Critical but constructive: An attempt at Dawntrail feedback [Spoilers]

[Malganis_L]

what i personally dont understand is why we needed Wuk as "hook" in 6.55
as we already had one with Krile wishing to find out the origins of her grandfathers letter.

without being preemptively hired (without real knowledge of other potential options and possible repercussions mind you) i think it would have allowed the writers to not constantly give the player the feeling of constantly getting dragged around from one mundane task to the next but at first trying to solve a mystery with krile while the 1st halve of the rite plays out seperately from us.
nobody would know we are the WoL, we run into the contestant, we see them doing there thing but we arent involved yet, Thancred and Urianger are still hired by Catboy, Wuk gets Kidnapped, Catboy asks for help because his to scions say good stuff about us, we find Wuk, we beat Bully Ja ja to1/2 health, but he does his blinding spell to escape... and now we get involved into the rites, with a far better understanding of the situation, actors and maybe possible consequences.

I think an answer to this is also explained by the plot - the "succession" is a main part of the storyline, and with it going on, Tuliyollal is very wary of outside "interference." It's our association with one of the competitors that lets us into Tural to begin with. Remember as well that we were also already on good terms with Erenville, so even though we didn't know Wuk Lumat herself, we trust Erenville, and Wuk has his vote of confidence. We wouldn't have been able to do any mystery solving with Krile without first being allowed to enter Tural in the first place. Even Estinien, as random as he is, gets personally invited by the Dawnservant for a duel, and it's the awesome fight he gives that grants him the pass to explore the northern half of the continent (which we later get when Wuk becomes Dawnservant).
