What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

I'm honestly not sure why you're so hung up on that particular post but rather than engage in increasingly pedantic back and forth quote sessions, I think I'll simply refer you back to one of your earlier posts:

Its really not that deep. Moving on.

All I did was explain myself.
You were confused, so I explained it. Something others dont like to afford me

Another short story:

I think it's rather strange to describe the Garlean's dismay at losing their ancestral homeland as a 'grudge'. Not only are they unable to manipulate aether they were simple farmers who were forced to retreat to a frozen wasteland. If not for the presence of ceruleum they would have died out completely.

Furthermore the game isn't shy about forcing many nations to be a melting pot, so one wonders why Corvos cannot be shared by both Garleans and Corvosi alike.

Hopefully Dawntrail has Garlemald reconstruction since it really does feel like something planned and then hastily scrapped despite it being the nation in most dire need of aid - and I have my doubts that whatever is going on in Tural is anywhere near as dire as what the Garleans are enduring.

Hmmm - this line of text: "Thus he endeavored to separate the man from the myth, electing simply to introduce himself as the newest member of the Scions"

....except, aren't the Scions, 'officially' disbanded?

Could you quote the conversation (the whole conversation) where the scions disbanded please? Just so we're all on the same page.

Apologies, but I'd rather not. That has been discussed to death and a great deal of that discussion took place earlier in this very thread. Besides, I misread the quote from the story anyway and am therefore sorry for that too.

You did, BUT! There is still a quote in the text where Hien directly refers to G'raha as a scion. I was just a dumbass for not reading the whole text myself and having to be corrected by Cleretic.

On the subject of the Scions, the previous story had this to say:

Well considering what their plans for what the story was evolved between ARR and EW, it's safe to say that prior events, and the role they played, were reinterpreted and given a new meaning in light of new information. The aim would be to give the appearance of a consistent arc. It's up to individual interpretation how well they pulled that off.

I totally agree Lauront, it is a matter of perspective. Could it have been done more smooth sure, could they afford to add in content to make it more smooth who knows?
