    I dont think there is a point arguing over Argos, I think it was pretty explicit that he remembers us from back then in elpis.

    The problem here is hydaelyn's behavior specifically in the Aethiric sea, it is as if something happened between the time we started time travelining and after that somehow made Hydaelyn forget us and the details of the past. Because before we time traveled Hydaelyn remembered a promise she made so long ago.

    So my hypothesis would be that something done during our latest time travel must have changed something. (Latest because if it is a loop, what if the latest loop is broken by some different action and now we are on a separate timeline which screwed with Hydaelyn's memories?)

    The importance of Argos in the whole scheme of things, isn't extremely important. HOWEVER. My point was that basically the story basically set up "rules" per say then just in a weird way breaks them. Is it super important, of course not but it does break you out of it when a scenario is set up and than forgets or doesn't account for how those guideline works - and leaves the person to make their own inferences. I just felt this was another example with some of the problematic story telling that does follow similar routes.

    I guess the best way to explain why it irks me is the same reason I remember how many people were annoyed with Chief O'Brien's Pips kept changing - since they established in the Star Trek universe a rank. Sure people can forgive the constant issues with the Space Time Continuum ...but man what's with them not being able to keep track of how many Pips Chief O'Brien should have?

    AGAIN, because people seem to take criticism of presentation as "I HATE THIS STORY" which isn't the case. I like the story, I just have qualms with how certain things were written and pacing issues as well.
