Hellsguard and technology

[Kyran-Varlsen]

This was really insightful learning more on Hellsguard. Although, the whole Hellsguard forming an alliance with the Garleans in their war does not sit well with me. ._.
I don't look forward to having to maybe put down my fellow Roebros somewhere in the Stormblood expansion.
Still though, very enlightening. Thank you for this.

I imagine that Rhitahtyn sas Arvina, the Roegadyn commander that served Gaius Van Baelsar in ARR, was origionally a Hellsguard who took a more Garlean esque name to help in his rise through the ranks given that he was first a mercenary (a common Hellsguard profession) in one of the lands the Garlean Empire had conquered. That said, the descriptions above made it seem that the Garleans were recruiting auxiliaries and even mercenaries as opposed to absorbing the Hellsguard lands into the empire.

And frankly, killing such mercenaries should be less controversial than killing the conscripts stranded in Eorzea that we know would rather not be there (indoctrination notwithstanding). Just remember, whether you're facing Roegadyn or Hyur, if they are fighting you then they are either stupid or on the enemy's payroll. Killing the latter is business, killing the former is a favor to the world.

Not a very White Mage-y thing to say, but we can't all be Tanks or DPS.
