FF isn't really in the same ball park as GoT. I think the tone of 3.2 is important. In many ways its a retrospective plot where the WoL and Scions have to look at what they are fighting for and what that means and make some choices. Personally I think for me the final scene with Alphinaud was probably one of the most important because it was aan affirmation of what we are doing and as small as the scene was it was kind of a hopeful, drawing a line in the sand scene for me, not naïve, but not willing to give into cynicism.
