Him? No thanks, her? Sure.
♥ Baby, tell me, what's your motive? ♥
It would have to be a pretty big statue in order to see it. Papalymo was a Lala, after all.



I agree, we do need a monument to Thordan and the Knights of the Round in the place where we relocate the peasantry.

I understand the argument of "he shouldn't be considered any more important than any other Ishgardian who gave their lives JUST because he happened to be friends with the WoL", buuuuuuuuut... there are also the argument points of:
- We understand that the people of Ishgard all revere the WoL as their savior (whether or not they *should*, the fact remains that they are all written as if they, as a nation, unilaterally *do*)
- The people of Ishgard were very xenophobic and absolutely would not have accepted the WoL's help in the first place had Haurchefant not essentially cheerfully bullied them into doing so
- Haurchefant didn't sacrifice his life for Ishgard specifically. I mean, while he certainly did in the *general* sense, in the *specific* sense he did it to save the WoL's life. Which, if he hadn't done, the WoL couldn't have gone on to save them all (okay, okay, *technically* if we're powerful to defeat primals we probably could've taken the hit better than Haurchefant did, and we *probably* would have been smart enough to jump out of the way of the thing rather than trying to tank it like Haurchefant did, but FOR TRAGIC FAIRY TALE STORY PURPOSES, we're assuming that if Haurchefant hadn't have done what he did, that spear would've skewered us instead, because if we don't assume that then his death is UTTERLY stupid and pointless)
Because of those specific points, I could see how the people of Ishgard might actually want to pay homage to that specific character over other deaths.
*shrug*






Lessons from the EX battle: he did the mechanic correctly, but the rest of the party failed to stack with him. ;_;



I would love a statue of him. I don't think that it needs to be in the housing area, but in the turn-ins area it would be really nice.
