Bring Mikoto Jinba into the MSQ

Unironically great funny thread, and also absolutely has a point on just plain Ctrl F'ing Krile from the story. Replace one Sharlayan scholar with the Echo with another, with a more interesting kind of Echo. I legitimately see no problem with this.

Also, she's the one who mentioned never having felt love when confessing to you in Zadnor, right? Rhetorical question because I perfectly know she is, but with the way the fanbase treats her and Cid..... Give me my aro rep.

In all seriousness, I've thought about 'what if she were a main character' before myself. Her echo is interesting and could be used to enhance certain conflicts in the future story, though it could also be used in very annoying ways too. I don't really like the Bozja example, as it basically forced an element of tension that didn't really feel natural, nor did how we or anyone handled that information make any sense given the stakes.

I agree, she'd work well as a major character in the main story going forward. Perhaps replacing Alphinaud as our deuteragonist (2ndary main character) with her going forward? Having another Echo user with an opposing Echo (future instead of past) would be interesting. Though I'd suggest upgrading/retconning part of her Echo so her visions have tells that something is set in stone, or has the ability to be changed. But do not do something as stupid as they did in Bozja with it.
