That’s why it’s all hypocritical to me. She preaches about hope yet she had none for her own people, instead entrusted someone whom she’d only just met with the fate of the entire story on a 12,000 year old gamble. Sorry but i just don’t find that very heroic in which the game does paint her as. Just look at the minstrel’s ballad for her or the minion. There’s a very stark contrast compared to how Venat/Hydaelyn is treated vs Zodiark or Elidibus in 5.3.
