On Venat's Role in the Story

[Kozh]

Look if we are gonna equivocate fighting against an imperialist culture hellbent on conquering and "civilizing" the natives to...

*checks notes*

...human sacrifice...

then I don't think we should do this conversation again because I don't think it'll be productive to either party.

Yeah sure, feel free to ignore the other two. As if human sacrifice is an alien concept to the sundered anyway. Oh and also let's not forget how hydaelyn is prepared to let the other shards to die in case meteion isn't stopped.

I mean, I can always bring the "3rd sacrifice doesn't involve human souls", but you'll just deflect it with "oh, we're back to sacrifice chicken?" again despite having zero prove U_U

That's certainly a way of interpreting the story. We breakin out the craniometers next?

Hey, I'm just using fact *shrug*. Let's see.. Ul'dah treatment to belahdia, racism in Gridania, piracy in limsa back in the old days, mankind betraying ratatoskr, Allagan being cruel to even their fellow citizens, yotsuyu being sold as sex slave, the garleans being driven out from corvos and being bullied because they don't have magic. Do I need to continue?

Meanwhile, the Ancients only "sin" is apparently some of them are being indifferent to the creatures dying in a testing facility.

I can honestly say that if you came to me and said "I can bring back your dead loved ones but you have to trade a stranger's soul to do so" I'd tell you to hit the road. I'd fully believe you could, but nah. I love my family, but I'm not depriving another of life for that.

Good for you I guess? Congrats for having such a high moral standard(?). Meanwhile I can say that I'll most likely do it. And I know for sure I won't be the only one who think like that.

And actually let me ask you a hypothetical. If someone you loved needed an organ transplant, but you couldn't find a willing donor, would you think it right to go out and kill a stranger to save them? What if it was five people you loved?

Okay, I genuinely doesn't get the five people thing. Does that mean it's five people who need organ transplant, or are they going to be the donor?

But to answer your question, no I don't have the guts to kill someone directly, but I'll definitely check the black market, which is already questionable af.

Yep, she did deeply empathize. That's just a fact.

Ah yeah, my bad, I forgot she's either on delusion or just being too dense to understand how cruel her action is.
