As i mentioned in other Threads the enjoyment of a lot of the expansion seems to hinge on how much one enjoys Lamatis Character and the tropes she embodies.
I myself very much liked her and saw in her the probably best Ruler in a Fantasy Context with her having a good heart and all that. Koana was the logical choice from RL perspective but he has the flaw that went against the moral of the entire story.
And with where he ended up Tural has the best of both so to speak.
