Who knew the 6.15 Omega Quests… (Spoilers)

[CrownySuccubus]

In your past two replies to me, I've been struggling to see how your response relates to the text that you've actually quoted. I don't really have a whole lot of interest in Amaurot's system of governance, outside of the fact that I probably wouldn't want to live there. I don't think that you can argue that nepotism isn't an issue within their system, especially when we've seen several examples already, and the fact that it's inherent in pretty much any group that appoints its own members (human society included).

The members of the Convocation who went on to become the Ascians single-handedly killed millions across the seven worlds that they destroyed, all out of a feeling of racial superiority. And the bottom line is that regardless of what you feel about Venat's actions, you cannot ever justify what the Ascians did. Either way, you can conclude that the Amaurotians had their share of problems as a group, and it's for the best that they've been collectively written out of the story.

I believe that the millions of Ancients that were killed by the cosmic chess game between Venat, Hermes, Meteion, and (unwittingly) the Unsundered are unambiguous victims here. I also believe that whatever imaginary problems we try to speculate about their system of government don't justify or equivocate to millions of people having their fates decided for them.

As tokinokanatae said: at best, we're making the argument that "everybody was wrong".

If you want to take a completely anti-Amaurotian stance on this, then that's perfectly sensible. I think that most of the lore forums are tired of hearing about them anyways.
