Tribute to Zenos

[Kolsykol]

Coincidently enough, Zenos in EW really reminded me of Joker from Lego Batman, which was an exaggeration of the version of the Joker that stands as Batman's opposite (not the only version of the Joker btw). The theme of 'I exist because you exist' is very strongly played with these villains.

I always understood where the hate for Zenos was coming from, which only made it more saddening that people basically wanted for him to be something that he wasn't. Something else interesting to point out about Zenos, is that thus far he is the only villain in FFXIV who accomplished his end goal (post 7th calamity).

I thought it was great when he respected the fact that you didn't want to fight him, I can't think of another villain doing that lol.
And he did it twice.

He didn't just want to fight you he wanted you to want to fight him too.

Edit: Obviously he wanted to egg you on in bad ways, but still.
He wasn't just out simply to kill you.
