while it did save Minfillia or get in the way of Livia, it didn't have that big of a part up until that point. You may say that the part where they block off Livia makes it so but it really doesn't. It was just a senseless kill the writers did to show or try to show you that the Empire was Evil. If Noraxia had stayed hidden it would have lived and Minfillia would still have been taken captive as per the orders that were given by either Lahabrea or Gaius
So you're insisting that because the orders were specifically to only protect her when she was outside, that Arenvald shouldn't/wouldn't/couldn't express remorse for not protecting his charge? He's an honorable guy, even blamed himself for Krile's kidnapping. Very relatable to us. I doubt he's gonna lawyer his way around the specifics of swearing to protect someone's life. It's pretty clear that the writers chose to drop the Noraxia portion of his past.

Yeah, I'm aware that Noraxia's part was a bit part, but it was still more than Aulie's or A'aba's, and Arenvald's at the time. If you choose not to talk to them, you don't even meet them.
