question <spoiler>

Does anyone know if Hoary Boulder survived?

[Leowilde]

I should think so, or we surely would've seen his death on screen. I am more curious about what Tataru's odd smile in Costa del Sol was all about. :I

[Zanhe]

I think so, maybe I should rewatch the cutscenes and pay more attention to the details.

I'm not here to point any fingers, but like...

Omg, no. Just, no. No..? T_T

Edit:
Come to think of it,

she was praised for being good with numbers. Could she have known about Teledji Adaledji, the fundings and the Braves all along?

I had a bad feeling about that, also =_=

Unless she's being forced into the plot for some reason - such as being blackmailed. Also, that whole "I want to learn how to fight!" thing was a might bit sudden and suspicious. She seemed rather smirky/pushy with our character during that whole fiasco before the ACN training turned into a flop

Blackmail wouldn't cause that smirk, so I doubt it. Although it would've been way better than willingly.

I agree with the 'pushyness' - I'm inclined to believe she wanted us to see her fail with that carbuncle and all, to further strengthen her innocent image. Although I hope we're thoroughly wrong.

Edit:
It seems I derailed the thread a bit, sorry about that! >.< On topic,

I don't think any of the people engaged in fights and shown 'likely to not survive' will die, not now anyway. It would be far too valuable plot highlights to not show it - I believe they are merely cliffhangers for now, like with Thancred and Y'shtola, Yda and Papalymo etc.

Well, even back in the Rising Stones, she seemed smirky (but maybe I over-analyzed right then - and now) and practically pushing passed the warrior of light/us when exiting to run off for 'training'... but yeah, maybe I'm reading too far into that and it was just over-zealousness to get started).

Apologies, also - I kinda latched onto the Tataru thing and ran with it (since I thought I was the only one to notice her seeming 'off') x.x
Back on topic - Pretty much what LeoWilde said xD

I don't think Haory and Cont (can never spell it..) were effected right away - I don't think they were at the banquet (or, I didn't notice them), and if you talk to the people in Mor Dhona, they mention that the people still in the Rising Stones were punted out and arrested. They and a few others were probably arrested. What happens after arrest for being affiliated, no idea... hopefully not execution x.x

As for the scions - it's hinted that one (or more?) may have died via the ball of glow that appeared after Minfillia stopped (post Y'shtola's Holy... so I'm assuming it was either Y'Shtola or Thancred ._. ....or both). Unless I'm interpreting the ball of light as a passing soul and that's an incorrect assumption. *loves to theorize x.x*

[Catwho]

Too horrible to contemplate. But frankly, Tataru's behavior has always been suspicious, and at this point I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out she was Lord Lolorito's daughter and in on his schemes from the beginning.

I remember her being in 1.0 too, for that matter, but there was nothing unusual about her then other than being a secretary character who was something more than just background furniture.

[Leowilde]

She is one of the NPCs I really care for, if it turns out she is evil, I'm gonna rip my hair off lol.

[Kemiko]

D:
I will cry is Tataru turns out to be evil and "in" on all the schemes that was implied to have killed our friends.
I was happy to see Tataru (again) attempting to pull her weight in the Scions and be involved in her development. You already took Nanamo, leave Tatatu be!
